Want to have a “now” page (similar to other personal websites)

🚧 TODO 🚧 This is a note I’m actively working on.

• [ ] org-mode description, setup
  
• [ ] dark mode…
  
• [ ] org-publish setup
  
• [ ] local development setup (org-publish on save, live-server, etc.)
  
• [ ] Hovercards w/ Tippy.js
  
• [ ] Quotebacks
  
• [ ] Zotero (+ Safari extension,) org-cite, citar, etc.
  
• [ ] my advice if you want to make a system like this? Start simple and workable, and then unfold to something more complex.
  

(I guess some of this bleeds into my ⚡️ emacs config )

The ethos behind Quotebacks is one of the reasons why I love the product. Yes, it’s a great addition to my thinking toolkit, allowing me to store quotes without polluting my note-taking and thinking system. But it’s also a tool which aims at making the Internet a more generous place. If you regularly write online, give it a try!

what is humor? things that are unexpected, but in a “humorous” way? Ok, that’s tautological. But still. definitely something that I want to think about, notes I’m actively working on.

As a kind of meta example, while I’m here writing this note in emacs, I found myself naturally laughing at the fact that org-mode interpets the + signs in the encrypted PGP message in my org-journal files as a strikethrough, so parts of the PGP message are struck through. Even though strikethrough and org-crypt are both bona fide features of org, no one really noticed this little harmless, unintended interaction between the two (huh, there’s the connection to modularity!). Lmao.

Mentally bookmarking these pages – think there is some interesting “sauce” to be gotten from each of these.
