Isn’t it peculiar that we internalize mind–body dualism at such an early age? This happens when you intimately realize that your mind does not control someone else’s body or any other entity external to your person. A philosopher told me that.

The Greeks were clever. The Pythagorean “number line” idea of knowledge: the monad (1), dyad (2), triad (3) — is a sly way of grasping at complexity.

Humans think/reason by breaking complexity indefinitely into twos/dyads/dichotomies/dualisms.

The bar for making useful/smart sounding observations is kinda low. Rule: Take a complex thing, divide it into two parts, then as a bonus — express those divisions as a monad (everything is love/a force), and… repeat. Triads/Trialisms/Trinity and higher are undefined for obvious reasons.

Not a philosopher btw.

The Internet graduates from its primitivity once anyone can easily spin up and host a website. IPv6 and the end–to–end principle pretty please?

Here’s a great article that implements reading webmentions natively in hugo. There’s always a soul out there who has tried what you’re thinking about.

Aria is such nice nostalgia.

Ever wonder how some writers become very prolific? Hire a bunch of freelancers… Okay – I’m being a bit facetious, but having a proper drafts workflow is one important factor. The more drafts started, the more chances there are for completion.

Drafts on this static micro blog are somewhat in a sensible state now. My drafts are public since I’m too lazy to separate my content from the demo content.

Deploy or die? Whenever deployment times are reduced to almost instantaneous — that meme comes to mind. There’s even a card game. How magnificent…

NetSurf is still the fastest GUI browser I’ve ever used. It supports stylesheets up to CSS2. This static micro blog renders poorly since it targets CSS3. Maybe some fallback CSS2 directives are in order.

Media clips and text on a screen are obtuse. If that’s consistently true, then choose your poison(s): misinterpretation, miscommunication, misdirection, misinformation, disinformation, dissimulation, and/or propaganda. Everyone gets to play, but no one is immune.

Browsers are on a slow march towards fully adopting user options for standardized/algorithmic color stylesheets. Great debates over what color to paint the bike shed (website) will eventually end. Paint it (mostly) whatever color you want.

In addition to the invert filter, another way of quickly bootstrapping a dark mode CSS stylesheet is to use Chromium’s auto dark mode emulation as an initial reference.
