>What happens when you iterate on this?

Sounds like page rank? Eigenvalue-valuation?

Connor, do you have any kind of "call to action", or, "advice for what to do if I like what you're writing"?

This series is fascinating and makes sense (though it's very abstract and somewhat vague), but idk how to integrate it into my behaviors and choices. What do you want from your readers, lol.

(Below are my ideas)

---

I added the concepts which I found most interesting to my own notes, in my own words.

Also a major improvement over simply reading is: a "text navigator + AI commentary" thingy, shown in this quick vid: https://youtu.be/u7HG95ZzUAw (not polished but shows the gist)

(

- in the top right corner: section titles in grey separated by " --- ", navigation with alt-left/right, current one highlighted in cyan, comment on the currently-selected one is in green, titles and commentary are AI generated

- purple text in the middle: copy-pasted from this page, fed to AI to create the top right panel, and a hotkey makes it `jump to and highlight` the currently-selected section

)

I like it a lot more than a raw page of text, because it's interactive and layered.

(This is a super general question but this is a good place to ask it.)

I have a strong feeling that the answer is mostly "just improve code and DX, then feature ideas will naturally pop into your mind and you'll figure out what works over time", with a little bit of "no but bro, actually think about wtf you want, and what you think will happen if you succeed". (And I do have some specific features in mind..)

Great question!

Luckily there is one part left in our Journey, that hopefully will address your questions :)
