Thank you to folks like @andy_matuschak , @michael_nielsen @MoritzW42 @gwern for being pioneers on this stuff. Someday soon, this sort of thing will be able to be serenely woven into "serious" (we don't want to say...academic) writing online. The benefits are so clear.

but I'm not sure about just embedding a public Rem onto a Ghost post and leaving it there - mostly because I don't know how it would hurt our SEO, but I assume a lot (need to research this tho). RemNote et al are designed to be PKMs first.

in mind #1 (🥂), but it's too early for me adopt at scale. In either case, though, the SPC has to go all-in with a single tech partner in order to make content in the "mnemonic medium" notes.andymatuschak.org/Mnemonic_medium This isn't ideal for anyone, as while it's still anyone's game to be/

the market leader in "SRS for publishers", it's probably too late for *anyone* to be king of the hill in the PKM/SRS space. So why not decouple? We're far past the limits of my tech literacy here, so hoping

can help:)

You're absolutely right about this problem. I think a good solution will be malleable, treat this stuff as portable structured data. I've built Orbit so that it can become as a conduit to other contexts (Anki, RemNote, etc), but still needs glue.

A somewhat deeper problem is that I don't feel sufficiently confident that we've settled on durable primitives. This stuff's all still in an experimental place, at least in my mind.

Thanks for the kind engagement as always, hoping the afternoon timestamp means your morning was full of writing ;) Would you say a bit more to what the term "durable primitives" means to you? Im not familiar w term. (Or links if you've written on it!)
