Liking [[elfeed]] so far.
- A bit more setup to do though. [[Setting up elfeed]].

Found this rather excellent-looking site referencing some of my some of my info on how to publish your site with org-publish: https://drollery.org/build/

As part of the above saga of updates, I will now endeavour to update org-roam to 2.3.0 on spacemacs on my laptop.
- That will involve updating packages.

- That means I should probably also update spacemacs itself.
- One or both of those will probably break something.
- Yeah, already failing when trying to update packages. Sigh. Try to update spacemacs first then.
- Now: error message that I need at least emacs 28.2. I'm on 28.1. Sigh.
- Tried it from flatpak. That still doesn't work.
- I'm going to try building from source. That worked once before…
- OK, it wasn't that bad to be honest. The compilation, at least. Took about 10/15 minutes?
- Now installing 305 packages… annoyingly you can't just leave it unattended, as occassionally it asks to compile something.
- Miraculously, that seems to have worked!
-
I should find out if there's a way of pinning packages to particular versions in both Doom and spacemacs, so that:
- (a) I can make sure they don't randomly update and break at a time when I don't have time to do anything about it.
- (b) I can make sure they're always on the same version between mobile and laptop.

Found out about [[flow launcher]] after seeing it on a [[komorebi]] tutorial
- Makes tilling window managing on windows actually feasable [[?]]
- Read about the [[monist league]]
- Watched a [[robert brandom]] lecture about [[idealism]] and [[pragmatism]] from 2015
-
What I've elsewhere called the pragmatist version of artificial intelligence claims that there is a set of practices or abilities that are non-discursive in the sense that each one of them can be engaged in or exercised by non-discursive creatures, and yet which can be algorithmically elaborated into the discursive capacity to use concepts and speak an autonomous language. But fundamental pragmatism need not take such a strong reductive form. One might claim more modestly that discursive activity, from everyday thought to the cogitations of the theoretical physicist, is a species of practical intentionality, a determination of that determinable, and indeed one that's intelligible as having developed out of non-discursive practical intentionality, while still maintaining that it's a wholly distinctive variety.↩
