I Deleted My Second Brain https://www.joanwestenberg.com/p/i-deleted-my-second-brain Every note in Obsidian. Every half-baked atomic thought, every Zettelkasten slip, every carefully linked concept map. I deleted every Apple Note I’d synced since 2015. Every quote I’d ever highlighted. Every to-do list from every productivity system I’d ever borrowed, broken, or bastardized. Gone. Erased in seconds. What followed: Relief. And a comforting silence where the noise used to be.
New VPN Service Can't Log Users by Design * VPN providers typically offer security and privacy as a service. They make it difficult for outsiders, including ISPs, to monitor users' activities. Instead, they require subscribers to trust them with their online traffic. VP.net, a new provider, takes a different approach. The company promises 'cryptographically verifiable privacy' by using special hardware 'safes' (Intel SGX), so even the provider can't track what its users are up to. Trust in technology and hardware is still required, of course.

DOC • The secret of good metaphors ![](https://m.stacker.news/98625) ![](https://m.stacker.news/98626) ![](https://m.stacker.news/98627) > # _we often think we use metaphors to explain ideas. Good metaphors don’t explain but rather transform how our minds engage with ideas, opening entirely new ways of thinking. When crafting metaphors or communicating complex ideas, our role isn’t really to explain what exists, but to cultivate spaces where new understanding can bloom._
Introducing: Webbed Sites (with <div>s) ![](https://m.stacker.news/98622) # Transcript ↓ Introducing Webbed Sites: Everything you need to build and publish your website, without having to write a single line of code. Just paste your existing design into your Webbed Sites account. From there, your state of the art AI assistant, Martin, takes over. Martin was trained on a selected corpus of uncensored Hentai, Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf, and the source code of **_Microsoft Frontpage 98_**. He knows everything a late middle-aged Java programmer knows about coding websites. In mere moments, Martin processes all your design assets, including your buttons, your links and your headings, and coverts them, magically, into `<div>`s. But not just `<div>`s, of course! There are also `<div>`s next to `<div>`s, `<div>`s inside other `<div>`s, and `<div>`s outside `<div>`s that have `<div>`s inside them. Our builder also has the capability for `<div>`s with nonconforming href attributes and `<div>`s with superfluous and incompatible aria-labels. Webbed Sites: The no code website building platform that really hopes you like… `<div>`s. Since launching Webbed Sites we've received a lot of feedback. Firstly, I just want to thank everyone for taking the time to reach out. Your comments are highly valued and appreciated. And secondly, I just want to say we are deeply sorry. The accessibility of Webbed Sites is not where it should be right now and that's on us, the Webbed Sites team. We know we’ve let you down, and it hurts. But please believe us when we say that we’d never deliberately rush out an inaccessible release, to save time and money, at the expense of disabled web users. We just didn’t deliberately not rush out a release, to save time and money, at the expense of disabled users, either. Disableds are a priority to us, and always have been. In fact, many of my wives are disabled. Some since before I even met them. I don't really know what else to say. It's not an excuse, of course, but please understand that we were under a lot of pressure and had very little time. Plus, of course, we had an enormous surfeit of… `<div>`s. - - - This is latest [WEBBED BRIEF](https://briefs.video/)'s creation ![](https://m.stacker.news/98624)
