@matthewlang Nice. I’m currently using Ink because it has an archive link (all posts). Your new one looks nice … if you can fit an archive link in there somewehre I might try it :-)
@toddgrotenhuis Of course you’d have to get the reference :-/
@jtr yes, but why? Who are the .docx files for?
I guess, sadly, not everyone uses .org :-(
@peterw to be fair, TOS took a few episodes before they figured their characters out.
@jtr I just stepped outside for curiosity. Yesterday I shoveled a path on driveway. Today it’s under 3 to 6 inches of essentially ice. Wacking it hard with the corner of the snow shovel just breaks chips off the top.
@jarrod Yeah, that sort of thing seems to be going ‘round.
I’m migrating my workflow to denote. A decade or more of old org files with a list of TODOs that will never get done. I think most are just moving to some sort of backlog. Are you using denote?
This is going to be useful. Thanks.

had to instlall denote-org (duh!). Learning…
@jtr Excellent. I was unaware of meta notes.
One thing I’m working through right now is tagging scheme: minimal fixed set? An unbounded set, one for every project/person, etc? How do you approach this?
@manton I’m still having issues. Spent a lot of time this moring trying to get a deterministic repeate-by, but it still seems non-deterministic at times.
I /think/ I have to convert “^J” to “^J^M” before pasting into the edit box on the web. It /usually/ works.
Whole posts wrapped sometimes.
@jtr already there. Now I’m trying to refine tagging system per @publicvoit tagging rules karl-voit.at/2022/01/2…
@jtr Yeah. I’m moving into denote at present. The more I learn, the more impressed I am.
Gonna be learning a lot more dired I think. Going to have to re-work my TODO workflow. ATM I capture most TODOs to a date-structured diary.org. Maype keep with links to notes as needd?
@ayjay Can I read that article as an RSS feed somewhere ? Only 1/2 :-). I’ve been crawling into RSS (elfeed, scoring is marvelous) lately.
@mark old workflows. Heh :-). I just admitted I’m no longer working on 80 column VT100s. visual-line-mode. curious.galthub.com/blog/2026…
@eludom I’m still having problems with markdown that looks fine in preview, and works just fine when exported to my old hugo blog (http://curious.galthub.com/blog/2026-01-19/) formats as a blob of wrapped text when I post.
See my current draft “This year I’ll” (if you can), or I can upload the .md
@manton No. I use the web interface. Something really weird was going on with that post. I think maybe don’t spend the time debugging it and see if the problem crops up again.
I did just put up a new post (“Understanding Companies …”) that seems to have made it everywere it was suposed to go.
@eludom It finished, but things still now showing up on curious.port111.com
@manton Thanks for looking at it. Trying to re-post the same article now. It seems to be stuck on “Publishing latest changes to your blog…starting publishing”. Hanging with the progress bar about %5 :-?
@ctietze my January 2026 Emacs Carnival post is here curious.galthub.com/blog/2026…
This year emacs-related goals include moving into denote, updating workflows, integrating AI where it makes sense and sharing more publicly. Specific packages will include denote, gptel, and likely something with Claude code. Still loving org-social. This is the year of the verb: “to emacs”.

@manton There’s some really wonky or maybe very slow things going on.
My latest post is visible on mastadon: fosstodon.org/deck/@elu.
Is not showing up under my domain: curious.port111.com
and is not showing up under Posts when I log in to micro.blog micro.blog/account/p…
Something is either very slow or broken.
Have a look? Thanks.

@jtr How goes Zen? I’m fairly happy with Brave, but it looks like Firefox/Mozilla is continuing down a bad path so maybe time to switch my backup browser.
@knowprose @knowprose “I just wrote a book on…” is a proxy for “a human who has spent a lot of time thinking about…. and can probably summarize….and teach me about…” in less time than it work take me to come up to speed or read the book
