It’s a proof of how much technology dominated our lives, that’s for sure. Francis Bacon, the philosopher and not the artist, understood gardens as something divine, “without which, buildings or palaces are but gross handy-works”; gardens were first planted by God itself. Well, digital gardening is nothing short of divine, and as always it is paired with a human side. Here you’ll find notes, concepts, thoughts, writings and more. Be welcome.
Content Lists
If you prefer browsing the contents of this site through a list instead of a graph, you can find content lists here too:
Welcome to our living hypertext notebook. This notebook will continue to evolve going into the future and is by no means a finished product- as such, pages exist at varying stages of completion. Please leave comments to further the discussion and help direct its evolution.
All you need to do is click on what is interesting. This is a special trait of this website - hypertext notebooks are designed for exploratory browsing. In a linear piece of writing, all ideas would be sequenced into one narrative. In hypertext writing, the narrative is emergent and the ideas are associative. It is like a book where the pages rearrange themselves for you based on your current curiosity each time you revisit. For more on what this is, see [[Q- What is a hypertext notebook]]?
The goal of this research project is to find data structures and interfaces that support synthesis and innovation in a decentralized discourse graph. If you prefer videos over hypertext, see this video here (5:40):
Pages have tags to indicate what type of node it is, which is also color coded. Hover preview or navigate to the page to learn its type.
Builders: View this as a framework for navigating the idea maze, and form your own conclusions about the claims, questions, and trails between them.
Hover your mouse over a link to see a preview of its content
If a page is empty, look through its backlinks! If a page isn’t empty… you can still look through its backlinks! Those are all of the times where the ideas presented in the page were used in context.
If a page is not yet created, the hyperlink will appear to be faded.
When you see a faded hyperlink like [[@cataliniMicrogeographyDirectionInventive2017]], note that it’s a Zotero citekey, and if you take the text, separate out the words, and search in Google Scholar, you will likely find the paper for more information if you are interested.
Email hello@robhaisfield.com for personal inquiries or private questions, but please defer to public comments when possible, as other people may have the same question as you!

Personal Garden
!!! warning "Currently migrating content from the old repo"
During the school break, I’ll be working on importing and updating
content from the old repo into here, including old daily note entries.
You can track its progress here for more details.
This is where I cultivate my thoughts, take down notes on things, and more.
Generally speaking a wiki of sorts, powered by [[Foam]] and [[Material for Mkdocs]].
Meta
[[daily note]] - The meta (and also examples in the Agora multiverse)
[[ajhalili2006]] - Personal README and more in one place
!!! warning "Work in progress"
Still ironing out the documentation right now, apologies for missing info and links.
This wiki section contains documentation about how I use Linux in daily
life, from the distributions I use to workarounds I did for apps that don’t
work natively (yet)
The former two will be merged here and their former homes be converted into
redirect pointers (to not break backlinks in Agora), alongside some cleanups.
If you are looking for his Autistic Life Notebook, it is on Traumatized Autists Department.
!!! warning "Migration in progress"
After some time, I’ll be start to migrate wiki contents from the former repo into
this section (and other places) in the wiki.
{loading=lazy}
This section contains unhinged-as-hell fanfiction ideas, drafts for my blog that you shouldn’t go
other than the spoiler tag and cursed ship names, and even some politics and internet shitfuckery
in between (bet no one will dare to dig anyone’s digital graves) like Uzi Doorman in Murder Drones.
Don’t worry, he’s probably fine other than the regular internalized ableism and too much on
"beating himself up harder every time he fucked up" as (actually) Autistic (currently [masking like hell IRL][masking-hell-tweet],
but working on it behind the scenes) person.
Notes on how I use these words and phrases on daily use, among other things.
Some of them are imported/adapted from different communities while others
might be remixed.

Quartz is a fast, batteries-included static-site generator that transforms Markdown content into fully functional websites. Thousands of students, developers, and teachers are [[already using Quartz]] to publish personal notes, websites, and digital gardens to the web.
🪴 Get Started
Quartz requires at least Node v22 and npm v10.9.2 to function correctly. Ensure you have this installed on your machine before continuing.
Then, in your terminal of choice, enter the following commands line by line:
Fully-customizable parsing, filtering, and page generation through [[plugins]]
For a comprehensive list of features, visit the features page. You can read more about the why behind these features on the [[philosophy]] page and a technical overview on the [[architecture]] page.
🚧 Troubleshooting + Updating
Having trouble with Quartz? Try searching for your issue using the search feature. If you haven’t already, [[upgrade]] to the newest version of Quartz to see if this fixes your issue.
If you’re still having trouble, feel free to submit an issue if you feel you found a bug or ask for help in our Discord Community.
This knowledge graph is a work in progress that will eventually become a specification for the unrival protocol.
Unrival is a protocol that can be used to create bottom-up, distributed social credit networks. These networks can track the credibility of their member agents, whose actions may lead to accumultation or loss of credit (a proxy for credibility).
Agents of disjoint networks with very different notions of credibility — divided by political or religious differences, for example — can nonetheless exchange credit, because Unrival ledgers implement the recursive credit-commons-protocol.
The intended effect is the rectification-of-names. In colloquial terms, this means making sure things are what they say they are (at least within the confines of an Unrival network)
Ultimately, the goal is to create a foundation for effective decentralized governance. We believe in rules over rulers. And since Unrival is adaptive, principles over rules.
If you don’t know what the above means (yet), don’t fret: it just means it is a space that a community can build by pooling together resources, information, intentions. The Agora tries to integrate user contributions into a useful social (higher level) construct while preserving individual voices.
When you visit an Agora location, you visit a [[node]] in a shared graph — which depending on usage can mean a topic, a pattern, or just an arbitrarily named location. There you will find all resources that the Agora thinks have a claim to be in that node, either directly by name or indirectly by association. By default all relevant resources will be shown one after the other, but more sophisticated interactions are possible.
If you would like to join this Agora, please refer to [[Agora signup]].
The [[Agora Platform]] you are (likely) reading this in is [[Free Software]]. If you would like to contribute or are interested in running your own Agora, please refer to [[Agora install]] and consider joining [[Flancia Collective]] or reaching out to a member. We are a loose collection of people who [[work in public]] developing this Agora.
Thank you for visiting the Agora. May you be happy!
In the meantime, the old index stoa can be seen here: https://stoa.anagora.org/index . The same goes for any other stoas.
Perhaps they should be linked everywhere? At the very least.
I like the interface of this one better so far. Is that why you swapped them out?
Plantey
Hello, my friend! Glad to see you here :) It was partly the interface and the fact that it supports things like images and tables out of the box; partly that this is essentially a Markdown editor, and so it goes well with the Agora (most of the current users use Markdown).
Flancian.
As of [[2021-12-19]], [[stoa]] docs are auto imported into the Agora as full blown resources after ~1 minute from editing on average.
