What's a prd?

Holder of the skeleton key.

Upgraded to level 20

The Decider

Rebirther

Professional in dozens of languages, master of the cloud, arbiter of HTTPS requests - utterly clueless.

😇 Over the next week the last necessary connections regarding the map-wiki relationship will be established. Thereafter the interface & its interactivity become to the primary focus in that realm. Throughout the month of September a concerted purge of all unnecessary aspects of the wiki & its imported systems will take place. Extensions will whittle down to the necessary inclusions, Gadgets, Widgets, Templates & Modules all passing through a kind of case for usability & merits thereof. Finally, the wiki's frontend will be forced forward in terms of content parity to that of the Fandom wiki - synchronizing their available information and combining with the advancements made (ex... the interactive map system, modding portal(s) & tooling sections). In a brief summary to instill confidence - no hurdle exists which prevents for the full scale development of the wiki other than reaching effort-based milestones. The coveted features live in an assembled state. The task, if given an analogue, is assembling a vehicle having all the required parts ready for fastening & welding together. Any doubts at the viability of this dissipated some months ago.

All hail the march of progress
Whichever way you like
You're gonna carry that weight
Do it with a smile

-;Lessons I've learned
+=Cool Image Tools=
-:# Never expect others to help you. You are completely on your own from idea creation to execution and implementation.
+*https://www.imgonline.com.ua/eng/cut-photo-into-pieces.php
-:# This includes anything from both discovery of & grasping concepts, software/package intricacies, concurrency conflicts up and down the stack, race conditions, debugging scenarios, error tracking etc. It is entirely upon you to solve your problems - and sometimes other people's problems become your own to solve. Deal with it.
+*https://squoosh.app/editor
-:# There is no wisdom in the notion "don't reinvent the wheel" when spoken with respect to systems architecture which is akin to a pile of dirt. These are not wheels, they are at best the tread to the tire and little more. Reinvent to fix the undeniably bad. Don't stick with incompetency merely because it's popular.
-:# Problems are global, solutions are local.
-:#  No feature outweighs its performance needs. "Working" isn't good enough.
-;[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wirth%27s_law Things I already knew]

-This is a means to an end. Grain by grain the whole being formed will reveal itself and its nature. There is no rushing architecture. Systems rise and fall... nothing is meant to last. Adaptation is inherent to the structural feedback loop (which must exist). It's a tool for analysis. Kenshi is merely the current medium. A shame so much lives out of view.
-:I've been given the go-ahead to shift from first gear to second. Summer rains...you can never expect their arrival!
-:There are two sides to design. Most people only partake in one. ''Creative production'' is the standard fare modus operandi for how engineer and designer types are educated. The world '''needs''' creators to bring forth new ideas, washing away the old and ushering in the new.
-:What is often overlooked, usually by way of organizational structure and a resultant cultural mode, is ''creative destruction''.
-:For a given exercise we know there are two effective ways of approaching its execution...
-::#Positively
-::#Negatively
-:The deconstruction and inversion of functional methodologies offers a look at mutually exclusive outcomes for the net routine.
-:Reverse engineering is '''crucial''' to understanding. A building's life cycle doesn't end at grand opening -- there's maintainence and the eventual possibility of demolition. Each a profession unto themselves beyond architecture and construction.
-;Today, May 28th, 2025, I saw something I didn't believe was possible. While I occasionally fancy myself to be a trendspotter and (attempt) to keep expected outcomes reasonably in line... it's no longer possible when it comes to this. By 2027 to 2028 the world is going to look quite different than the moment of this writing. If my spidey sense is working properly then the deathknell of '''coding''' just occurred. Take it how you will, perhaps return to this at a future point to reflect. Learn Vim? Good sir, nobody owns a typewriter anymore and there are almost certainly no jobs for a typesetter, we have markup languages nowadays. Wake up and smell the ashes.
-And yes, I realize in a world of endless possibilities anything can and will happen. That's why the last thing I expect to occur is nothing. Normalcy bias is endemic across modern society as people become desensitized and even numb to the march of progress. Automation is coming for everyone. This - as painful as the process might be - is a net positive goal. How we get there and what that landscape will look like once finally arrived at are open questions. The easiest way I've found to see this is to recognize ''most of life's hard problems have already been solved''. When someone makes a case for being replaceable they're speaking to a reality shard amongst all humans. Now, the charismatic do-nothing class of the populace are going to be forced to grapple with their fundamental ineptitude. You can take it personally or you can take it to heart. We're all in trouble. Some...more so than others.

-;If that's the appropriate way to generate map files, fine.
-;Develop pipeline for delivering coordinates of a given town from FCS output to corresponding wiki target, loaded into a Cargo table, mirrored via parity check and served to the interactive map. Updating extensions this weekend and then doing so.
