Back then, the web was dotted with home pages — little sites that academics and ordinary people used as their online CVs or to discuss their interests. For me, those home pages were an amalgam of homesteads on the digital frontier and numbers stations.

Depuis quelque temps, il y a un retour en force de "l'indie web". Alors il y a clairement un effet de mode et de cool kids club, mais il y a des choses intéressantes qui émergent.


Petit tour d'horizon
 

Voilà, donc ce fil est dédié aux petits sites persos. Mon préféré: https://neal.fun

qui m'a le plus appris sur le world building de sf qui soit.

Atomic Rockets c'est une mine d'or. J'en avais déjà partagé des liens sur liborg la dernière fois qu'une discussion avait portée sur le FTL (et le vilain petit secret de la SF qui est que le voyage FTL = le voyage dans le temps... et que donc c'est niet).

Le billet vaut vraiment la peine d'être lu si vous comptez continuer à utiliser des bousins fermés proprio.

On This Blog as a Numbers Station

19 July, 2024

Over the last few years, I’ve started to see Random Notes not as a blog or even as a notebook, but as a numbers station. A tiny, semi-clandestine outpost on the web, transmitting to a small cadre of readers who get what I’m doing.

That outpost is nothing fancy. It’s nothing world changing. I’m not trying to make money from the words published here. It's just me sharing thoughts and ideas with no expectation of recompense. Or even engagement.

That goes against the ethos of many a blogger out there. The type of blogger who’s trying to build an online business with an avalanche SEO-laden content. A blogger scrambling to build an audience. A blogger trying to eke every pfennig they can out of what they publish. A blogger churning out post after post via some AI tool or another just to keep things going.

I don’t care about any of that. I’m more interested in sharing ideas with an admittedly small group of readers rather than catering to those folks just looking for a hot take on topic. Folks who drop in once and never come back.

I’d rather Random Notes be a numbers station, read intently by a few, than a bustling online property. That’s more satisfying on so many levels.

It’s OK to Take a Break

 

Giving in for one night and saying the hell with it, I’ll start again tomorrow, is fine, and you should never worry about doing it. The world won’t end because you say the hell with it and get comfortable for one damn night. And if it does? Well, shit, were you guarding the single button that was going to save the world? No, you weren’t.

— Warren Ellis

 

I know far too many people who feel, for lack of a better word, guilty if they’re not constantly working. They’ve become so tightly coupled to the productivity assembly line that they can’t step away, even when their minds and bodies tell them to.

That’s no way to work. That’s no way to live.

That can come back to haunt you. It did with me.

Before 2010, I was working a lot. I’d started my own small consulting business. I was maintaining three blogs. I was doing a lot of freelance writing. Five, six days a week. Often all seven of those days without a pause.

Then, one weekend, my body and my brain turned on me. I woke up physically weak. I was weighed down by fatigue. I was too tired to do anything except lay on the couch and watch BBC World News for two days straight.

That weekend taught me a valuable lesson: it’s OK to take a break once in a while. Now, when my body and mind tell me they can’t do something, I don’t try to push through the fatigue. I don’t force myself to do something. I listen to what my mind and my body are telling me and I step back.

I know that if I do try to push through, I’ll only be working at 20% or 30% efficiency. I’ll spend more time the next day re-doing what I did the previous day — the quality of my work suffers when my mind and body aren’t in the proper state.

Don’t feel guilty about taking a break. Don’t deny yourself that break. Sometimes, you need to step away. It keeps your mind and body fresh. It allows you to relax and reflect. In the longer run, taking a break will improve your work. It could improve your life, even if just a bit.

On Diversity
Over the past few decades, diversity has been an important topic of discussion and aspiration, yet in the last ten years it has taken on a more loaded nature. In my opinion, this notion of "diversity" is not genuine. It feels like a forced agenda being addressed through laws, workplace regulations, and similar measures.

Diversity is critical. There is no denying this. This planet is in trouble and we all need to get past our own bullshit, embrace our differences, and build on those differences to get along and help fix the mess we've made. For future generations' sake.

Diversity is a wonderful thing, when it happens naturally.

But when things are artificial and bullshit reigns supreme, like your pronouns, or being forced to hire from a specific group to fill a quote, or allowing full generations to believe they "deserve" stuff because they belong to this or that group, then you are causing more harm than good.

You might disagree with me, and that's ok. That's the whole point of this, we are different and we have our own opinions. As long as we can sit and talk about it, find a common ground, or just disagree and part with a good handshake, then we can fix the bigger problems.

Just think about it.
