The world is cranking through AoC and zooming toward a ChatGPT future, and I'm still here thinking about the right way to visualize past versions in a live-programming environment.

And my note-taking app. One thing I did recently: a move command that moves columns (analogous to browser tabs) to the left, while continually truncating columns on the right beyond some limit. The combination of these two has changed how I work, from messes all over the surface to much more localized access patterns where I live near the top left and move things over to it as I need them. (It's not a catastrophe if I lose a tab because on-disk search is working well.)

This post is part of my Freewheeling Apps Devlog.

Comments gratefully appreciated. Please send them to me by any method of your choice and I'll include them here.
