@manton happy to hear about the new photo challenge! Thank you. But if this is a reminder, where’s the original announcement? I totally missed it.

@kevq seems like Google/Alphabet keeps Firefox afloat in case they’re ever challenged on their monopoly status. That’s just bad faith. For Mozilla to consistently pretend this isn’t happening goes beyond that. It’s quite insulting. Still using Firefox, though 🫠

@nori-pareli.bsky.social To say “the only people who really used Zettelkasten was Luhmann” is historically dubious. He just adapted a common academic process. And he had 2 Zettelkästen so which was “correct”? But I do agree that the general approach isn’t great for just collecting information (unless that’s the aim).

@jean23bean.bsky.social Great example of the Streisand effect. Thank you.

@bobdoto Optimal productivity. Arguably that’s what people like Leonardo and Leibniz and Walter Benjamin were doing. Their working processes may not have appeared efficient but they worked for them. There seems to be quite a lot of people around with ADHD. I suspect there’s a longing to just find the magic spell that will turn on ‘working normally’. But working abnormally can be enough.

@hyde thanks for letting me know. Fixed now!

@adders traditional blogiers hate that

@bobdoto I’ve been amazed how often some totally random idea I noted down becomes really useful, often, as you say, in association with others.

@ridwan good luck from Australia! 🦘

@techlifeweb it’s like we have to keep endlessly reinventing the ‘too many tags’ problem. Just when I get it under control, I start thinking: maybe more tags won’t hurt. That’s the circle of life I guess.

@ReaderJohn I grew up with the story that it was the Brits. Without minimizing the complexity, Europe owes those ordinary Soviet citizens an immense debt of gratitude.

@abcnewsbot.bsky.social Rhyming policy is the dumbest thing

@nori-pareli.bsky.social We’re all different and that’s a good thing. I have ADHD and my minimal version of a Zettelkasten is the only thing that keeps me focused and productive.

@numericcitizen I’m looking forward to your video about interacting with micro.blog across platforms - expect I’ll learn some helpful tips to try out!

@peterw I’m sorry I missed that book shop on my November visit to Wellington. Maybe next time. And you’re so right: mixing sci-fi and fantasy is exactly what has got us into the current mess!

@hermetic.com Amen to that!

@peterw I absolutely love that fantasy novel guide! Don’t agree with all the choices but the format is spot on. Also: naval battle in space with dressage?? I guess there’s a sub-genre for every taste..

@davidmarsden that’s a bit sad. Our local fish and chips is £2.50 cheaper than that - and that’s at the posh chip shop too. It’s £4.20 cheaper at the ordinary chippy. But maybe no one wants to know this 🫠
