@manton Thanks - my site loads way faster now. But it seems to have broken the Search Space plug-in.

@fromjason ‘reducing’, not ‘eliminating’?

> “It’s hard to imagine the web without JavaScript, only as a collection of static, linked documents served by essentially passive file servers.”Isn’t client-side scripting the issue, not server-side? I’ve enjoyed using the Gemini Protocol via its Lagrange client (works with other simple protocols too e.g. Gopher). Maybe it’s too simple, but it’s also quite elegant. Excluding client-side scripting kills the benefits — but also some of the problems. Still, it’s hard to evangelise for these protocols. It’s like saying “Try this, it’s worse.” You either like it or you don’t.

@cogdog well OK, but that’s a very impressive pile of bones you have there! This is giving me a lot of ideas

@richardcarter H’m. There’s not clearly a single ‘best’ solution for this.

@brandoncarey this is a very interesting process. I’m a piler not a filer. I try to give the pile just enough structure to be useful - the Zettelkasten concepts help. Like you, I feel the best ‘system’ is the one that works for me. But there’s always room for improvement!

@llbbl Chord Compass is fun - thanks! I used to have a PDF that did a similar thing. It was a lot less interactive though, putting it mildly

@towittowoo thanks for this, and mainly for my future reference, here’s The Philosopher YouTube channel you mentioned. These signs often appear to me too. It’s strange but I enjoy going with the flow. Serendipitously, writer Bob Doto wrote recently about serendipity.

@amerpie was Woody Guthrie’s “Deportees” ever more relevant than now? Here’s a poignant version sung by some friends of mine.

@jbaty he doesn’t really have a sense of form and order. Well yes, that much is clear. Thanks Warren Ellis for making me look good.

@manton A recent Ezra Klein interview touched on this issue. Cory Doctorow spoke of a Facebook pre-cancer support group whose personal details leaked. They sued Meta, but they’re still on Facebook due to the collective action problem. Seems they can’t leave because that would likely end the group.

@comingupcharlie.bsky.social “seemed” is really working overtime there

@Miraz equally great: the llamas saved the thief from disturbing the five bulls in the next field 😂

@billseitz @bobdoto your guess is spot on: it’s the Zettelkasten subreddit, where I’m known as u/atomic notes. Haven’t got into substack.

@AndySylvester @chrisaldrich yes, when? The suspense is bad for my nerves

@marick A submarine? A subeditor? A sandwich? No, @bobdoto is referring to the Zettelkasten subreddit, where I’m known as u/atomic notes

@chrisaldrich that’s a great active use for a filing cabinet drawers that you. Also, weren’t those two and four drawer wooden card index cabinets designed to sit on a desktop for active use?
