There is a digital setup which is centred on org-mode, and an analogue planner or two which I bought commercially. I'll describe how I ended up with this setup here, and also comment on the setup itself and why I continue to use it despite whatever flaws it might have. </summary> <author> <name>isoraqathedh</name> </author> </entry> <entry> <link href="gemini://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/gem-org-odt.gmi"/> <link rel="alternate" href="https://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/gem-org-odt.gmi"/> <updated>2021-11-22T11:04:42+0800</updated> <id>urn:uuid:602080ab-b3ec-382c-86cc-8b71fb758d42</id> <title>Writing all four ways</title> <summary> Over the last few months I've written articles in several different ways, although the final product is not very easy to tell. Having now performed this experiment (?), I can now discuss my reflections on how each of the writing methods felt like, and how I'm going to continue going forward. </summary> <author> <name>isoraqathedh</name> </author> </entry> <entry> <link href="gemini://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/ujmj.gmi"/> <link rel="alternate" href="https://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/ujmj.gmi"/> <updated>2021-11-11T20:33:34+0800</updated> <id>urn:uuid:736106f0-4bcc-3823-9255-674e25565d7b</id> <title>Ùzje Mahjong</title> <summary> Ùzje mahjong is a mahjong variant that is designed primarily for my conworld, Ùzje. It is supposed to be a combination of a number of other variants, along with a number of idiosyncratic changes that are there just to be difficult. This document is not a complete document of Ùzje mahjong, but rather a list of key differences that distinguish it from other variants. In general, you should be able to play the game if you have this document and some knowledge of either Riichi mahjong or HKOS. </summary> <author> <name>isoraqathedh</name> </author> </entry> <entry> <link href="gemini://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/aesthetic.gmi"/> <link rel="alternate" href="https://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/aesthetic.gmi"/> <updated>2021-11-05T17:15:19+0800</updated> <id>urn:uuid:555d9cea-8ef7-3816-8090-ffdbad45d185</id> <title>A particular aesthetic</title> <summary> One particular aesthetic that has always struck me ever since I grew up can be found in the textbooks that my school uses (and most other schools use). </summary> <author> <name>isoraqathedh</name> </author> </entry> <entry> <link href="gemini://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/energy-competition.gmi"/> <link rel="alternate" href="https://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/energy-competition.gmi"/> <updated>2021-10-23T15:57:38+0800</updated> <id>urn:uuid:3d2215b0-f25f-3424-8df2-7ee2956cd68c</id> <title>Kvetching about Bitcoin – a quantitative approach</title> <summary> There had been no small amount of consternation about how cryptocurrency and its current uses eats up a lot of power for relatively little gain.

A specific type of notation, which is the one most people would understand in the conventional sense of the word “notation”, is when the object doing the representing is written. Commonly seen examples of notation include those that represent maths, music, electrical circuits and even lists of key-presses. In this article I discuss how notation has shaped my understanding of things, and also propose a notation-oriented way of understanding something. </summary> <author> <name>isoraqathedh</name> </author> </entry> <entry> <link href="gemini://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/re/power-of-git.gmi"/> <link rel="alternate" href="https://isoraqathedh.pollux.casa/re/power-of-git.gmi"/> <updated>2021-09-21T13:50:15+0800</updated> <id>urn:uuid:dc7bc220-0b7e-38fc-8591-b3ff34f7c00b</id> <title>Re: Finally Understanding the Power of Git</title> <summary> This was greatly eye-opening to me.
