Jorge Arango talks about his writing process. He actually co-authored a book on Information Architecture in 2015. This vid more about his latest. uses lots of paper notebooks Mentions 3 (obvious) phases in his non-fiction writing research structuring writing Says all three req diff tools. (he uses Obsidian f research)

Stage 1 research, vague idea about what topic, (s paper notebooks, index/sequence them) His book duly noted is on this phase.

Stage 2 structuring. mistake to go directly to writing. (vgl [[A System for Writing by Bob Doto]] ) Mentions author Robert Caro who had book structure on his wall story book like, vgl what I do when writing reports w wall of post its for structure. Limitation is size of wall. But physcial movement helpt. He does this type of wall in [[Tinderbox]] !!!! canvas, with the sticky notes having metadata. His chapter and heading structure emerges from it! Prevents getting lost in the details. Shows him what is missing too (looping back to research phase sometimes). It's not writing but getting a sense of the narrative flow of the entire thing. Seems like outlining of talks, but a book is bigger and thus the outlining is more filled out with links to material

What question would a reader have entering chapter 2 after reading chapter 1, and go from there. Has opening story/anecdote for each chapter. Mwah. Uses the story board view like how the periodic table suggested the existence of atoms that had not been discovered yet. Dmitri Mendleev.

Stage 3 writing After structuring the writing tools come into play. He used Scrivener, avoiding having a monolithic text. Now Ulysses, in markdown. Uses word count targets in these tools for sections/chapters

set up supportive environments for each pahse structure first but keep flexible, don't make it a linear process, but structure ulnocks the writing swith modalities - walking, free form in [[Tinderbox]] or another tool, to avoid getting stuck.

The bidirectional takes the form of linked mentions underneath a linked to note. That's common even in wiki I think these days. Any tools out there that link closer to like Ted Nelson proposed? Within a pkm tool bidirectional linking into a specific spot in a note should be somehow doable. Transclusion is a step further even, but if I can link to a paragraph, that paragraph should be able to link to where it is cited, no? In Obsidian the ^ link is still one way, while origin and source are known for it to work (the reference number)

George Gilder. Reagan era supply side economist, 85yo, Called the opportunities of internet tech relatively early, and wrote a book about Carver Mead and CMOS chiptech. Founder of the Discovery Institute and loud on 'intelligent design'. Not sure any of that qualifies him to talk about wafer sized chips systems.

George Gilder indeed calls for wafer scale compute. Article mentions the issues of one flaw meaning having to toss the wafer (as opposed to 1 chip cut from the wafer). Also says that bc of that wafer solutions are for highly specialised set-ups only (bc it's costly to end up with one flawless wafer).

WSJ article contends that chips will soon be obsolete, and replaced by wafers that function as a fully integrated system. I have questions (and most of the article is missing). Wafers are error prone, and while you can toss out individual chips cut from wafers, having to throw out an entire wafer is costly. Other factor is that whatever size you will have surrounding electronics too, making wafers unwieldy / brittle parts of a system. Also wondering about heat. Talks about 'suitcase sized datacenters'. I wonder what the technology jump is for that to be viable

did they also ask whether those mitigation efforts negate gains in efficiency / innovation reported for AI?

Interesting to see companies vary in their est of how AI will impact workforce. A third expects reduction (but not much, about 3%), 13% an increase (AI related hiring), 43% no change.

A third of respondents admit they've seen 'at least once' negative consequences of inaccurate output. That sounds low, as 100% will have been given hallucinations. So 1-in-3 doesn't catch them all before they run-up damage. (vgl Deloitte's work in Australia)

First area of application is Dutch electricity network. Ask S.K.?

It is not PUF, which is on chip, and sensitive to environmental factors, as well as taking space on the wafer.

the ID is added after the hightech productionphase making it affordable.

Sandgrain is key less and zero-K. ID is done through a (central?) server though.

Circumventing it gains access to just one device, not all devices that use the same chip.

The ID serves as a gatekeeper for access to the system it is used in.

Ebook version is 9,99 in Kobo.

The book aims for a cultural movement / ecology of knowledge in spite of the toxic platforms. Because those erode thinking well (title). Innovation now disregards the quality of relationships. (Nice, this chimes with my [[Menselijk en digitaal netwerk zijn gelijksoortig 20200810142551]] and the unfulfilled potential of exploring that congruence). The book proposes to review the mediasystem to make it align with democratic values.

[[Pensare Bene by Luca De Biase]] [[Luca De Biase]] 'a media ecology for the 21st century.'

New book by Luca, published Sept 2025.

Luca compares two books (his and Ferraris') in how they solve that relative value problem. Luca by proposing dismantling the dominant platforms and replace them with a multitude of others (as the volume of personal data aids its exploitation I presume, spreading it out means having to collect it and collection is costly if users don't actively bring it to you already). Ferraris proposes otoh an active redistribution of the value gained as political project a new 'pragmatic' and modern communism. De Biase proposal seems more achievable imo (in the sense that we're already doing it)

Often not acknowledged what Luca says here: that it's obvious that n:: the value of personal data is not intrinsic but w.r.t. to a specific context of use. It's relative (and that is also why data protection of personal data isn't absolute, but weighed against other factors.) Perhaps capture it as Notie.

This poisoning also plays out the same way when fine-tuning. This adds another attack vector also for existing models when they are used.

The paper shows that it's not a percentage of training data that needs to be poisoned for an attack, but an almost fixed number of documents (250!) which is enough across large models too.

It was previously assumed that a certain percentage of data needed to be 'poisoned' to attack an LLM. This becomes impractical quickly with the size of LLMs.

Poisoning Attacks on LLMs Require a Near-constant Number of Poison Samples in Zotero

Paper concludes most benchmarks used for LLMs to establish progress are mistargeted / leave out aspects that matter.

Former UKIP MEP Nathan GIll admits to being bribed by Russia to make pro-Russian / anti-Ukrainian statements. The person carrying the money, Oleh Volosjyn also has ties to Dutch extreme right FvD party. Dutch secret service previously stated knowing about at least one Dutch politican having been bribed. Possibly De Graaff, then a MEP for FvD

Main points: - Russia does not care about number of people lost, but cares about losing revenue. - Russia is a (imperialist) petrol-state, so Ukraine hits revenue there. - Ukraine's weapon production is increasingly independent from both US and Chinese production - Their drone production is fully home grown and has tight feedback loops to experiences in the field (home grown meaning that they also create their own pcb's from scratch etc.) - EU is funding / supporting that - Trump is words only, and is letting Biden admin sanctions run out without renewing them.

open source dependencies as supply chain risk and attack surface, vs how, here Obsidian mitigates against them: - reimplement small functions directly in your own code - fork modules and maintain as own code base - large libraries include version locked files - strongly limit the 3rd party packages that ship in your code to others

For those lockfiled dependencies have a process for updates (and for onboarding a new one), and don't quickly update what already works. Use time as a buffer: issues with 3rd party stuff will surface over time.
