More that I'm a rank plagiarist of rank plagiarists ;)

Updated to combine the attribution.

Ha!

No, just a trove of connected personal notes recently compiled. But they draw heavily from quotes I've collected, so I could see how they could come across as artificially curated.

Made the front page and was promptly removed, so maybe too overtly promotional... thank you for the kind words though!

It hasn't been flagged, it's not dead.

It got eyeballs, it surged, it got pushed down. People that matter will likely notice to some degree, some here run their own analytics on what rises and falls.

Not a roaring success, not a waste of time failure either. :-)

For my part, I'm a fan of Gruen * but not in the trade .. I do have the power to flag [dead] obvious spam submissions and you passed my bar for minimal effort - no obvious green spruik accounts commenting inanely to boost traffic - an account with some history, etc.

If you're wanting to build rep on HN then don't be afraid to submit interesting material under this account that isn't just kupajo.com and kolyder.com .. this is a YC adjacent quasi independant forum with guidelines .. one of which is to avoid accounts that only self promote.

  Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity.

Ha! Feel free to share, print, etc.

Ugh, now I won’t be able to unsee that. Good call!

Thanks for sharing this. “Keep burning the candle at 110% … It takes something from you that you aren’t going to get back.” That’s something I’ve been feeling but haven’t been able to articulate after a prolonged sprint. It’s not quite burnout because it doesn’t erase your capability right away, but it takes a compounding toll.

Neither does burnout - despite the name it's not like a lightbulb burning out after which it's impossible for it to produce more light. It's an emotional thing where you don't want to any more.

Kind of you to ask! Just WordPress + a stack I've been using for eons. Easy for me to replicate and portable.

You couldn't be more correct. I wasn't actively thinking of DFW when I wrote this post, but his stuff is everywhere in my notes.

A DFW post I wrote: https://kupajo.com/david-foster-walleye-sic/

Thanks! Really enjoyed that post as well.

"I'm not writing it down to remember it later, I'm writing it to remember it now." Not sure who said that, but I think of it often.

Thanks for this! I had never encountered this term.

And beautiful website/content by the way.

You might already know the term Digital Garden, but I think it'd be of interest as well if you haven't.
