Just posted my second 789 Serialized post. I’m not super happy with how I’ve set it up on Substack. But, no matter. I can move over in the future to something else. The part I’m not sure on, is a platform for multiple newsletters. But, anyway.
The piece is on the greek concept of practical knowledge and mētis. I sat down to code some text, and it’s the first file I opened. Rather than code it, I edited it, and made it much better.
It’s nice to something off, as I fell behind the last two days. Too many other writing tasks.
I also spent a bit of time updating my logging for this project. It’s a markdown file, that a shell script updates when I add a file to the filed folder. I could set that up to work with folder actions, so when I make a change in the finder, the script runs, and the website is updated.
In the meantime, I’ll post it manually.
Also, as I filed this piece, I realize it fit right after the section on the attarya and fishing in Mompox, which is the centre of the book. An accident, but I think a nice serendipitous place to put it.
