## Hi! I'm Miguel 👋🏼
I am a problem solver, hobby developer, music enjoyer, and public infrastructure enthusiast. I live in Minnesota, also known as the _"Land of 10,000 Lakes"_ for having over 14,000 bodies of fresh water. I know… it's silly. 😅
I think a lot, work a lot, have existential crises, and know just enough about making websites to make me dangerous. I enjoy writing, reading, coding, listening to music, and love having a problem to solve.
If you are aching for more, check out what [[Tools|tools]] I use daily, or read my [[Public Journal|public journal]].
### As of January 2024, I am…
… learning about web dev with [[Zola|Zola]].
… making simple browser [extensions](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/17772574/).
… collecting bookmarks with [Raindrop](https://raindrop.io/SemanticData).
… compiling [configuration files](https://github.com/semanticdata/dotfiles) in [GitHub](https://github.com/).
… developing a [theme](https://github.com/semanticdata/obsidian-sample-theme) for [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/).
### Reach Out
Here are some places you can find me on the web. You'll probably be able to find me in other places too, provided you look hard enough.

An arpeggio is a type of [[Chords|broken chord]] in which the notes that compose a chord are individually sounded in a progressive rising or descending order. Arpeggios on keyboard instruments may be called rolled chords.
Arpeggios indicate a chord in which the notes are sounded individually. The word "arpeggio" comes from the Italian word "arpeggiare," which means to play on a harp.

## Introduction
Atomic notes are single, self-contained notes that capture a single idea or piece of information. They are meant to be read and understood without needing to refer to anything more.
They can be connected to another atomic note or idea in some way. By breaking down complex ideas into smaller, atomic notes, one can make their notes more organized and easier to review later.
## Example Atomic Note
Title: Atomic Note: Importance of Exercise
Tags: #exercise #health #wellness
Regular exercise confers numerous health benefits, including:
- Improved cardiovascular health
- Increased strength and flexibility
- Weight management
- Reduced risk of chronic diseases
It is recommended to engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise per week. Exercise should be a combination of aerobic activity, strength training, and flexibility exercises.
Exercise not only improves physical health but also enhances mental well-being. It helps relieve stress, improve mood, and boost cognitive function.

title: Aurora Borealis Sighting
description: Wednesday, July 12th, 2023, was supposed to feature high solar activity, allowing for an incredibly large area of the northern United States to witness the Auroras as long as the light pollution was low. Unfortunately, this forecast did not come to pass. The solar activity remained within normal levels, meaning only Alaska and a few other places were able to see them. Thus cancelling these plans. But I liked the idea of presenting things like this in an Archive format.

## Tips to Get a Better Look
Viewing the aurora depends on four important factors.
### 1. Geomagnetic Activity
If the geomagnetic field is active, then the aurora will be brighter and further from the poles. Geomagnetic activity is driven by solar activity and solar coronal holes and thus it waxes and wanes with time. The level of geomagnetic activity is indicated by the planetary K index or Kp. The Kp index ranges from 0 to 9.
- For Kp in the range 0 to 2, the aurora will be far north, quite dim in intensity, and not very active.
- For Kp in the range of 3 to 5, the aurora will move further from the poles, it will become brighter and there will be more auroral activity (motion and formations). If you are in the right place, these aurora can be quite pleasing to look at.
- For Kp in the range 6 to 7, the aurora will move even further from the poles and will become quite bright and active. At this geomagnetic activity level, it might be possible to see the aurora from the northern edge of the United States.
- For Kp in the range 8 to 9, the aurora will move even further towards the equator and it will become very bright and very active. These are the events that create the best aurora and the extended auroral oval will be observable by the most people. At these levels, aurora may be seen directly overhead from the northern states of the USA.
It should be noted that the relationship between Kp and auroral latitude are approximate and represent averages. There will be times when these relationships do not hold up exactly.
There is an approximate relationship between Kp and the equatorward extent of the auroral oval. This relationship holds true in geomagnetic latitude, not geographic. At Kp = 0, the equator ward edge of the auroral oval is approximately 66 degrees. And it moves equatorward about 2 degrees for each level of Kp. So for Kp = 1, the aurora would move down to 64 degrees, for Kp=2, it would move to 62 degrees, etc… until reaching Kp of 9 at 48 degrees magnetic latitude.
