I am starting a new parent project of the many bots I run, I call it “N.O.I.C.E” - Network of Inter-connected Content Engines.

I have a lot more to say about this, a lot of thoughts in this are enabled by experimentation with Cursor and engines like Flask that allow for the management of Python stuff on the web.

Like having a management dashboard of bots, with logs, test results, output examples, etc… that would be insane and I think totally doable.

A sample front-end with built from the laziest prompts on earth. The spirit of this though is kind of what I’m interested in.

I also want to experiment with the degree to which these bots can talk and reference each other in different mediums.

Anyway, to me, this larger perspective is far more interesting than the individual bots. Like the output of “Global Worldwide” or whatever isn’t really the story, the big story is the mechanism(s) that make it possible.

Anyway more on that, but this is a cool development and yet another thing to procrastinate about.

I’m getting sucked back into the “let’s make a custom notion replacement” game again. I keep coming back here in the same way that I keep coming back to Notion. I believe that it will stick one day, sometimes you just need to keep trying and follow your gut.

Anyway, I think I’ve come to terms with using KirbyCMS as my go-to journaling CMS. It is rock-solid, handles publishing well, Has a very customizable block-based writing experience. I can write my own blocks and flex it as needed. So that’s good. It also allows for performance impromvents like image optimization, etc. for my real long pages.

I really do think this could work!

I am researching ways to tailor it to my writing style, small UX improvements that make the difference between “writing it down” and “not writing it down”.

Current example with the structure that I use for my work notes.

This can even be used in “app” mode which improves the UX a bit or makes it feel less like a site.

One of those small UX improvements is copying and pasting images.

I use the “Markdown Field” plugin which I think is based on eith Prose or Code Mirror, maybe a little bit of both:
