Adding 2 blogposts in the style required

[vikasnkumar]

@mohawk2 @duffee adding a PR for the 2 blog posts I am writing.

Things to note:

Dec 06: I think I did it right. The image being referred to at the bottom of the post has Github link though.

Dec 09: this references the previous Dec 06 post a lot, and since I wrote it as a gist all the links were to the gist. How do you change the links to be relative to the previous Dec 06 post. Maybe you have to do it.

Thank you for these, amazing work! I've adjusted that last image to just a relative URL to banner.jpg since they're the same image. I also had to adjust the verbatim blocks to not have a ``` but instead 4-space indent, since that's what Statocles demands.

For the second one, I adjusted the links to previous article to just be (../../06/finance/), and also I changed the which pdl2 reference to which perldl since pdl2 is now going to be a separate CPAN distro (PDL::Perldl2), since it has heavy external dependencies. I also adjusted the image as above.

@vikasnkumar Could you look at my adjustments to make sure you're content? I may cherry-pick the first one out separately, but I might not since I want to stay far ahead of the actual date to avoid risk.

@duffee Can you make sure you're happy? I want to minimise how rogue I'm going with this :-)

@mohawk2 everything looks good. thanks for the fixes. i also fixed another reference to pdl2 with perldl in a second commit. looks good to go from my end.

@mohawk2 since this PR was not closed, added the RSS feed link to the layout.