### 2. Location
Go towards the magnetic poles. The north magnetic pole is currently about 400 km (250 miles) from the geographic pole and is located in the islands of north east Canada. Find a place where you can see to the north ( or south if you are in the southern hemisphere). Given the right vantage point, say for example on top of a hill in the northern hemisphere with an unobstructed view toward the north, a person can see aurora even when it is 1000 km (600 miles) further north. It should be noted that if you are in the right place under the aurora, you can see very nice auroral displays even with low geomagnetic activity (Kp = 3 or 4).
### 3. It Must Be Dark
Go out at night. Get away from city lights. The full moon will also diminish the apparent brightness of the aurora (not the actual brightness). One caveat that people often neglect to think of is that the high latitudes where aurora occur are also latitudes where it doesn't get dark in the summer. So combining a summer vacation to the arctic with aurora watching usually doesn't work. The aurora may still be there but it is only visible when it is dark.
### 4. Timing
Best aurora is usually within an hour or two of midnight (between 10 PM and 2 AM local time). These hours of active aurora expand towards evening and morning as the level of geomagnetic activity increases. There may be aurora in the evening and morning but it is usually not as active and therefore, not as visually appealing.
The best Seasons for aurora watching are around the spring and fall equinoxes. Due to subtleties in the way the solar wind interacts with Earth's magnetosphere, there is a tendency towards larger geomagnetic storms, and thus better auroras, to occur near the equinoxes. However, the number of hours of darkness decreases (increases) rapidly near the spring (fall) equinox so this caveat must be considered for those traveling to see the aurora.
Below are maps showing the most southern extent of where aurora might be observable for different levels of the geomagnetic Kp index (and the NOAA G scale). It should be noted that the aurora can often be observed hundreds of kilometers (miles) equatorward of the actual aurora so these figures do not indicate where the aurora may be but rather the point from which it may be observed.

- Cascading Style Sheets
updated: 2024-01-30

## Introduction
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a language used to describe the visual appearance and formatting of HTML documents. It defines how elements are presented on web pages, including layout, color, typography, and more. It enhances the aesthetics and overall user experience of websites.
## CSS Frameworks
CSS frameworks are pre-prepared collections of CSS stylesheets that help developers create visually appealing and responsive websites. These frameworks provide a set of standardized and reusable CSS components, layout systems, and pre-designed templates, making it easier to build attractive and consistent web pages.
One popular CSS framework that deserves special mention is [[Bulma|Bulma]]. Why does it deserve especial attention? Because I like it. 😅
Known for its simplicity and flexibility, [[Bulma|Bulma]] has gained significant traction among web developers. Here's a closer look at why it has become a go-to choice for many.
## Common Breakpoints
Based on Bootstrap: 320px, 576px, 768px, 992px, 1200px, 1400px, 1600px.
You can pick any breakpoint you want, it largely depends on what content your dealing with. Sometimes I swap 576px for 600px, just be consistent.
## Mixins
All _mobile-first-designs_ media queries and 1 _desktop-first-design_ media query per given CSS class.
### Anything Above a Certain Screen Width (_mobile-first-design_)
```scss
@mixin screen-min($min) {
@media (min-width: $min) {
@content;
}
}
```
### Anything Below a Certain Screen Width (_desktop-first-design_)
```scss
@mixin screen-max($max) {
@media (max-width: $max - 1) {
@content;
}
}
```
### Anything In-between Two Values (_hybrid_)
```scss
@mixin screen-minmax($min, $max) {
@media (min-width: $min) and (max-width: $max - 1) {
@content;
}
}
```
```scss
------------------------------------------------------------------
// USING THE MIXINS
// Example - Writing a custom bootstrap-like container from scratch
------------------------------------------------------------------
.container {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100%;
@include screen-min(768px) {
max-width: 750px;
}
@include screen-min(992px) {
max-width: 970px;
}
@include screen-min(1200px) {
max-width: 1170px;
}
@include screen-min(1400px) {
max-width: 1370px;
}
@include screen-min(1600px) {
max-width: 1570px;
}
}

## Definition
A chord, in music, is any harmonic set of pitches/frequencies consisting of multiple notes (also called "pitches") that are heard as if sounding simultaneously. For many practical and theoretical purposes, arpeggios and other types of broken chords (in which the chord tones are not sounded simultaneously) may also be considered as _chords_ in the right musical context.

