• In the absence of time to do much in the way of [[knowledge commoning]] at present, I figure the least I can do is more consistently share my bookmarks.
  • A small contribution, but still better than them sitting privately locally.

born 1982. what generation?

Born in 1982, you are generally classified as part of the Millennial generation (often referred to as Gen Z in some contexts, though this is less common). The exact boundaries of generational categories can vary by source, but the most widely recognized classification places Millennials between 1981 and 1996.

why is it called millennial?

The term "Millennials" refers to the generation born in the late 20th century and early 21st century. The name originates from the fact that this generation grew up during a period when the world was experiencing significant technological, social, and cultural changes.

In particular, the term "Millennial" was coined because people in this age group were born around the turn of the millennium (the year 2000). This naming convention was popularized by Neil Howe and William Strauss, authors of the book "The Fourth Turning: An American Prophecy." They used this term to describe individuals born between 1982 and 1999, based on their shared experiences and cultural influences.

In summary, the name "Millennial" comes from the fact that people in this generation were born or grew up during the dawn of the new millennium.

• Managed to submit a post for the February carnival: [[Emacs Carnival: Completion]]
  • Quite a rush, but I learned a lot in the process.

• Of any assertion, it can be asked: is it
  • [[True to self]]?
    • Which self?

2026-02-28

• Now that I’ve got Emacs back up and running on my phone, I can try and get an entry in for the February Emacs Carnival.

• I had to get a new phone, as my Pixel 5a spontaneously bricked itself.

  • I got a [[Fairphone 6]].
  • I usually get second hand or refurbished phones, but here’s [[My rationale for getting a Fairphone 6]].

• Going through the process of getting things set up on a new phone.

  • My notes in my digital garden are massively helpful for this. Well done past self!
  • They’re a bit scattered though - I’ll try and update them into one page about it..
    • [[Setting up a new phone]].

• Trying out Vulpea.

The things you don't write are left unwritten
The things you don't say, unsaid
The things you don't show, unseen

For how long, maybe?
Until when?

• We had such a beautiful day with [[KM]]! And [[Lady Burup]].
• We went to the gym together for the first time in the morning, and then did a great walk through Zürich hopping from coffee place to coffee place and enjoying the [[sunshine]].
• Yesterday: [[2026-02-23]]

Algún día, algún día
Algún día haremos la revolución
Pero si no ahora, cuándo?

The things you don't say are left unsaid
The things you don't write unwritten
Until one day, maybe?

Las cosas que vimos:
Sucederán, sucederán…

Lo que dijimos:
Sucederá, sucederá…

Las jaras!
Las jaras, qué jaras?

Las de Avalokiteshvara
Las de Maitreya
Y Tara...

Tare tuttare ture
Tuttare tuttare ture

• Listened to [[Ian Angus: Why We Need An EcoSocialist Revolution - Socialism 2013]]

• [[stony caramel]]

• Noding this in my new laptop [[avalokiteshvara]] while visiting [[ZWZ]] :)
  • Last visit before going on a trip, likely starting on Tuesday night.
• Earlier this weekend I spent time with [[KM]] and [[Lady Burup]] and it was wonderful, even though I woke up with a headache (hopefully the last in this cluster) on Saturday morning.

• 7 ~ [[Avalokiteshvara]] in the [[Flancia]] pattern language :)
• Had a great day with [[KM]]! Despite sleeping little and waking up with a strong headache again — unsure at this point if it’s viral or what is called a [[cluster headache]].
• [[Züriberg]]
• [[Intuit]]
• [[Fondue]]
• [[caramel city]]

• [[Oh fuck]]
• [[caramel city]]

• [[Work]] was interesting despite being still half sick.
• [[Social.coop]] was great, we finally shipped [[1k characters limit]] after long! \o/
• [[Collected Poetry]] after long!

• Back noding!
  • I’m writing this in [[Bitwäscherei]]. The [[Agora]] is being demoed live for the first time! And I’ve met lots of cool people as usual :)
  • I spent Friday and Saturday with [[KM]] and it was great despite our health not being tip top at times :)
  • I feel more than lucky; right now, [[blessed]].
• Work has been fine actually; I was oncall this week and was sick two days but I pushed through and felt quite at ease despite sleeping too little.
• [[Las Jaras]] was special as expected!
  • I threw [[7]] * [[2^9]] over five dice, notable.
  • [[2063]] made an appearance
  • I ran [[collect]] after planning to for long and it felt cathartic! The [[chaos stack]] which was a bunch of literal back of the envelopes going back to 2024 was reviewed/distilled into a notebook and thus can be put away (or, as indicated in some of the envelopes as intention, [[burnt]].)
• Came after [[2026-01-31]]
• Saw [[Koch]]! And [[Aaron]] and many others.
• [[return]]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hQIxUfYw98
  • maybe during the week with [[KM]]? :)

• [[Las Jaras]]!
  • We were not completely healthy, [[KM]] and me currently, but I enjoyed living these days together!
  • I was home until midnight with [[KM]] (who went home in the afternoon) and [[Lady Burup]] and then went to [[Zentralwäscherei]] and I loved it.
  • I ran some [[collect]] I had planned for long (more about this tomorrow…).
  • I updated the [[moodboard]].
  • And coded and enjoyed!

2026-01-31

• Trying to finish off [[Emacs Carnival: This year I’ll…]] today.

  • Last day to submit!

• [[Adding shortcuts for entering email addresses in Heliboard]]

• Back to noding!
• Fixed a security vulnerability (to spam) in the Agora.

2026-01-17

• Went to the webinar [[Revisiting The Innovation Delusion — Conversation with Andrew Russell]] held by [[The Maintainers]].

• I met [[Omega Attraktor]] again today in [[ZW]]! Nice to see them, looking forward to listening to their music.
• Work after the break started fine actually, even though today I didn’t sleep that well for some reason I still had enough energy to go through the first meeting-packed day.

• Noding, #noding, [[noding]]…
  • I don’t know precisely how well the streak is going but I’m happy to be back noding at least a bit every day, most days :)

• Personal life is going beautifully, there was a small setback with a health issue affecting a loved one but things are looking up now!
• My trip to [[Napoli]] with friends was amazing.
• It was beautiful to be reunited with [[KM]] and [[Lady Burup]]!
• I found [[I don’t want my tool to tell me how to think]] very interesting, thank you [[@scalingsynthesis]]!
  • It also inspired me to fix some longstanding Agora bugs with [[canonical wikilinks]] (what we render in [[Agora Server]]…

• Will try to keep up the streak :)
• Saw [[KM]] after the trip and it was lovely! Unfortunately she’s been sick but now feeling better.
• I did [[Return]] day 1 as starting practice for the year and it was great.

• Back home!
• And back journaling, I will try to start a one week streak today :)

• [[Org Social]] has strong [[IndieWeb]] vibes.

  • P2P, host on your own site, etc.
  • I think it relies more on relays though. I don’t think you could directly mention someone like you would with a webmention.

• I also like that you choose an emoji for reactions, rather than a generic like. Like [[CTZN]] did it.

  • I think that’s a good way to allow reactions while avoiding algorithm pandering.

• Happy new year to all!
• Started the year with friends and loved ones at home; then saw fireworks together from [[Kaferberg]]; then went to [[Zentralwäscherei]] and greeted cool and interesting people.
