Fandom-dropping progress, August 15 report
I had a “nightmare” that I found a PSoH chapter revealing Leon’s Actual Full Name. The nightmare part was that dream-me had a ton of stress thinking about how many Leon-related canonical tags I would have to update/rename.
Come join the AO3 Tag Wranglers, you too can have fun bizarre anxiety dreams like this!
Monthly fandom tracking (I know it’s not the 15th as I’m posting this, but it was when I ran the numbers):
Down to 623 fandoms. I did take that break I mentioned last month, and haven’t started my next “actively, systematically dropping a bunch” sweep yet, but I still managed to hand off a few. Currently 27 with any tags to wrangle.
AMT updates: The revamped Fake News request, and the original one for Cutie Honey, are still both on the submissions page, waiting for approvals. Have I mentioned that I also requested a Narbonverse AMT? That’s the tiniest one I’ve put in for. TBD if the AMT-approving wranglers will decide it’s worth the effort.
Oh, and I requested a Grinch metatag a while back. That one’s been approved and processed! Subtags include the original book, three licensed adaptations of various faithfulness-levels, and one horror parody.
At this point, there’s only one un-submitted AMT left on my personal to-request list. It’s for a franchise that I’m not even personally into…but it involved one (1) webcomic, no surprise I grabbed that to tidy it up, and at some point I realized “oh hey, this is part of a Whole Thing that should probably go together.” The proposal is written up, but I’m sitting on it for now, until at least one of my in-progress requests gets cleared.

Tip of the day: Tags can be very effective for organizing your databases. But it is often tedious to assign them to each document by hand, isn’t it? That’s why #DEVONthink and #DEVONthinkToGo can dynamically add and remove tags to objects. Here are two options for dynamic tagging. #pkm #productivity #tagging #tipoftheday https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20241126-dynamic-tagging-devonthink

Liebe Screenreader-Kundige,
verstehe ich richtig, dass Leseprogramme in Systemfunktionen einhaken, um den Bildschirminhalt vorzulesen, und dass sie nicht die zugrundeliegenden Datenstrukturen analysieren?
Konkret: Werten irgendwelche Screenreader Tagged PDF aus, insbesondere PDF/UA?
(Mein Take: Wenn du Barrieren abbauen willst, veröffentliche semantisches HTML mit Inhalten in verständlicher Sprache.)
:boost_ok:

Tip of the day: Do you need to clear out empty tags that have piled up and are collecting dust? Here is an easy way to locate and remove them from any database in #DEVONthink. #pkm #productivity #tagging #tipoftheday https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20250325-clean-up-tags-devonthink

On the same release note #Shaanti now also uses #Taga11y instead of #Tagify
Taga11y or as i read it tágay (being gay) is a accessibility-first tagging input library with no dependencies, it is meant to be as close as possible to a native form control, but can be customizable to fit your #UI.

It should be no suprise, but OSMers mostly add the `air_conditioning` tag to things in the summer.
In Germany 🇩🇪 ca. 1.3k A/C tags were added during a month of July, compared to 0.5k during a December.

Suggest people start giving it their pov to get this sorted asap. My stance is as always, fuck ai. So the sentiment states it all.
Related, can people also voice here:

@kentpitman @yantar92 @ramin_hal9001 @chiply @karthink @someodd @screwlisp (I haven't read through the whole thread)
In general, you need to differ between different methods of #informationretrieval.#Search vs. #navigation vs. #tags/labels vs. others + combinations such as teleportation ...
Furthermore, you need to differ between personal retrieval, where you yourself had done some filing/#categorization/tagging process and a process where you need to retrieve something from a corpus that was not somehow curated by you yourself but by one or many peers instead (social #tagging, company file server, ...).
And yes, in any case, your personal mental model changes over time. Therefore, it's difficult to do successful retrieval even for your personal files especially when you did not follow certain principles during the filing process.
For example, that's why tagging is not as simple as most people think it is: https://karl-voit.at/2022/01/29/How-to-Use-Tags/

Tip of the day: Emojis are often used to convey emotions, thoughts, or actions. They are also sometimes used as visual indicators to provide more context to documents. But should you use them in #DEVONthink 🧐? #pkm #productivity #tagging #tipoftheday https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20231010-emojis-devonthink

@Pixels_Perspective
Very nice.
Local advice: apart from #photographers wondering if that's natural light or cleverly arranged (you don't have to indulge my curiosity even minimally, but I do appreciate it when people kindly do in advance); there is a general appreciation of Alt text around here.
No compulsion, nor for #tagging , and I block anyone who is tedious about it, but both seem good things. -
tl;dr Using https://thi.ng/column-store to accelerate tag intersection queries by a factor of 880x...
Working on the static website generator/export plugin for my personal knowledge tool has been one of the main projects this past month. A key part of this setup is tagging, not just simple flat keywords/categories, but actually treating tags as sets. The system doesn't just allow browsing content by a single tag, but also supports adding (or removing) tags to narrow or widen the current topic. E.g. The combination of "3d + geometry + typescript" would select only works which have all of these three tags...
In the local version of my tool there's no limit to the number of tags (and it also supports tag negation), but for the static site generation I have to limit the set size (due to combinatoric explosion) and pre-compute all possible permutations, then create HTML documents for each these individual combinations which actually produce results.
So far I'm having ~400 unique tags in use, meaning if I want to aim for a max set size of 3, there're theoretically ~64,000,000 possibilities to check[1]! For the roughly 3500 content items used for testing, a naive JS approach to filter the result array and only retain items matching the entire current permutation is so extremely slow, that I stopped the process after 3.5 minutes just for the first 250k (aka 0.4%) of the 64 million permutations, i.e. at that rate the full process would have taken ~15 hours, pretty slow for a SSG... :)
Naive approach 🫣:
```
permutation = ["3d", "geometry", "typescript"]
results.filter(item => permutation.every(tag => item.tags.includes(tag)))
```But since I'm using https://thi.ng/column-store as my database, such queries can be optimized by a few magnitudes, since here these intersection queries are applied only to bitfields (explained in the pkg readme). This results in all 64+ million permutations being processed in just 62 seconds (1+ million per second). Quite the difference, i.e. ~880x faster than the above approach!
Also, of these 64 million initial possibilities, there're fewer unique ones (excluding duplicates and ignoring ordering), and currently only ~24,000 are actually producing a result. Still, that's 24,000 index pages to generate & host and it's, of course, far, far too much!
So I will have to also spend more effort curating and severely reducing the tag vocabulary, at least the subset used for the website. On the other hand, I think this system will really help with browsing this large body/archive of work much more meaningfully than the boring single-tag/category approach most websites are offering. And it will do so without any backend (other than file hosting)...
[1] Permutations = 400 + 400^2 + 400^3