Chuckwallas are lizards found primarily in arid regions of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, with some also inhabiting coastal islands. There are five species of chuckwallas, all belonging to the genus _Sauromalus_. They are members of the iguanid family, _Iguanidae_, which includes iguanas, chuckwallas, and their prehistoric relatives.
Chuckwallas have a robust build with wide bodies and flattened midsections. Their bellies are prominent, and their tails are thick, tapering to a blunt tip. Loose folds of skin can be observed on the neck and sides of their bodies, which are covered in small, coarsely granular scales. Chuckwallas vary in length, ranging from 15 inches to 30 inches.

Be the watchful caretaker of your ever growing plants and flowers. Grow your knowledge by forming new branches and connecting the dots. Write short structured notes articulating specific ideas and share them. Avoid creating or nourishing orphan notes. Anything not connected eventually needs to go. We must: refine our ideas, thread our thoughts, and keep notes [[Atomic Notes|atomic]].
Taking raw notes is _useless_. Seed your garden with quality content and cultivate your curiosity. Plant seeds in your mind garden by taking smart personal notes. These don't need to be written in a publishable form.

## What is a Digital Garden
A digital garden is a combination of an **online notebook** and a **personal wiki**, where digital gardeners write in small, unfinished pieces, also known as [[Atomic Notes|atomic notes]], and share these seeds of thought to be cultivated in public. Digital gardens are curated and evolve over time, sometimes growing wildly and sometimes getting pruned.
The phrase _"digital garden"_ comes up often while browsing these notes. Surely I overuse it. That said, I still like it. It more closely describes what I envision this website to be: a carefully curated garden of digital notes. Having a reliable system on which to dump raw information is extremely useful. The idea of [[Sweep Your Mind|sweeping]] one's mind is helpful to rid yourself of distractions from incorrectly prioritized tasks.
## How is Content Curated
Digital Gardens are explorable rather than structured as a strictly linear stream of posts. They grow slowly over time, rather than created as _"finished"_ work that is to never be touched again. A place where little changes accumulate and transform thoughts and ideas. As you [[Continuous Care|continuously care]] for your garden, you **revise**, **update**, and **change** your ideas as they develop.
## Kinds of Notes
- 🌱 *Seedlings* for very rough and early ideas.
- 🌿 *Budding* for work I've cleaned up and clarified.
- 🌳 *Evergreen* for work that is reasonably complete (though I still tend these over time).

## Introduction
Compilation of "Free" Facts. They are not fun, but they are free.
## Disney Aladdin
There is a [Willhelm scream](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_scream) in the movie Aladdin.
## Dumping Chemical Weapons Directly into the Ocean
After World War II, it is claimed that scientist did not know how to destroy the massive arsenals of chemical weapons. Russia, the UK, and the US opted for what seemed the safest and cheapest method of disposal at the time: dumping chemical weapons directly into the ocean.
Experts estimate that 1 million metric tons of chemical weapons lie on the ocean floor—from Italy's Bari harbor, where 230 sulfur mustard exposure cases have been reported since 1946, to the US East Coast, where sulfur mustard bombs have shown up three time in the past 12 years in Delaware, likely brought in with loads of shellfish.

## Lighting
Lightning is a significant force contributing to mountain erosion.

## MV Derbyshire
The MV Derbyshire was a British ore-bulk-oil combination carrier built in 1976. It was lost on September 9, 1980 during Typhoon Orchid, south of Japan. At 91,655 gross register tons, she is the largest British ship ever to have been lost at sea.
[Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MV_Derbyshire)
## Rogue Waves
Rogue waves are unusually large, unpredictable, and suddenly appearing surface waves that can be extremely dangerous to ships, even to large ones.
In oceanography, rogue waves are more precisely defined as waves whose height is more than twice the significant wave height (Hs or SWH), which is itself defined as the mean of the largest third of waves in a wave record. Therefore, rogue waves are not necessarily the biggest waves found on the water; they are, rather, unusually large waves for a given sea state.
[Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_wave)
## Sea Sickness
Ginger is proven to help those who suffer from sea sickness.
## Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
TMS is a noninvasive form of brain stimulation in which a changing magnetic field is used to induce an electric current at a specific area of the brain through electromagnetic induction. An electric pulse generator, or stimulator, is connected to a magnetic coil connected to the scalp.
