If it is worth keeping, save it in Markdown

p.migdal.pl/blog/2025/02/markdown-saves

I like the idea, but my laziness makes me avoid any non-automatic methods. I’d prefer a format similar to Mycomarkup or Markdown, but with built-in support for embedding images and other binary content, turning a web article into a single file. I’m aware of data: images in Markdown, but they’re not very convenient to use.

Author with cool visual style
Main page - https://johv.dk
He also uses Betula - https://links.johv.dk

For better or worse, I sometimes think. I have heard that I therefore am, but I’m unconvinced. Nevertheless, sometimes I write my thoughts down. Mostly just in my diary, but other times I publish them on the Web. This notebook contains those of my writings that are in a state somewhere between published and private.

When You Go Straight Towards Your Kryptonite

www.raptitude.com/2024/01/when-you-go-straight-towards-your-kryptonite

When perpetual avoidance is allowed, this familiarity never develops, and the kryptonite effect entrenches itself. The activity in question, however innocuous to everyone else, seems to wither your power and confidence whenever you get too close. Only by getting close despite the effect, and experiencing what dancing, algebra, or working with puff pastry is all about — rather than simply reacting to your old, scorned-outsider’s thoughts about it — can you neutralize the effect.
