Notes
Every note on the site, grouped by topic. The date is when it was last
tended: the updated date if the note has one, otherwise the day it was
published. Seedlings are short linking notes. Finished essays default to
evergreen. Post URLs stay at /posts/<slug>/. The
dated feed
still lists every post by publish date.