## Weasel Words
A weasel word, or anonymous authority, is slang for words and phrases aimed at creating an impression that something specific and meaningful has been said, when in fact only a vague or ambiguous claim has been communicated. Examples include the phrases "some people say", "it is thought", and "researchers believe".
Using weasel words may allow one to later deny any specific meaning if the statement is challenged, because the statement was never specific in the first place. Weasel words can be a form of _tergiversation_, and may be used in advertising, (popular) science, opinion pieces and political statements to mislead or disguise a biased view or unsubstantiated claim.

## Tabs for the Guitar
When you are looking at a tab, you will see six horizontal lines. These lines represent the strings of the guitar. The bottom line is the 6th string (the thickest string on your guitar, low e) and the top line is the thinnest string (the first string, high e).

### Pasted
The next note is marked as a 7 on the 5th string, so place a finger on the 5th string 7th fret. The third note is the 5th fret 4th string. By now you are probably realizing that in order to play this riff, you need to use your 3rd finger on the 7th fret and your first finger on the 5th fret.
You can then finish out the riff by grabbing the 6th fret on the 6th string with your second finger, then the 5th fret with your 1st finger, and finally the 7th fret 5th string (a string) with your 3rd finger.

## Introduction
Markdown is a lightweight [[Markup Language|Markup Language]] that you can use to add formatting elements to plaintext text documents. Created by [John Gruber](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) in 2004, Markdown is now one of the world's most popular markup languages.
> [!Note]
> This website's content is exclusively written in Markdown.
## Markdown Flavors
There are several popular flavors of Markdown that add extra features and extensions to the original syntax. Two of the most popular ones include:
### CommonMark
CommonMark is a standardized version of Markdown that aims to create a consistent and universally understood Markdown specification. It provides a clear syntax specification, including features like headings, lists, links, emphasis, code blocks, and more.
### GitHub Flavored Markdown
GitHub Flavored Markdown, also known as GFM, is a Markdown flavor used by GitHub. It extends the basic Markdown syntax by adding some additional features. These include task lists, tables, user mentions, and code syntax highlighting. GFM is commonly used in GitHub repositories for documentation and README files.

A markup language is a system for annotating text to define the structure, formatting, and presentation of documents on the internet. It uses tags or codes to indicate the purpose or function of different elements within the document, such as headings, paragraphs, links, and images. Markup languages, like HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), provide a standardized way to structure and display content across various platforms and web browsers.
Examples of markup languages include:
1. HTML (Hypertext Markup Language): The most widely used markup language for creating web pages and applications. It specifies the structure and presentation of content on the internet.
2. XML (eXtensible Markup Language): A flexible markup language that allows users to define their own tags and structure data. It is commonly used for storing and transporting data between different systems.
3. Markdown: Although not a traditional markup language, Markdown is a lightweight markup language that is widely used for formatting and styling plain text, particularly for creating content for the web.
4. LaTeX: A markup language commonly used in academia and scientific publishing for typesetting documents. It provides extensive control over the layout and formatting of mathematical equations and complex technical documents.

> **Forgetful Notes** is created using [Quartz](https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz), hosted on [GitHub](https://github.com/), deployed with [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/), and facilitated by the GitHub [Publisher](https://github.com/ObsidianPublisher) plugin for [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/). If interested, you can browse the [source](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-notes) code.
## Background
Forgetful Notes has gone through many changes. I have not been shy about moving from technology to technology as I learn new things. Coming across the world of [[Static Site Generators|Static Site Generators]] was a game changer. I have ran my notes through [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/), [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/), [MkDocs](https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/), and most recently [Zola](https://www.getzola.org/).
However, this site is not specifically built with any of the aforementioned. Instead I have opted to follow in the footsteps of [Jacky Zhao](https://github.com/jackyzha0) and created my [[Digital Garden|Digital Garden]] using the new fully rewritten [Quartz](https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz)—a set of tools that helps you publish your digital garden and notes as a website for free.
## Technology
All content for the site is written in [[Markdown|Markdown]] within [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/)—an extensible, flexible note-taking app. To export the notes from Obsidian, I rely on the [GitHub Publisher](https://github.com/ObsidianPublisher) plugin.
The [source code](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-notes) is hosted in [GitHub](https://github.com/). From here we use [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions) to build and deploy the site to [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/).
