Looking at the Markdown note-taking/Zettelkasten/"second brain" software space and being really put off by the almost religious fervor around it all.
I have a variety of "things I need infrequently want to note down in a place I can reliably retrieve them later" and "ongoing personal projects that get picked up and put down as bandwidth allows, for which I'd like to serialize my work".
I don't want to save every stray thought. Most of my tho…

Diagrams of links and bands on 3-manifold spines and flow-spines
The Reidemeister theorem states that any link in $3$-space can be encoded by a diagram (a suitably decorated projection) on a plane, and provides a finite set of combinatorial moves relating two diagrams of the same link up to isotopy. In this note we replace $3$-space by any 3-manifold $M$ and we extend the Reidemeister theorem (definition of the decoration and description of the combinatorial moves) in four situations, taking diagrams either of links or of bands (collections of cylinders and …

Concerning the Responsible Use of AI in the US Criminal Justice System
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being adopted in most industries, and for applications such as note taking and checking grammar, there is typically not a cause for concern. However, when constitutional rights are involved, as in the justice system, transparency is paramount. While AI can assist in areas such as risk assessment and forensic evidence generation, its "black box" nature raises significant questions about how decisions are made and whether they can be contested. This pa…

Today in “silly billboards in my community”. The first is by the very “truthful” (/s) people at LNGfacts.ca. Of course, the word "LNGfacts" does not appear anywhere in the dictionary because it's made up nonsense. Just like the "fact" that LNG “makes Canada stronger”... like we're going to win the war in Ukraine with our LNG or fend off #TheAmericanFascist. (Note: LNG is a tool of fascists not the other way around)
This billboard used to say “BC LNG WILL REDUCE GLOBAL EMISSIONS”... with a link to ‘bclnghelps.ca' but that was so clearly a lie that they were forced by the courts to remove it and delete their website, but I made a website instead in their honour called: bclngburns.ca
Back to today's billbboard though... Here's a fact from February 2025: “European LNG imports fell by 19% in 2024 as gas consumption reached an 11-year low, thanks, in part, to renewable energy additions.” (#BCPoli #BCLNG #ClimateAction #ClimateEmergency #ExtinctionRebellion #LNG #NaturalGas #Europe #EU #Ukraine #Russia
