  • reminded me of staying up way too late in Buenos Aires in the late 90s/early 00s

  • DONE happy about having added [[git reset]] support — this unflaked/fixed several gardens!

• [[agora server]]

  • TODO I don’t like how all the Logseq extensions render — items look awkward in anagora.org even after processing/removing, I’d really like to fix it

• [[agora bot]]

  • disabled hashtags in moa party room as per user request

    • I think [[matrix]] is fine having opt out for hashtag support, as inviting an agora bot to a room is a strong enough signal a priori?
    • [[opt in]] is still the nicer model for social media

  • TODO add [[opt in]] support in [[mastodon]]

  • DONE add [[opt in]] support in [[twitter]]

  • TODO think about whether to merge back [[agora bot matrix]] repo into [[agora bridge]], it’s awkward that it’s the only bot in a separate repo. this makes it harder to share code.

    • thinking about licensing, as I based it off an MIT repo (it is >90% new code now though)

• [[flancia meet]]

  • didn’t announce it, nobody came, but it was nice having coffee while planning the day :)

I find sudowrite a little intriguing. Remembering that college assignment where another team member gamely wrote draft answers for every question of the group assignment, and I followed behind replacing every one he’d written — because first draft psychological blocks are that hard… [[shitty first drafts]], [[anne lamott]] teaches us. computer first drafts?

Finally cleared off my desk, ordered a trackpad, and… can’t bring myself to buy a new desk chair, so we’re working on the theory this one was just misadjusted. (The "ain’t straight, can’t sit straight" thing is real)

2022-05-21

• social.coop tech working group working session yesterday was fun, like mob ops or something. With Eduardo and Akshay. Mostly just figuring out how to get new people added to [[pass]].

• Had a cool moment yesterday where recent readings (Neither Vertical Nor Horizontal, Red Plenty, Half-Earth Socialism and P2P Accounting for Planetary Survival) all seemed to coalesce into the same space in my head.

• Basically [[Half-Earth Socialism]] seems to be suggesting we need some planetary level planning system for avoiding climate collapse. [[Red Plenty]] gives some food for thought on what can go badly wrong with central planning. [[P2P Accounting for Planetary Survival]] investigates technology like distributed ledgers for a kind of middle that sits in between top-down coordination and horizontal freedom of activity. [[Neither Vertical Nor Horizontal]] is all about that need for a mix of strategies in the face of climate crisis.

• One of the hardest things for getting people away from [[legacy social media]] is simply [[network effects]] - if everyone else is on a platform, it’s hard to convince people to move away from it.

  • I find it particularly annoying when the only way to follow updates from your local council is on Twitter or Facebook. Strange to get local civic news via a global tech firm.
  • If [[anchor institutions]] / public bodies like the council, health services, police, museums, charities, etc, in a local area could be convinced to move (or at least cross post) to a local alternative, that would help convince some others to move too I’m sure.