## Features
- Fast Natural-Language Search
- Bidirectional Backlinks
- Floating Link Previews
- Admonition-style Callouts
- Markdown Links and Wikilinks Support

Poetry is a broad literary category that covers everything from bawdy limericks to unforgettable song lyrics to the sentimental couplets inside greeting cards. A **poem** is a singular piece of poetry.
- Show, don't tell. The goal is to provoke an emotion in the reader.
- Less can be more. While it's perfectly acceptable to write long, flowery verse, using simple, concise language is also powerful. Word choice and poem length are up to you.
- It's OK to break grammatical rules when doing so helps you express yourself.
The key elements that distinguish poetry from other kinds of literature include sound, rhythm, rhyme, and format. One thing poetry has in common with other kinds of literature is its use of literary devices. Poems, like other kinds of creative writing, often make use of allegories and other kinds of figurative language to communicate themes.
## Chasing the Sounds
Sometimes poetry is most impactful when it's listened to rather than read. Take the next example:
> [!quote] The Cold Wind Blows by Kelly Roper
>
> Who knows why the cold wind blows
> Or where it goes, or what it knows.
> It only flows in passionate throes
> Until it finally slows and settles in repose.
Poets create _sound_ in a variety of ways, like alliteration, assonance, and consonance.
## Units of Poetry
Syllables are grouped together to form **feet**, units that make up a line of poetry. A _foot_ is generally two or three syllables, and each combination of two or three stressed and unstressed syllables has a unique name.
One of the many kinds of rhythm is _Iambic Pentameter_ which was used frequently by Shakespeare. An **iamb** is a two-syllable foot where the second syllable is stressed: duh-DUH. A **pentameter** means that each line in the poem has five feet or ten total syllables.
## Not Everything is Stressed
Stressed and unstressed syllables aren't the only way you can create rhythm in your poetry. Another technique poets frequently embrace is repetition. Repetition underscores the words being repeated, which could be a phrase or a single word.
> [!quote] Still I Rise by Maya Angelou
>
> Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
> I rise
> Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear
> I rise
> Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
> I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
> I rise
> I rise
> I rise.
## Time to Rhyme
With poetry, rhythm and rhyme go hand in hand. Both create musicality in the poem, making it pleasurable to recite and listen to. Rhymes can appear anywhere in a poem, not just at the ends of alternating lines.
> [!quote] Jabberwocky by Lewis Carrol
>
> One, two! One, two! And through and through
> The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
> He left it dead, and with its head
> He went galumphing back.
## Formatting
Poems are not formatted the same way as **prose**. Sentences end in weird places, there are blank lines between the different sections, one word might have a line all to itself, or the words might be arranged in a shape that makes a picture on the page.
A **stanza** is the poetic equivalent of a paragraph. It's a group of lines that (usually) adheres to a specific rhyme or rhythm pattern.
## Literary Devices
- Figurative language
- Juxtaposition
- Onomatopoeia
- Simile
- Metaphor
- Puns
- Chiasmus
- Imagery
- Hyperbole
- Mood
- Motif
- Personification

> It is really not so repulsive to see the poor asking for money as to see the rich asking for more money. And advertisement is the rich asking for more money. A man would be annoyed if he found himself in a mob of millionaires, all holding out their silk hats for a penny; or all shouting with one voice, "Give me money." Yet advertisement does really assault the eye very much as such a shout would assault the ear. "Budge's Boots are the Best" simply means "Give me money"; "Use Seraphic Soap" simply means "Give me money." It is a complete mistake to suppose that common people make our towns commonplace, with unsightly things like advertisements. Most of those whose wares are thus placarded everywhere are very wealthy gentlemen with coronets and country seats, men who are probably very particular about the artistic adornment of their own homes. They disfigure their towns in order to decorate their houses.

## Introduction
Rhizomatic learning is a variety of pedagogical practices informed by the work of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. It takes it's name from the rhizome.
> [!Rhizome]
> Underground stem in which various plants asexually reproduce via budding.
## Background
Explored initially as an application of post-structural thought to education, it has more recently been identified as methodology for net-enabled education. In contrast to goal-directed and hierarchical theories of learning, it posits that learning is most effective when it allows participants to react to evolving circumstances, preserving lines of flight that allow a fluid and continually evolving redefinition of the task at hand. In such a structure, "the community is the curriculum", subverting traditional notions of instructional design where objectives pre-exist student involvement.
