Conversation

How do you make writing a more deeply social activity, multiplexed at the level of the smallest possible thought chunks? I don’t mean more hyperlinking, transclusions, or awkward collaborative-writing games. More like longform that’s social the way a twitter convo thread is. 🤔

I feel like writing still lacks a compiler. Everything is at machine code level, making collaboration inherrently disruptive. With code github works becuse bug fixes are in a high level description of the work, while the equivalent of words on paper is machine-constructed from it

If only (tm) there was a way to write on a level where people can contribute tweaks to the storyline, and there was a machine that does the fleshing out to words, then it would also work like github.
