@vgr Here's evidence that Lovecraftian horror isn't emotional scifi. All I have to do to experience it is watch a talking head with a laggy connection.

I'm eternally grateful for the ICANN .org fracas for opening my eyes to the way DNS had captured my imagination. Put an end to this loop once and for all.

Finally trying out Obsidian. Initial experience is a blank screen without bullets. Is the outliner view not the #1 feature? Do people use Obsidian for free-form text? I can copy a set of nested bullets from Obsidian to LogSeq, but the other direction loses all nested structure. Do others find paste working fine?

"States no longer ask if they can profit through a war of conquest, but rather if they’d spend less managing the disaster that a local failed state is by invading versus trying to manage the problem via aid or controlling refugee flows." https://acoup.blog/2023/06/09/fireside-friday-june-9-2023

"Macros work best in Common Lisp because image-based dev is a Galápagos island, enabling Turing-complete macros without a build system. Languages outside this niche should simply do away with macros. The complexity-benefit tradeoff is not worth it." https://borretti.me/article/why-lisp-syntax-works

The Handmade Network Discord is having a hilarious debate about what constitutes a dragon. Dragons are just like sandwiches! Who knew?! https://discord.com/channels/239737791225790464/436306224930226187/1110832951857528834

Image maps are pretty cool. Particularly when https://www.image-map.net exists. http://akkartik.name/freewheeling#resources The only issue: links use absolute coordinates. So <img> can't be resized.