> [!quote] From _Deleuze, Education, and Becoming._
>
> "The underground sprout of a rhizome does not have a traditional root. There is a stem there, the oldest part of which dies off while simultaneously rejuvenating itself at the tip. The rhizome's renewal of itself proceeds autopoietically: the new relations generated via rhizomatic connections are not copies, but each and every time a new map, a cartography. A rhizome does not consist of units, but of dimensions and directions." — Inna Semetsky

## Introduction
In geometry, the rhombic dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron with 12 congruent rhombic faces. It has 24 edges, and 14 vertices of 2 types. It is a Catalan solid, and the dual polyhedron of the cuboctahedron.
## Rhombic Dodecahedral Honeycomb
The rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb (also _dodecahedrille_) is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space. It is the Voronoi diagram of the face-centered cubic sphere-packing, which has the densest possible packing of equal spheres in ordinary space (see Kepler conjecture).
## In Dungeons and Dragons
> "I've never seen a rhombic dodecahedron d12 before. They do exist after a quick search, but the much more common d12 is just a dodecahedron, with pentagonal faces."
The UCLA[^1] investigators developed a technique that prevents that corrosion and showed that, in its absence, lithium atoms assemble into a surprising shape—the rhombic dodecahedron, a 12-sided figure similar to the dice used in role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons.

> This page was originally published on July 28, 2023. Its main goal was to aid in selecting SSD, and NVMe drives during a Micro Center sale.
## Storage Technologies
### 3D NAND
- The most basic of modern SSD technologies. Great for throwing on cheap systems, home servers, anything non-critical really.
- It is not recommended to host your Operating System on 3D NAND, or QLC.
### Quad Level Cell (QLC)
- QLC (Quad Level Cell) is cheaper to manufacture than TLC (Triple Level Cell).
- QLC is much slower and less durable to constant writing than TLC.
- It is not recommended to host your Operating System on 3D NAND, or QLC.
### Triple Level Cell (TLC)
- TLC is more reliable when compared to QLC.
- MLC is a Triple Level Cell based Samsung technology.
### Multi Level Cell (MLC)
- MLC is a Triple Level Cell based Samsung technology.
Let's break it down:
1. MLC V-NAND (Best)
2. V-NAND (TLC Equiv.)
3. TLC (V-NAND Equiv.)
4. QLC (Cheap, less reliable)
5. 3D NAND (Basic)
## How Are SSDs Scored
### Storage
- 1 point per GB
- Less accurate the bigger the SSD
- 3 TB and higher drives scale exp/log instead of linearly.
### Price
Based on price per $1.
Selected $0.10 as the baseline after averaging some calculations.
- 1 point for every $0.01 / GB below $0.10
### Technology Coefficient
- 3D NAND Coefficient = 0.5 (Big Penalty)
- QLC Coefficient = 0.75 (Small Penalty)
- TLC Coefficient = 1.0 (No Change)
- MLC V-NAND coefficient = 1.25 (Small Advantage)

## Definition
In typography and lettering, a "sans-serif", "sans serif", "gothic", or simply "sans" letterform is one that does not have extending features called "serifs" at the end of strokes. Sans-serif typefaces tend to have less stroke width variation than serif typefaces. They are often used to convey simplicity and modernity or minimalism.

A scope of work or SOW, is a descriptive document or working agreement that contains all information regarding the size of a project, the goals a team should accomplish by the end of the project and steps required to complete the project.
You might create an SOW when multiple parties are working together on the project and there are certain requirements to meet. This document usually includes of an introduction, objective overview, an outline of the expected work and tasks, schedule for deliverables, adoption plan and conclusion or sign off.
Usually, a scope of work has these standard components:
- Project goals: This includes all goals intended for the team to reach as the project progresses, as well as when it completes.
- Timeline: This includes the exact timeframe for the project's beginning and end, including when specific tasks should start and complete.
- Expected results: This includes specific outcomes intended to take place by the completion of the project.
- Deliverables: This includes the exact product or products the project should deliver by its completion.
- Conditions: This includes any stipulations the team should abide by or work under or requirements to meet.
- Financial information: This includes accounting data, such as how much the project may cost to complete, how much each team member is going to earn and how and when they're going to be paid.
