Goals

I have found working on this website to be fun and gratifying. The work is it’s own reward. Having the website has encouraged me to write every day. I write about whatever I feel interested in. My audience is mainly just myself.

I have always had lots of scattered thoughts. Then, I forget them. Then, I have those same thoughts again, and I never get any further than the first time I had those thoughts. My hope is that by writing down the thoughts as I have them, the next time, I will be able to pick-up where I left off. In this way, I hope to get further in my thinking.

I feel very excited and optimistic about this project.

This is how the goals for this site have evolved over time.

Goals (Archived 01/12/2022)

Originally, I was envisioning this to be a work-oriented Wiki.

But then I started a separate project to focus on work-related stuff.

So far, this has just been mostly a place to write notes on stuff I’ve read / watched.

Goals (Archived 12/27/2021)

This website is intended to organize useful things that I know. This is in service of three goals:

  1. Building something that I am proud of;
  2. Creating value for others; and
  3. Demonstrating what I know.

A meta-goal is to prioritize the above goals in their listed order. For example, I want to avoid doing something to demonstrate what I know, if doing so diminishes the social value of what I am building.
