Quotes definitely feel like the "missing glue" connecting blogs together. I was actually a bit surprised that this post bsky.app/profile/anil... didn't show up in the Leaflet. Have you considered a 'mentions' alongside the quotes and comments to just pick up references to a Leaflet post from bsky?
I'll add:: the future is having the agency of extensibility for code management. I want to be able to render executable notebooks that aren't Jupyter, to coordinate large datasets outside of git LFS, to track provenance of code+data. Federation is the means to this end. icy.leaflet.pub/3m47cll72hs25
wrote down some thoughts justifying @tangled.org's existence & planned trajectory.

With that many type theorists in one place it had a Raphael feel to it for sure

it's such a tantalizingly small step to then publish executable commands for the migrations so they can be clicked one by one by Komodo or similar :-)

Totally agree on the late introduction of mutation - we only introduce that in the penultimate lecture of Foundations of CS here too

personal website evolution is definitely the way; i've used perl, php, python, ocaml, haskell, cduce, xslt, sh/sed/awk and probably a few more for mine over the years!

sorry, the "PyRet" typo must be as triggering as "Ocaml" is for me, now fixed! (pic was one of the Marina Bay Sands towers, how they built it is fascinating www.architectmagazine.com/design/build...)