- Management: This includes information regarding administrative details, such as who's responsible for approving financial decisions or who can agree to specific terms.

To _scry_ is to see or predict the future by means of a crystal ball. It is also the ability to look at the top cards of your deck and rearrange them in Magic the Gathering. This note was inspired by [Cortex](https://www.relay.fm/cortex) [Episode 142](https://www.relay.fm/cortex/142) where Myke and Grey discuss scrying your task lists.
In terms of organization, scrying your task list allows you to determine what is the order of 2 to 5 things that _need_ to happen.
Your job is not to get through all the to-do items, but to arrange them in the _correct order_. Sometimes you need to put some things at the bottom of the list. I draw the line when I can't finish the work day until these tasks are _done_.
Don't confuse mission-critical items and time saving tasks. Mission-critical Items **NEED** to be done today. Optionally, anything that will save time the next day **SHOULD** be done the day prior.
You are _probably_ doing life wrong if you consistently get to the bottom of your to-do list. Let me elaborate, if your to-do list is empty, something about your life _is_ wrong. You are not being ambitious enough.
This note was inspired by [Cortex](https://www.relay.fm/cortex) [Episode 142](https://www.relay.fm/cortex/142) on scrying your task lists.

Static site generators (SSGs) are engines that use text input files (such as [[Markdown|Markdown]], [reStructuredText](https://docutils.sourceforge.io/rst.html), and [AsciiDoc](https://asciidoc.org/)) to generate static web pages. SSGs are typically for rarely-changing, informative content, such as product pages, news websites, (software) documentation, manuals, and blogs.
Popular choices in SSGs include:
- [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/)
- [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/)
- [[Zola|Zola]]

## Introduction
[Svelte](https://svelte.dev/) is a modern [[JavaScript#JavaScript Frameworks|JavaScript Framework]] for building web applications. It compiles components into efficient, framework-free [[JavaScript|JavaScript]] code, resulting in fast and lightweight applications. With its reactive approach and declarative syntax, Svelte simplifies development and delivers impressive performance.
## Example
```javascript
<script>
let name = 'Svelte';
function handleClick() {
alert(`Hello, ${name}!`);
}
</script>
<main>
<h1>Welcome to Svelte</h1>
<p>Click the button to greet:</p>
<button on:click={handleClick}>Greet</button>
</main>
<style>
main {
text-align: center;
margin-top: 50px;
}
button {
padding: 10px 20px;
background-color: #007bff;
color: #ffffff;
border: none;
border-radius: 4px;
cursor: pointer;
}
</style>
```
In this example, we have a Svelte component that displays a heading, paragraph, and a button. When the button is clicked, the `handleClick` function is called, which displays an alert with the name variable interpolated. The component also includes some basic styling using CSS in the `<style>` block.

These notes make it possible to offload a massive amount of information while demonstrating "perfect recall" when needed. The goal of a mind sweep is to identify everything that requires your attention or has the possibility of seeping into and affecting other parts of your life. These include things that are stealing your focus, not letting you get your work done properly, etc.
When you identify these things, you will realize that there are things in your head that you haven't been doing anything about. More often than not, this is related to some level of incompletion or procrastination. As long as things keep accumulating, there's no way they will get done. You can start to progress through these actions with a mind sweep.

Earth's only natural satellite. Orbits around the Earth at an average distance of 384,400 km (238,900 mi).
The usual English proper name for Earth's natural satellite is simply _Moon_. Occasionally, the name **Luna** is used in scientific writing and science fiction to distinguish our moon from others. **Cynthia** is another poetic name, though rare, for the Moon personified as a goddess, while **Selene** (literally "Moon") is the Greek goddess of the Moon.

## Introduction
[Zola](https:) is a fast [[Static Site Generators|static site generator]] (SSG) contained in a single binary with everything built-in, it has no other dependencies. It is _by far_ my preferred way to build static websites.
SSGs use dynamic templates to transform content into static HTML pages. Static sites are thus very fast and require no databases, making them easy to host. Content is written in [[Markdown|Markdown]].
## Useful Commands
```bash
zola build --base-url $DEPLOY_URL
```
```bash
zola build --output-dir $DOCUMENT_ROOT
```
```bash
zola --config config.staging.toml build
```
```bash
zola --root /path/to/project build
```
```bash
zola init
```
```bash
zola serve
```
```bash
zola check
```
