For a few years I’ve been authoring my website in gemtext, which has been helpful in terms of keeping constraints on the text.

When I started, my page was mostly lists of things so it worked pretty well, but now I’ve been adding a lot more text, so I’m not sure if it’s the right tool for it.

I’m considering whether authoring in neorg syntax would be a good fit, then it would already match my notes.

On the other hand, this might be the familiar friction of hitting a constraint and I should instead learn to work with it.

OK now what? Any reasonable legal regime dictates that an enterprise built on a theft should not be permitted to retain the fruits of that theft. Have we really entered a fully lawless era in the world of business?

Executives working on AI at Microsoft and OpenAI admitted what its critics have been saying all along: Large language models are predatory pieces of technology that have been built on what a Microsoft executive called “an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions,” and the “largest theft of labor in human history.” An internal Microsoft document said generative AI products have created a “doom loop” that is killing “the entire web.”

What if I were to tell you that Trump could knock any (or all) of over 20 million¹ European web sites off the Web tomorrow by picking up the phone to one US organisation: Let’s Encrypt.

We desperately need an independent, not-for-profit ACME provider in the EU paid for by our taxes.

¹ This is just based on one firm’s analytics (https://trends.builtwith.com/websitelist/LetsEncrypt/EUROPE). Others put LE use at 50-60% of all web sites.
