Having a chat and learned that art students often learn about a particular painting by copying it. The act of trying to recreate makes you focus on the details you wouldn’t do otherwise. Got me thinking that something similar could be useful in code. Trying to recreate a well-known program, to really understand how a technique works.
Kind of intrigued to try out GuixSD. After reading interview with Chris Webber about it. Might start simple and just give Guix a go in my current distro.

Some discussion of Gutenberg and post-kinds support here: https://github.com/dshanske/indieweb-post-kinds/issues/190

Trying out the Gutenberg editor – fingers crossed everything still works reasonably well for an indieweb note post.
When you get notified that the file has changed on disk, and is different from your current buffer:

M-x diff-buffer-with-file
is very useful for seeing what has actually changed.
I tend to get this when I’ve changed something org-related via orgzly on my mobile while I was also changing something on my laptop.
I have pretty much the same setup for org-mode as this: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/98nkt6/tip_how_do_i_synchronize_my_org_files_with_my/
I wrote about it here previously: Go Libre: Task management with org-mode and orgzly
Population of Newcastle is around 300,000. For a point of reference, the population of Manchester is around 500,000.
Although I’m never really sure what the difference is between city, urban and metro populations.
