This post might be cross-linked from the gemlog, but it's not gemlog. Wait nevermind
It will be the other way now.
After learning about Spring'83 from Michael Lazar's mozz.us homepage, i made a DuckDuckGo search for it and found
https://brandur.org/fragments/spring-83
That is a post on Brandur's "Fragments" sub-weblog. Besides it the website has an "Articles". Brandur also maintains two email newletters, citing
They're a small contribution to the independent web. Sent via the only universal medium of communication that we have (email) in the most open formats available (plain text and HTML), they're a tiny resistance to the continued centralization and confinement of content in closed platforms like Instagram and Facebook.
Brandur's index of "Fragments" is described with a
Stream of consciousness notes that don't merit a more dedicated write-up.
that I have, at least for the time being, put as a secondary on the index of the fragmlog I hereby started.
I had previously been frustrated with my gemlog sometimes getting real short posts and the real long ones and real bloggey ones getting interleaved with such 'fragments'. And sometimes I've had times of relatively real long stuff in the tinylog. I intend to close the gap.
Sometimes a gemlog post seemed long enough but it was because it just cited something. And sometimes it just 'cited' a bunch of code without any comments. That could have went as a tweet with a GitHub gist link of just code. Maybe "Fragments" are good for that too. For both. "That don't merit a more dedicated write-up."
At some point I even started a '/nascent/' section -
Nascent writeups - my barely readable freewriting on topics one can take over
which is a much different thing but was also a thing that could get at least an associated well-written short thing. To advertise the freewriting rambling.
I wonder if it will be yet another abandoned (uhh ugh) section
Permalinked, so can't disappear, forever cluttering the workdir index lol
Oh and I thought about fraglog but I don't want the 'frags' association here!
^ nothing here yet!
