I have significantly restructured and simplified my site. Discrete Ideas has been live for ~3 months and over that time my vision for what I want it to be has shifted and grown. I am hoping that now it will be easier to navigate for first time visitors as I have removed the bloated number of sub-pages.

I am excited to see what the future holds for your site! How has your vision changed recently? Is it in connection to your recent entry in your chronicles?

Hi duvarki, it's more that I am focusing on the Chronicles posts as a way to write essays. When I started I expected I would write whole essays in one go - but its really not very realistic given the time requirements

I see, that does make sense. Mine took a year and a bit to write, so a more short-form way of sharing thoughts makes sense and I find it quite tempting myself. I just don't have many opinions or thoughts that I feel can be sufficiently justified with just a few words. But your approach does sound appealing, to share ideas as they come in order to compile them into a coherent essay if need be.

Embarrassingly I wasn't updating the dates for my RSS entries, they should be correct now!

Can't believe the CCP's Deepseek's touting out uncensored information. Asked it, "Well, Cleopatra should be a foreign power who has major sway over the USA. Any ideas?" The first name it spit out was ISRAEL. What our politicians deny the Chinese speak

If America goes the way of the Roman Republic, Cleopatra's going to be a Jewess 😭

I have kind of the same feelings as you, that not only am I unqualified, but I'm a catechumen myself. I often feel like its not appropriate for me to be a teacher and I have to carefully navigate that. I look at the content on my site as anecdotes about my experiences and how I got to this point, so that maybe other other people can find their way, but ultimately we have to point people to real teachers.

I think that’s a great way to think about it. And yeah I think it’s natural that people like you and I would want to share our thoughts and perspectives but my hope is that, ultimately, people go to an actual Church. Btw I quite liked your posts about the practicalities of actually going to Church from the perspective of a former Atheist - it can be daunting

Thanks. I wish I could say I had as much time to do page updates as I did when I started this. The time will come again, I'm sure. I'm glad you like the design. I sometimes feel like its rare for anything visually simple to be appreciated on neocities so it's nice to hear.

No problem! It's so cool to find someone else who is also interested in ancient Germanic culture, your library page (the Edda especially) has been very useful!

Hii! Love your site, your conlanging tools have been so incredibly useful! Many thanks for sharing them. The glossing one especially was a life saver for classics in secondary. Have you shared your own conlangs anywhere?

A theological telling of Star Wars. Cliché I am aware although the theological implications may be a tad controversial.

I had fun reading it! I haven't seen the Star Wars movies, but I think there is some truth to the monomyth idea

I can only vaguely remember seeing The Force Awakens, it kinda turned me off from watching the rest I think

That's your problem - I can't blame you for not getting into it if the Force Awakens was your introduction. When I wrote "by this I mean the six proper films" I excluded the force awakens.

Haha I see. If I were to start watching the series, where should I start? I heard someone recommend Rogue One before

Rogue one is quite good considering its a new film. But I would say two paths are best: Story order (Episode 1, 2, 3 (the prequels), rouge 1, episodes 4 , 5, 6 (original trilogy) Or release order to get the authentic experience (4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3)

Apologies for the all the page updates, I added little theme switcher!

2 likes

duvarki 5 days ago

it seems like the language and theme switcher are broken until the website's cache is cleared on the user end, which is a bit annoying. I wish there was a way for a website to force a complete reload or something

There kinda is! You can put a "?v=2" (or whatever version number) after the link to the stylesheet so the browser has to reload it again

Thank you! I have included it on my site, let's see if it works!

alternatively, a little JS in a script tag to append the date/time to the stylesheet href as a url param means you never need to update the version manually to ensure users always get the newest stylesheet.

Ooo that's a cool way of doing it! Does your website use that? May I steal it for mine own :p

You should be able to add the following code either in a script tag on the page, or in a global script.js file or something if you have one of those, which it looks like you do. document.querySelectorAll("link[rel='stylesheet']").forEach(link => link.href = link.href.split('?')[0] + '?v=' + Date.now());
