Good night, Internet!
Today was mostly spent on nosense, I didn't do anything really interesting today, nor learned anything.
I feel as stuck as possible.
I added a Holy C course to Hypercode, for fun. But it's not even *that* fun.
Random thought: Poems should be turned into music. Suno or Udio allow that. Literature is meant to be spoken, read, sung. It isn't meant to be read silently, or at least, this way of consuming literature is way too common. Some writers like Céline realized it in early 20th century. We did not make much progress since then...
Random thought: Let's say I had to spend 10 years on a piece of software. Even if that means 10 years prompting a codebase. Which codebase should it be? Linus Torvalds found his answer: Linux.
Oh, something interesting that I've done: listening to this podcast, with David Senra and Jason Fried (only a small portion of it, actually). Some idea was interesting: when you sell a business, it is very unlikely that you will manage to reach the same level of success with another business. Therefore, it is probably better to do something else, or not to sell the business in the first place. Another point mentioned was really that when things work, people do not really know why, even if they manage to invent a philosophy around its success. There is no such thing as *real* explainability in business. That's an interesing point of view. Maybe in another world I am successful. In this one, I'm such a loser ahah.
Why don't we keep writing, and writing, or at least journaling? The ultimate form of such thing probably comes from acceptable sensors, that would do that job for us? I'm not sure... I guess people thought about this subject, and some people probably already think about getting constant measurements of hormone levels, blood levels, and so on. As well as brain activity, ... We probably need to get to the point where we can, without interferring with our life, manage to get constant measures, and put our brains at work? After all, why are we even attempting to create artificial intelligence, when we can grow brains, and attempt to control those to perform... things, or not, I don't know, that's just pure nonsense, I guess; but it is interesting to think about it.
Buckminster Fuller.
I need to learn more about this man.
After all, what if the Socrates from Plato's dialogues was right about the dangers of (over)writing? I do not know... Dune from Herbert... That book should... probably? be sung? Let's try to do it with Suno.
I downloaded the Dune EPUB from Z-lib. Gave it to Claude Code, so it reads the first page, gives me lyrics in a Suno-friendly format, as well as a style prompt. Then, I put all of that into Suno, and here is the result. Good, right?
