For the first week I worked and tried to put things in order at the day job. It was gruesome at times but also exciting.

On [[2021-08-07]] I am beginning 21 days of holidays. I intend to keep a journal of what I do and think during this period here in the Agora.

interesting discussion yesterday with [[kanopi]], [[bmann]], [[codex]] and [[james lu]] on tools for thought interchange.
- [[kanopi]], [[bmann]] and [[codex]] are all about [[standoff properties]], which makes sense.
- I feel there are two complementary approaches here: one [[markup]] based, one [[standoff]] based. They seemed to believe that standoff is clearly better, and they're into [[atjson]] in particular. It seems like a good approach and a good format to me, but I still feel markup has its place to shine and is complementary.
- [[james lu]] seemed the most open to a 'why not both' approach.

hypecronformity is a significant issue - or is at least interesting. if you consume the standard media product, you are by definition only consuming a single narrative! monocultures are so bad and unhealthy - though much of political division is a fundamental result of how we vote, and this may be why the US is doomed to fail, but anywaysβ¦
