- I [[worked]], did what needed to be done, but ended up with some relatively imminent things pending. Might do a [[pomodoro]] over the weekend (that's alright, I like to manage my own time).

My subnode for [[neil]] is a bit long and it's awkward my writing shows up on top of his -- sorry [[@neil]]! Will try to fix it.

- An unreasonable amount of my time today went on getting a monitor to display at the right resolution. [[xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed problems]].
sometimes I leave tabs open for entirely emotional reasons.
Why have these been open for weeks? What does it say that I couldn't get rid of them?
[[flancian]] was asking after my admittedly hare-brained scheme to organize my notes by the [[astrological houses]]. the impetus is entirely this:
The thing that's really beautiful about [[astrology]], about [[Tarot]], about [[palm-reading]]: they have crystallized a way of looking at the world. Divide up all your concerns in life into weighted categories, please. How will you do it? What is the [[Huffman encoding]] of your life?1 If it were me, an embarrassing thing to admit is that I could probably devote one whole twelfth to The Explaining of Systems, as with whiteboarded box and line graphs, or awkwardly non-linear emails. In a sense, divination is a way of reminding me to not weight these concerns too heavily: family, travel, partnership, romance, money, friends... each of these has its slice of the medieval sky. Intellectual concerns, work success, they have lines on the palm, stars and houses-but their part of the distribution is limited. The transient metrics that can define my day at work are nowhere to be found: Latency is not given a Tarot card, nor CPU utilization a planet in the sky.
Anybody else feel like johnny decimal would require way too much... idk, commitment? I guess now I have the bash skills to rearrange things if necessary.

I'll also here note that it is one of the great sorrows of my time as a CS student that [[information theory]] was given such short shrift. ↩

- I'm (re)building my entire [[digital gardening]] and [[personal knowledge management]] workflow. This means that I'll be inactive for a while here on [[Anagora]]. See you all (hopefully) soon!
