Group chats rule the world

sriramk.com

Which leads to the question: what makes one of these work? I’ve been a part of several groups and have tried to stand up many myself and I find the same patterns repeating across all the good ones. The best ones are a “forever dinner party” – good friends and conversation happening in perpetuity. They often share the below.

  • Gardener, not carpenter

  • Cooling rods and nuclear reactors

  • The n-1 group

  • Dinner party alchemy

  • Gravitational pull of a few topics

  • Size and Pruning

  • Shared rituals

Create a shared digital calendar with significant people in your life

practicalbetterments.com/create-a-shared-digital-calendar-with-significant-people-in-your-life

Instead of asking over and over again if she is working tomorrow. I just consult her very organised calendar — and when she wants to check if I'm free she looks at my very empty calendar.

マリウス . A World without Passports

マリウス.com/a-world-without-passports

The author tells a brief history of passports: they are very recent. China got them since Han dynasty, West got them since First World War. What about Russia? I think it was Peter the First who introduced them? No? It's always Peter the First...

Anyway. Passports are used for surveillance, and with the ongoing digitalization, will be used even more. Everything is tracked with no real need for the citizens. Something like NFT could be used instead. The author talks about age verification and phone contracts. I thought of NFT for medicine: the doctor doesn't really need your name.

What will the world without identification look like? Dunno. I don't really want to lose the ability to get back my money in case I get scammed; how would that work without identification?

Lichen is the simplest possible CMS for the web that is friendly enough for non-technical users. It is extremely lightweight.

It uses gemtext, a good choice.

Archive it or you will miss it

drewdevault.com/2017/06/19/Archive-it-or-miss-it.html

At this point, link rot is an axiom of the internet. In the face of this, I store a personal offline archive of anything I want to see twice. When I see a cool YouTube video I like, I archive the entire channel right away. Rather than subscribe to it, I update my archive on a cronjob. I scrape content out of RSS feeds and into offline storage and I have dozens of websites archived with wget. I mirror most git repositories I’m interested in. I have DRM free offline copies of all of my music, TV shows, and movies, ill-begotten or not.
