Love the UI design.

To OP: I have a very lateral thinking process during writing and I have been experimenting with how to format that in my personal site https://hankdoes.ai/posts/we-have-the-model-why-do-we-need-y...

Lots of Jank still at this point in its life but the hover to popover extra context has been really helpful to keep the main post body more focused than it would otherwise be. I'm not that good at structuring my thoughts yet because I'm so new at writing (the post I linked isn't even finished).

Really interested to see others who are clearly much farther along in their writing journey experimenting with asides and popovers. Your underline animation is very cute. I am trying out a click-to-expand-acronym typing animation that I thought was kind of whimsical.

If you're interested in popups/popovers and sidenotes (https://gwern.net/sidenotes), be sure to check out my website. Did you notice OP also does inflation adjustments (https://gwern.net/static/build/Inflation.hs)? I do them inline, because I think that requiring effort like OP does just leads to the same pervasive lack of numerosity that providing no adjustments at all does, because no one is going to bother to hover over most of them.

OP here! I love your website and didn't realize you also had an inflation adjustment component - I like the idea of providing them inline but my general philosophy here (which seems different from yours in my mind) was to create a single flow very similar to a regular article one would see in any print media but with as many opportunities for proactive additional engagement as possible. I absolutely love your website and the style and voice it has, though it more leans towards the encyclopedic, mind map, interconnected side of things. That's a distinctly different vision than what I was going for here. Thanks for reading!

Your website is wild. I am going to explore it a lot more later because there are a few more concepts that have overlap with what I am working on (like a personal kind-of wiki that I use to organize information I come across). I wanted to have a thing that grows alongside me over time and it seems very much like your website is that, but in your clearly unique way.

Are your about personal and about website pages the best place to get introduced to (what feels like) your Gwerniverse?

I also agree that the adjusted value should be displayed and if you wanted to you could popover the original value.

I frequently visit your website to get design inspiration for my own. Thanks for being so detail-oriented and all your writing in general!

Edit: Actually, while I have you here: do you think that the modal popups for links (the ones that pop up when you hover on a link) should be a standard browser feature? I'd be curious to see if a web extension could replicate it more generally for all sites.
