Slow Productivity.
1. Do fewer things (at once).
2. Work at a natural pace (seasons).
3. Obsess over quality.

i added a night/sleep mode to my homepage this week. if u have a sensible sleep schedule, u will probably never see this mode ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but from 10pm to 6am your local time every day, the page will switch off the feeds along with most of the interactivity to encourage healthier web habits (tho maybe this is just a reminder for myself most of all)
the only thing to really do in sleep mode is look at the kaomoji/ascii stars and listen to a crunchy chiptune melody of "fly me to the moon" that i made (⌒_⌒;)

Some people here and on X have expressed outrage at parts of the opening ceremony of the Olympics in France.
As someone who is both natively French and a "global citizen" (lived on four continents, visited 50 countries, expat for nearly 20 years), I wanted to share my dual perspective. My goal is not to pass judgment on Friday's performance, but rather set the cultural context in which it was delivered. So, don't shoot the messenger. Also, references are annotated in brackets like this: [i] for further reading at the end.
The TL;DR is that the French brand of secularism (laïcité) is unique, highly idiosyncratic, and part of the core identity of the French republic; it's understandable that it does not translate well to an international audience.
Now, onto the 🧵: 1/9

@danicaswanson·19:32 16/07/2024
This lovely comment from @chriscocreated makes me wish for more sustainable ways to fund, organize, + preserve thoughtful curation work done by *humans* (not algos) in the FC ecosystem.
Psychologically, the hardest thing about casting for me is that all my casts vanish into the algo-driven "exhaust stream," never to be seen or commented on again.
I could compile topic-specific best-of recs such as @cameron's canonical advice-for-newbies article on a website (if I had sufficient funding for that work), but discovery would still be a problem.
There's value leak happening here because there's no viable "slowcore" + positive-sum path (AFAIK) to leverage the power of compounding for previous curation work.
What if I had a space to curate custom selections of great work in ways that:
1) reduce existing cognitive load for the curator (or at least don't *add* to it), and
2) maximize chances of discovery by interested readers at their leisure?
I know there are gigabrains working on this. Just thinking aloud.

Two weeks into my new job, as I wrote a Google sheets macro, I realised, “wait this is the first time I’m actually getting paid to do the shit I did for fun over the weekend”
Indeed, when I tell people how I learnt to do the stuff I do at my job, I say “yeah in my previous job I ran a magazine but I did coding / data projects on the weekend”
And I’ve recently realised that one of my side projects from last year could save hundreds of hours of work at the company too
Lesson: do stuff
