There’s an old article from the developer of NetNewsWire ( reader) that questions the idea of the unread count. You can’t read all the unread — so why entertain a time consuming mythos around that number?

It applies everywhere — What narratives might people create around the programming language % numbers on GitHub? Do they waste time thinking/fretting about their mythos? Fun to think about.

I now think (lost a bet) that there’s a pathology that drives genres (tags) in content propagation. If you observe people “consuming” content then you’ll inevitably realize that there’s an overwhelming consensus for just more of the same, but not forever.

Diversity and homogeneity

Organizing content “strictly” into genres is a compromise. Auto–generating tags looks like a trap though. Is this even a muse?
