Web views in 1.8 work just like any other Obsidian tab, meaning you can split vertically, split horizontally, stack tabs, pop out new windows, etc
this opens up new workflows for web research, or editing websites generated from your .md files

one fun thing in #Obsidian 1.8 is that it lets you browse the web in plain text — the "reader mode" is persistent as you click links

if I spent less time using Obsidian I might have more time to improve it, but then I wouldn't know what to improve

goofing around with some ui ideas for kepiano

music notation is hard for me, so I'm trying to create an intentional synesthetic connection between notes and colors in my brain
I made a new version of kepiano that connects via midi and displays the notes as flexoki colors (oh and there's a woodworking project in there too)

think of local-first as a hardening function
local systems should remain operational even when the infrastructure isn't... when the infrastructure comes back online, changes are synced
it's the same reason you might want a battery or generator if the electrical grid goes down

computers started local-first and will go back to local-first

CMSes are a relic
=> More informations about this toot | View the thread
Priorities for my personal site:
CMSes like Wordpress, Squarespace and Webflow add too much complexity and liability, while being less customizable. Friction has to be super low.
Instead use a static site generator like Jekyll, Hugo, Quartz, Astro, Eleventy, etc. Once you have it set up, everything else is a breeze.

this camera is 9 years old but I cannot find anything better on the market today

Here's a little tool I built to design Flexoki 2.0. I wanted artistic control over ramping while still interpolating colors programmatically with Oklab.
In the future it could be used to create more hues and emulate watercolor pigment types within the Flexoki color space.

Flexoki 1.0 only provided the a range of values for the grayscale colors. What I have been working to solve since then is how to expand the palette to a full range of values for every color, without desaturating the pigment effect. I'm very happy with how this turned out.
Flexoki emulates the feeling of pigment on paper by exponentially increasing intensity as colors get lighter or darker. This makes the colors feel vibrant and warm, rather than washed out.

The darker values in Flexoki 2.0 also follow this exponential colorfulness to maintain a highly pigmented, natural feeling.

Flexoki 2.0 introduces 88 new colors that feel like watercolor pigments on paper. This is a continuation of my attempt to bring the feeling of analog color to digital emissive screens.
Flexoki is open source under the MIT license, and already available for most text editors, terminals, and many other apps. Flexoki 2.0 makes it into a more capable color system for UIs and more complex projects.

You built a house on someone else's land, and then they tore it down.
Build a house on your own land. From there you can create roads, bridges, tunnels to other people's land.
On the web land is infinite. You can make your own land.

It is frustrating to be young because you have to learn how your own mind works... but once you get a good understanding of your mind you can begin to have a symbiotic relationship between you and your externalized brain.
Then you start to fly.
