Journal entries in the last 16 days

I’m [[sick]]. Nothing serious, feels like the flu. [[AG]] got it over the weekend.
- Working from home and catching some [[Meet University]] talks, although today only until 16. There’s an all hands later I may put in the background; I told my manager I was low energy and would focus on resting half a day.
- I cut my hair, which usually makes me feel fresher, and it did. I also shaved everything except my mustache, for [[Movember]] (is it still a thing? I think so)
-
[[work]]
- I woke up sick but I worked from home anyway.
- [[Meet University]] was good!
- then I rested after work, ate something, spent time with [[Burup]] and caught up with friends
-
then I thought about:
- [[cwebber]] joined [[social.coop]] earlier this week!
- I [[worked]]; it was fine actually, I had a late review meeting (I don’t usually have meetings on Fridays) but it was interesting/felt worth it.
- I met [[L]]! We spent some of the afternoon together. It was very nice to see her.
-
I then worked on [[social.coop]], scaling up (with [[Dan]]). Then I read/wrote/coded a bit.
-
I found a ‘task list’ (I have 7-8 at any given time, usually anything from a3 to a4, envelopes and forms and such that I reuse to write things to do later) which I sort of completed so I archived it. It had the number [[131]] on it, without further context, although it was close to a task related to Wikipedia in the Agora that I have advanced.
- It is prime in case you’re wondering :) [[prime/131]].
- Which reminds me about the notion of having prime/ be autopulled when n is a number. Hmm.
- [[Algún día]]
-
Noding from [[paramita]] and from [[nostromo]] while I work on the Agora tonight.
- I’m already showered and can go until the time I go to bed, probably early as I woke up at 6am due to double pages :)
- I’ll enjoy the ride for however long it lasts!
- I thought of [[2024-11-19]].
- I thought of the future.
-
[[agora development]]:
-
[[writing]]:
- I say I want to do more writing in long form/intelligibly to the average prose reader, but don’t often make time for it. Some time ago I said Sundays were going to be for this kind of writing more often, and I could try to uphold this today. Let’s see.
- [[letters]]: some [[closed]], some [[open]]
-
To test [[collimation]]:
- As it’s cloudy, maybe I’ll observe the distant LEDs in a construction crane ~500m away tonight.
2024-11-08

Back in [[Silverbullet]] after a few days only making it to [[codium]] — which in some ways was good, as it means I managed to carve out some time for some playful coding through the week.
- [[Stapelberg]] is now using [[Silverbullet]] as well and seems to like it as well although he did comment on the system requirements; I agree it can be intense in larger gardens. But still it is capable enough and a solid enough writing environment that it’s the best tool I know of in knowledge space currently.
-
Work was good, tough at times but I believe overall productive.
- I’ve been feeling and looking a bit tired lately so I started taking iron again, and might take vitamin D supplements (as I’ve been doing seasonally with good effect).
- Tomorrow I’ll see [[AG]] :)
- This evening after work I started working on the Agora and writing. [[Lady Burup]] is sitting to my back on her green cushion.
- Someone reached out over [[Telegram]].
- I thought about [[Ekumen]].
-
I did [[Agora development]].
- I iterated on more interface issues that had long nagged me/I had long wanted to work on.
- Shipped iterations in the [[themes]].
- Changed button location to have it make more sense given what it actually does.
- I shipped a fix to wiki.social.coop (the result of coworking with Dan through the week, it was great!)
- I shipped some layout/theme improvements to anagora.org, it felt great as well. I like UI stuff actually it seems, in the right dosage.
- I worked and I was a bit tired at times but it was good and interesting.
- The [[US Election]] news hit hard, myself and many friends.
- I spent time with [[Lady Burup]] in the evening :)
-
Back to work :)
- I had the day off but I decided to work anyway; the meeting load seemed manageable and I was able to carve out a good-sized flow block, so it seemed like a good idea to get the week started today.
- Ended up working half a day, which seemed like a good compromise; I ticked a few things off my todo list to start the week in good shape, freeing the rest for some critical tasks hopefully.
-
Thought about social.coop after work
-
[[TWG]]:
-
[[CWG]]:
- Also the question of [[matrix]] for coordinating work, which is met with resistance by some working group members only. For me interop is the clear solution, let’s see.
- I’m going to try to go back to keeping more of my todo list here digitally.
- Today was good; melancholy at times, but it ended up on high notes.
- Tomorrow I have the day off, but I might work anyway.
- [[work]] from home as a technician was coming to fix the sinks, it’s great after the fact like a lot of maintenance tasks! I hope to be able to do it myself if it’s needed again, let’s see.
- [[Ekumen]]

[[Feedback on the Agora]] by [[Eduardo]]:
- No hay jerarquías y no hay orden
-
No hay jerarquías:
- Nodo está en la misma jerarquía que wikipedia/wiktionary/results
- (Sobre las divisiones entre ágora y no ágora)
- Primero podría ir el ágora y después de adentro hacia afuera
- Datos y metadatos están mezclados
-
Líneas y "1 + 1 = 3"
- Espacio negativo
- Alternancia entre colores y grises
-
Dos grupos:
- info acá
- e info en otros lados
- Transclusión, etc.
- Quizás un tabbed interface? Mostrar que e.g. wiktionary tiene contenido relevante pero no mostrarlo como elemento de primer nivel.
-
[[Las Jaras]] is here!
- I’m trying to update the firmware of my [[8bitdo retro keyboard]] and it’s harder than expected due to the fact that [[8bitdo]] only supports Mac and Windows, but I’m making some progress.
