content: write real summary for each article
The pre-Markdown blog invented a summary by copying the first paragraph of text. Often this was nonsense or at least useless. The new Markdown-enabled present format adds an explicit Summary line. The conversion populated these with the same first paragraph that the old format would have used implicitly. This commit rewrites them all to be proper short summaries.

# Generating code

Tags: programming, technical
-Summary: A property of universal computation—Turing completeness—is that a computer program can write a computer program. This is a powerful idea that is not appreciated as often as it might be, even though it happens frequently. It's a big part of the definition of a compiler, for instance. It's also how the `go` `test` command works: it scans the packages to be tested, writes out a Go program containing a test harness customized for the package, and then compiles and runs it. Modern computers are so fast this expensive-sounding sequence can complete in a fraction of a second.
