@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Where do they come from, anyway? Are they somehow auto-discovered or is this a curated list?

@prologic@twtxt.net “curated” channels (you can see the guide to see the topics it covers), without the ability to fast forward, nor pause. You know, like live television.

@dfaria@twtxt.net the difference is that these other servers does not post several times a day with content that are not informative/interesting to people outside your academic context, which can be perceived as noise.

What @prologic@twtxt.net have done is what I would call curation of the service he offers to the world for free (as in beer). It’s no one right to have their posts syndicated to the frontpage of twtxt.net, it’s simply a gift he gives to the world and he is free (as in speak) to wrap is anyway he sees fit.

@dfaria.eu@dfaria.eu I hope you stay around 🌞

I’ve already implemented like 4 new features today just out of necessity with my !sample_curation project.

to start my sample !zettelkasten, I imported some waveform collections I had nearby: AKWF, Architecture Waveforms 2010, and WaveEdit #samples #curation #zet

implemented initial crate import in !weewiki. one step closer towards !sample_curation

I’ve recently been reading up on zettelkastens again, since it is very closely related to the ethos of a personal wiki system like !weewiki. The thing that interests me is the emergent patterns that come from linking things to things. Which is exactly the sort of solution I’m looking for !sample_curation. #halfbakedideas

saw this great writeup once on how somebody visualized data by drawing faces with them, and letting our brain’s natural face feature-extraction algorithms interpret the data. Kinda want to try to do that with some of these samples and waveforms I’m curating. #halfbakedideas

more attempts at articulating the !sample_curation problem space today. #updates

updating my wiki index, so some pages are not going to be featured there anymore: !MIDI_sucks !sample_curation !howyousay !sixtycolumnrule

Medium has changed their policy. Now, recommendations are controlled by curators, & anything paywalled gets submitted to them. This probably means fewer but higher-quality recommendations…

The ‘writing criticism’ curator wrote a review of MfoM where they claimed that the characters were flat but the plot was engaging. I consider this a success, since I was worried about plot (since I don’t ‘get’ it).

TFW people you’ve never interacted with already have you blocked on birdsite because you sent positive affirmations to Tay years ago & the shared blocklist curator wasn’t discerning.

Bad idea of the day: a system for sharing playlists of things that aren’t audio or online video, like themed triple-features or reading lists, so you can curate or browse that kind of human recommendation
