kernelsoe··on Is Twitter/X Down
Currently no posts are loaded on my computer/phone. Only skeleton + suggestions.
kernelsoe··on Ask HN: What team tools do you use in your startup to organize information?
Linking issues and doc is pretty much nice feature. I don't have Atlassian experience but I feel Notion databases slow to interact and with unnecessary animations and transitions. Sure regular Notion pages are fast to load. Coming from extensive excel user teams, Sheets is really hard for me to navigate.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Interesting! what kind of tools are you guys built and using for tech knowledge base?
kernelsoe··on Ask HN: What team tools do you use in your startup to organize information?
I think this is one of the core pain points. Google workspace is like being default for most startups tied to email but then GW don't have enough tools or high quality enough? I would rather use notion than writing in google doc for e.g.

I had heavily used excel in my previous job from project management to heavy calculations. One of the most versatile tools! I love spreadsheets.

Thanks for the suggestions! Non working results are fixed. (I think there might be other bugs too)

The blogs are indexing everyday and I hope to improve search results overtime.

I’ll definitely add these sites.

kernelsoe··on Show HN: Search personal websites (tiny search engine)
Hello everyone, I’d like to introduce an index of personal websites and independent publications called hyperlog.app

The motivation is to help others discover essays and opinions around the small corner or the noisy web.

Suggestions and ideas are welcome.

Wish you all to be healthy and happy.

kernelsoe··on Ask HN: Why are there fewer non-tech personal blogs? (athletes', architects')
I agree that tech has projects and ideas you could do yourself @home.

Now my question is ... why local structural engineers or other professionals rarely write a blog or an essay sharing their knowledge and experience or just normal expressive posts like you would see on mainstream social media?

kernelsoe··on Ask HN: Why are there fewer non-tech personal blogs? (athletes', architects')
Love to hear that your local community has a place to explore other than mainstream social networks.

"I don't know of any such community hubs on the English speaking internet." - Is that what reddit or discord has aimed to become?

I'd also love to hear this kind of community hubs websites from others.

"Also I don't see many traditional professionals as wanting to reach out" I agree.

If a young professional or a young kid read your blog on "Land planning/ Ecology" and inspire them to pursue career, it'd be great.

And that's what I'd like to mean, writing personal or technical blogs by all professionals to discuss, receive feedback.

kernelsoe··on Ask HN: Why are there fewer non-tech personal blogs? (athletes', architects')
Yes, you could safely ignore the stats, but it's the reality that facebook is extremely (I mean too much) popular in my country and that slot machine is packed with endless dopamine.

You are right. reading a precious book from them is an great exp.

Although writing a book vs posting a tweet has enormous differential, I think writing a blog post or an essay has somewhat between and constantly update-able.

As for me, writing an essay to share what I experience this month is a lot of work.

May be it's the same for others in general?

Sounds like a blogger.com ...

Sorry for the question. I mean,

- the web has become easier to publish compare to past. (creating your own website) - in sheer number, the personal blogs of developers', programmers' blogs are greater and it is much easier to follow their RSS. - I really would love to read an Architect's personal blog or an local barista's personal one and could not find on the web? (do we lack a directory or rss?) - It's not seems to be likely that only tech-savvy people write blogs and other occupations don't. Other engineers or accountants may want to share their stories (right now mainly through short posts on twitter, fb ...) - I could easily follow my university's retired reactor, professors and read their posts on facebook. But there are full of distractions (never-ending feeds of dopamine slot machines) and I mean why don't many people publish on the web? - I could easily browse my fav programmers' website and read, take note in peace without distractions and follow their RSS. But it's a lot harder to find an architect's weblog (there are but fewer than programming blogs).

I see. Having your own third level (or) subdomain with file hosting seems to be better than walled-garden. Let me ask the same question => why are there fewer posts about individually motivated essays rather than SEO (or political blogs)?

Making money from blog is not a first priority (making money by selling subscriptions or teaching courses is completely ok for readers, imao as long as the writer is motivated for sharing)
