I was looking for a good small web source to link to April showers bring May flowers for yesterday’s New Leaf Journal article on a brave tulip in Red Hook. I turned to Marginalia Search and Mojeek for the task. On Marginalia, I found a link to a link to a May 10, 1998 blog post by Michael Rawdon titled May Flowers. It did include the adage. I did not ultimately use it in my article. However, a passage unrelated to spring and flowers caught my attention:

Oh, and I ordered my new G3 Macintosh from The Apple Store. They say it could be up to 3 weeks before it arrives due to “time for assembly”, but seeing as it’s a standard model minus the internal modem, I’m betting it will arrive sooner.
Michael Rawdon (May 10, 1998)

While I never had a Mac of any kind (lest we count my temporary custody of Victor V. Gurbo’s 2007 MacBook), the passage caught my attention because I wrote about one Macintosh G3 just over a year ago. In Power Macintosh G3 in Nana Anime, I used a reverse image search to identify a desktop computer in a 2006 anime I was watching at the time. Of course, the G3 I wrote about was first released on January 5, 1999, so Mr. Rawdon must have ordered the model before the one I covered.

@abucci time for web sites to bring back browser wars era badges, but instead of saying "Best viewed with Netscape Navigator" it might say "Best found with Duck Duck Go".... Oh wait, they have an AI "assist" right at the top of their page too. Hmm

"Best found with ${NON_AI_SEARCH_ENGINE}" where NON_AI_SEARCH_ENGINE is one of Start page, Searx, Qwant, Marginalia, Mwmbl...

Marginalia Search is a digital tool that is actually, deeply useful and necessary. It’s also super cool to explore.

Well, looks like a brand-new interface just dropped for #Marginalia—or, should I say, #MarginaliaSearch? 🤩️

#SearchEngines

I am pleased to discover that the very first result when you search Cassette Beasts on Marginalia Search is my Cassette Beasts shrine. Unfortunately, the result links to my website's original host on Neocities with its Neocities subdomain, instead of the custom domain leilukin.com.

My website, including the Cassette Beasts shrine, was originally hosted on Neocities, but it has migrated from Neocities since I registered a custom domain, leilukin.com, for it. I have set it up that visiting leilukin.neocities.org will redirect you to leilukin.com.

This prompted me to submit leilukin.com to be crawled by Marginalia Search.

@marginalia built an independent search engine from scratch.

New blog post, about last week's misadventures in the #marginaliasearch code base.

https://www.marginalia.nu/log/a_102_yak_shave/

The bards of yore weren't lying about the whole 'the years start coming and they don't stop coming'-thing.

It's somehow the three year anniversary for #marginaliasearch.

https://www.marginalia.nu/log/a_101_marginalia-3-years/

#MarginaliaSearch went down for an hour during an upgrade. Migrated to the new bleeding edge branch of the code. Expected a speed-up, but did not expect cutting the web response time in half xD

Guess all that refactoring wasn't for nothing...

Before: query response times hovering between 150ms-200ms.

After: Query response times in the 60-80ms range.

Good news, everyone! New #marginaliasearch bugfix release.

https://github.com/MarginaliaSearch/MarginaliaSearch/releases/tag/v24.01.2

Pushed a change to #MarginaliaSearch that does basic results clustering. Still missing a bit of polish, and only currently enabled for the 'wiki', 'forum' and 'docs' filters, but I think it might be a good change.

#MarginaliaSearch v2024.01.0 is released. Bunch of new features, including the ability to run it as a self-hostable barebones #searchengine backend.

Here's a demo:

I laughed a bit about the academicians being old hands at it and anticipating the preliminary readings the students would do of Emily Dickinson works and just batting it away in their teaching guide, with aplomb

#MarginaliaSearch with academic filter

Students need to know something about Dickinson's life, her schooling, religious upbringing and subsequent rebellion, her family members, and the close friends who became the audience for her poems. (Much of this is outlined in the headnote.) They will be helped by having some historical sense of women and men in nineteenth-century New England. They need information on women's habits of reading and writing, on friendships among women, religious revivalism, and life in a small college town like Amherst. Awareness of class, class consciousness, and social customs for families like the Dickinsons and their circle of friends will help prevent questions like the one cited above on why Dickinson didn't just move and "go for it" in a city. Students should be discouraged from discussing the poems as "feminine" or as demonstrating "the woman's point of view."

A discussion of homophobia is necessary. Here the headnote should be helpful. The love poems are not exclusively heterosexual. Students should be encouraged to examine the erotics of this poetry without being limited to conventional notions of gender. Dickinson uses a variety of voices in these poems, writing as a child (often a boy), a wife-to-be, a woman rejected, and as a voice of authority which we often associate with maleness. These voices or roles or "poses," as they are sometimes called, need to be identified and examined. Here are the multiplicities of self. Do we need to reconcile these voices?

uestions for Reading and Discussion/ Approaches to Writing

Cumbersome term papers "arguing" a single thesis on Dickinson are usually quite out of tune with her own multifaceted sensibility and intelligence. Reading a poem as a statement of a creed, i.e., as a "proof" that Dickinson believed this or that, is usually fatal to common sense. We suggest that the following 15 writing assignments on Dickinson will suit a variety of students with a variety of learning styles.

1. All her life, Emily Dickinson seems to have felt she was encumbered by structures that did not fit her, whether structures of religion, belief, value, language, thought, manners, or institutions. If you share her feeling, give some examples of her sense of the problem and then some examples of your own sense of it, in your life.

2. 1862, a year in which Dickinson wrote more than 300 poems, seems to have been a year of great emotional intensity for her. Drawing on poems from 1862 given in this anthology, trace some recurrent themes or designs in the poems of that year.

3. Kathleen Raine has written: "For the poet when he begins to write there is no poem, in the sense of a construction of words; and the concentration of the mind is upon something else, that precedes words, and by which the words, as they are written, must constantly be checked and rectified."

"Until I started researching this project, I thought that all of those old railroad-car-style diners I've seen over the years were built out of actual railroad cars. It turns out that relatively few ever saw life on the rails. But the railroad dining cars, with their bench seating and single long aisle, turned out to be a good "prototype" for any restaurant owner whose business plan depended on getting people in, served, and out quickly."
