reddit goes dark in oder to protest against the new rules.

The admins of each subreddit make them private, so the users can not use them anymore.

That's true: that threat doesn’t hold true for personal blogging.

Because we follow a person. That's all

Over the years, I've come to understand that consistency in writing is not only essential for improving my craft, but also for cultivating the strange and capricious creature known as inspiration.

I agree about roundabouts (=traffic circles) :)

I was once used to bullet journal, then I overthought about it and don't use it anymore.

I stick to a TODO list, but then I don't get this nice history and notes and so on. Maybe I will start a bullet journal over with these 5 symbols:
* for new task
x for a completed task

for a carried forward task
strikethrough is a cancelled task
- represents a note

No self-help-productivity-bullshit-post is complete without a list of tips, so here it is:

• Make it your own. Don’t attempt to shoehorn someone else’s solution.
• Don’t try to manage everything—that hardly ever works.
• Don’t over optimize. Task states don’t need 20 different symbols. Keep it simple.
• It doesn’t have to be an art project2. I know mine isn’t. Keep it functional.

It should be worth noting that I've been hyping myself up to make a public blog for about 4 years now. Unfortunately I have a habit letting my perfectionism get the best of me, and allowing myself to procrastinate things indefinitely. I realized I needed to just bite the bullet and get this thing started.

It took me 2 years and now I am writing once per year ... I have to write again because it's so damn cool. Oh wait, there is also shaarli :)

An introduction to publish on gopher. I should try it.

Ode for free software workers that leverage these awesome tools :D

Old blogs disappears :/ That's why it is also hard to find the content of the 90s.

Proposal:

It is imperative for online writing (especially blogs) to have a long lifespan. We can currently read books from the 18th century with ease. It should be the same for online content from 30 years ago.

It follows the slow pace of the software. The one's that evolves slowly are here to stay.
