Incremental Progress
May 08, 2017
I just want to write something meaningful. I am afraid I am not trying hard enough. Does that mean I am not trying hard enough? Why am I so attracted to the idea of individual works (individual as opposed to collective)?
I would really like to be a writer who codes. What I like so much about written works is they are usually individual endeavors and can express such voice. Movies and television shows are never so intimately tied to 1 person.
Ugghhh. Why did I spend way too much styling that blockquote!? It doesnātdidnāt even look good š”. I guess I didnāt originally know that <blockquote>
was an HTML element. So thatās something good that came out of it. But yeesh its so ugly. Hopefully it looks better by the time anyone may see it, which is probably not ever going to ever never ever happen. But currently it only exists on my local machine. /*// ā ļø ā š® ļøbe smarter about these things */
If you were to look at this page (Incremental Progress), you would be thinking damn thatās a lot of text right there in that there paragraph. Why has the standard for paragraphs, at least on the web, become so short? Is it our short attention spans? Nobody reads anymore! Thatās egregious hyperbole.
And have I spelled it correctly?
I want to see a new age of writing where the writer uses the page for more than words, yet mostly for words. Not quite a picturebook. I guess there are graphic novels and comic books. Canāt forget about those things. But still I am not trying to describe those things. Thatās a different category.
Iām talking much more textually focused than that.
So if you were to look at this post, you would probably not be interested in reading itāitās just another random personās raw ramblings. I know I wouldnāt. How do I write with more purpose? How do I make you feeeeel? /*// ā ļø ā š® ļøbe smarter about these things */
Oh damn itās 4:20 am ā.
|Revise|Itās not even my fault.Revise. I should get my revise component in here. I know I made one once. Hmmmā¦š¤, what should itās markup look like? Iām thinking emoji might not be best since it isnāt (yet) very easy to wrap things. Maybe something that is a mix of wrapping and emoji, {like this}ā
Also. I think I know what I am advocating for. The next generation needs to start taking advantage of the awesome creative capabilities that we have at our disposal. Itās not that hard to make something dope š. /*// ā ļø ā š® ļøbe smarter about these things */
I should maybe make components for the following things.
Shader
Random Idea/Random thought that should only very loosely be tethered to its home. Iām imagining a cloud that is held down as if by a balloon string. And itās only very kinda windy out.
Right okay okay Iām getting into it. Itās the linearity of stories that need not be the same as it always has been. Maybe. Imagine this as a story. The dark descent of a madman as seen spread among his cyber-presence. There are just a number of things. Projects? But everything is very narrated. All the in betweens? Sometimes? All the projects have their own commit histories, which, along with each other, and the code that is being written/projects that are being created, which have visual histories as well, everything is layed out in front of you.
Ohh I have an idea for how I should render Revise component. I think that is one of the most proper uses of render I have made in a while. I use it to mean far too different things. Kinda. Maybe.

Maybe not red. But maybe.
1 hour or so
Back to the shader
I should make another component that is commentary on other parts of the page. Might want to do this through regexes for certain keywords(that are preprocessed by whoa-loader
. Maybe.) That would be easiest way to reference other things,.
The Componentized Web is Going to be splendid.
WebGL everywhere could be kinda cool. Maybe not everywhere but more where.
