     This formatting is going to be the _end_ of me. I don't have to write to it, that's all that really matters.

     *inhale* parse once and you're done

     parse once...

     alright now we're parsing calibredb's output and now I'm asking for someone out there to pick one format and stick to it

     nesting HTML in JSON that could have been a separate field makes me wanna _yell_

     so sha2 comes with md5? hm I guess this isn't too uncommon? https://github.com/koreader/koreader/blob/7ebd067a95886392b3894bed0d4a0c50de475b59/plugins/kosync.koplugin/main.lua#L12-L12

     I haven't seen this pattern before

     the two places of my pain right now:

     https://github.com/koreader/koreader/blob/7ebd067a95886392b3894bed0d4a0c50de475b59/spec/unit/kosync_spec.lua#L72-L73

     and https://github.com/koreader/koreader-sync-server//blob/14c64347627d07cf6e72552705bf1642a39a8908/app/controllers/1/syncs_controller.lua#L72-L83

     because I can't tell if I'm supposed to be hashing this thing twice _or_ if there's something else missing here

     (trying to auth with a koreader-sync server has been ... interesting)

     might well as gab about some bits: I'll put more in my running week notes https://www.jacky.wtf/weeknotes/ (one's due next Monday) but so far:

     * currently building koreader from source b/c it's easy
     * mocked a little wrapper over `calibredb`
     * overengineered the data format (but will shave parts off)

     ideally by monday, I can show something (but god, my library is big)

     @jalcine YUP, it started mid last year as part of a major blog replatforming, turned into “archive all the things,” I think our schemas are like, 80% overlap lol

     @sivy okay, in all seriousness, if you do that what’s your plan for editing? Just go straight markdown files, or..?

     @sivy it’s doubly tricky because I’m generating a bunch of graphish in my migration process, and I don’t want to get too deep in trying to roundtrip THAT from flat files, and yet…

     @eaton I don't know..... right now it's all in markdown files but is indexed in sqlite... edits are supposed to be pushed to disk and `git push` ed back to gitlab, which doesn’t always work, so... still don't know

     @sivy Yeaaaaah, I'm trying to build out a fair bit of cross-referencing in my site. Events I've spoken at are related to technologies or topics, which connect to projects and can be associated with other people, which… you know how it goes.

     @eaton is "graphish" a format or a conceptual description? :D

     OK, so, really, what it means is that I'm using ArangoDB (multimodal graph/document db) as my data store for pretty much everything that isn't a media asset, but at least for the present my actual output is.... markdown files. lol.

     @eaton ArangoDB seems interesting, but having a hard time getting through the marketing fluff to get a feel for it. Spent too much time lately in sqlite and duckdb :)

     @sivy Would love to pick your brain about DuckDB; I've had good luck with ArangoDB but as you say the marketing site feels almost content-free for how much it says. The docs section is really solid though.
