I used to listen to marketing team say zingers like Because office floor plans I am very thankful to work from home now... In complete silence.

I'm listening to a lot of Tom Zé lately

listening to a lot of Tunic soundtrack atm

What motivates you to do it so badly? Can you find ways to explore that while only gently experiencing the self-judgemental bits?

I used to write a lot. I had a permanent tab on Sublime Text constantly open where I would put all of my thoughts into. After switching editors I sort of stopped doing that. I want to get back into that habit, perhaps textlog is an opportunity to do so. Of course I was bad at it but it didn’t matter. Not until I articulated a thought into text it became concrete, and then I could analyze its structure and meaning. Nonsense mostly and delusions, if someone reads them. But they made sense to me.

I think reading helps quite a bit, especially writing about what you’ve read, even to yourself, just so you can go through the process of having to explain something that you’re only recently familiar with. There’s something about that process that seems to be helpful, at least to me.

Same. The way I consume information influences how I think. Short form content makes my thinking fragmented without a clear structure. I feel that fragmented thinking won't lead to convincing writing. And I'm trying to regain some of that lost control.

I think short urls are still memorable and good. My phone doesn't surrogate all of my recall.

The longer the text you need to store, the bigger a QR code needs to be in order to scan reliably. Also, you might be more confident in being able to keep a short URL stable (it's already a step of indirection, so if you want to reorg your site you can just update where the short URL points to). But people don't really take care to maintain short URLs anyway, apparently.

As others have said, this made me join (textlog has been open in a tab for weeks now without my creating an account). I'm on the fence about timestamps but everything else is great. The lack of dopamine from not being able to like or get liked is both painful and incredibly freeing. Also, I LOVE the design of this site.

numbers In a past life, when I was a statistician, I often though that the primary goal of statistics was to communicate numerical ideas without actually using any numbers. Numbers make people anxious, manufacture false certainty, project false confidence. They invariably appear to say something that's related to but not quite exactly the truth. I love the experiment of just not having them. I also wonder about the experiment of: could something fuzzier, less fraught replace them?

Да видим как ще се справи с Българският, че съм виждал големи плетеници с автоматичен превод и не бих се учудил и ако сега е така! Много яка функция би било обаче ако работи.

좋은 문장입니다.

I use Ubuntu with the default Gnome Desktop. I like it a lot and it just works. I've been using it since the beginning. It is not perfect (what distro is?) but it works fine for me.

I absolutely love #nixosnotesfollow for fact you can just rebuild into a clean state at any moment. I also share configs between 2 linux devices and 2 mac devices. Initially started with hyprland, but eventually switched to kde plasma. Nixos without LLM's would have been a pain tho, so would definitely recommend using one.

Ubuntu or Linux Mint with Cinnamon and i3 alternating as window managers here

Arch Linux with KDE. I like that Arch comes with nothing and is pretty vanilla. No bloat, and customisable. No major upgrades where 5 things break at once. Install once, and it's fine until the device has to be replaced. Only then usually do a fresh install. It's up to date, still pretty boring, and you learn a bit in the process.

i distro hoped a lot. Finally i found my cozy home with debian with kde. 3 years still running without a problem all the software i use works perfectly and the games run smoothly.
