Exploring the intertwingularity of a docs site.
Hierarchical and sequential structures, especially popular since Gutenberg, are usually forced and artificial. Intertwingularity is not generally acknowledged—people keep pretending they can make things hierarchical, categorizable and sequential when they can’t.

Some long-needed server 💙
Just upgraded from Debian 11 to 12. And while I was at it rescaled the vServer at Hetzner from two cores to four – which is even cheaper: I save about four €uros per month. And it was just a few clicks. Oddly satisfying.
Update: Why certainly, there were some (not so obvious) issues:
- SSH users moved from the
_sshgroup in /etc/groups toAllowUsersin /etc/ssh/sshd_config - spamd was not installed, anymore
- dovecot had a permission issue with an acme.sh certificate
- I had to rebuild the json3k services
Through the mail issues I found several ancient mbox files in /var/mail that contained messages that must have been slipped through the milter, probably at a time the mail server was configured with maildrop (now it’s procmail). Spring Fall cleaning FTW!

Language models are trained by a simple trick.
We give them a line of text and ask them, “What comes next?”
We do this over and over again, and eventually, they learn to complete the line.
By this trick language models have learned to write poetry, prose, and quantum physics. It works because in text, as in life, what’s past is prologue.
