Silly prediction, #npm ecosystem and supply chain attacks: some developers will throw their hands up, and say "Claude, dupe the functionality of these packages, so we no longer depend on them" basically a self-silo, self-defensive move. (not what I would do today, but I can see how some would)

and a peek at :json: protocol, where we might get multiple fields, for use in making a lightbox or a lens (or just thumbnails alongside a menu....) that's all for now, except to say "look, a link does not have to be this fixed thing that just goes to one place.. we've been doing that 35 years!"

I am working away at alap 3.2, which will support local obsidian vaults... but also, one needs to get data into a vault in the first place :) so, alap 3.1 handles some #atproto and can call into json apis (and can use this to make a menu, a lightbox, or a lens) and obsidian is next

snapshot of conversions that I am writing to get data into an obsidian vault, so that alap can query obsidian, as part of a dynamic menu

supported types are: plain markdown files, and:
Known plugins: `hugo`, `jekyll`, `mkdocs`, `docusaurus`. Unknown names warn and are dropped.
also, rss feeds

My new name for LinkedIn is "Bad Takes as a Disservice". Am looking for recs on SF Bay / West Coast Slacks / Discords for creative / techy folks. also posting: SHA256 of private authorship proof file e1a8ae594ab7b0a042d1623f641134f922ddfc7345e522ccf65e67f5b8dab065

wondering about #artemis videography.. didnt they take a lunar telescope to continuously video record? Seems a long way to go, just to rely on a few Nikons (w/400mm lens) and a few SD cards... I mean, we'll get great images, but I would think they would be recording terabytes of telescope (?)

My new post on Medium about alap gist is: we have had 35 years of static links, one target. I think we can improve on that, and do so in an open format. ...and we can dynamically call @atproto.com endpoints, while we're at it. alap.info javajoint.medium.com/alap-v3-reth...

Alap v3 — Rethinking the Humble Link

For 35 years, the anchor tag has worked the same way: one link, one destination, chosen by the author. It’s so fundamental we stopped…
