@matigo Yup. Basing the UI around stacks of content has made putting new bits of metadata in surprisingly easy.
@matigo OTOH further thought on the renaming is that it sounds like we went from “cow piss” to “cow pickle”. Moving up the production chain. 🙈

@matigo Interesting name history:
The name Calpis was constructed as a portmanteau, by combining cal from calcium and pis from Sanskrit sarpiṣ (/s̪əɽpiʂ/), meaning butter[3]. Primarily in North America, the name Calpis is changed to Calpico with カルピス in katakana either below or on the reverse side of the packaging.
“Pour a Glass of Calcium Butter”
Also a sensible regional renaming. ;)

@streakmachine Yes, it’s clear from observed behavior that Internet == Facebook || Instagram. 😭
@axodys In the event I use some other apps in that genre that you might not have run across:
For plaintext on iPhone, I tend to use Working Copy, iVim, or Textor.
Drafts 4 still serves for random stuff where I don’t want to think about what to name the file. Editorial I soured on after it lost some work with its Dropbox sync.
And Apple Notes is actually surprisingly capable these days; if Drafts 4 dies, I’ll probably switch to it.
@matigo I have joked about clicker training. (The marble jar reward counter is basically the same thing and works great.)
@matigo Threats, hitting, or vandalism gets them a time out. One minute for the two year old, two minutes for the five year old.
For time out, everyone just leaves and closes themselves away from the timed-out kid and ignores them. After timer is up, when they’ve been calm for say 10 seconds, come out and move on with things. Not a time to talk it over. Remind why they were in time out, and on to the next thing.
They do not like time out. It is not a frequent need. More effective is praising good behavior whenever performed. Recommend The Kazdin Method for further reading.
@matigo Presently, the answer I like for theodicy is “because the gods are many and neither omnipotent nor omniscient”. I think Greer’s A World Full of Gods makes for interesting reading on this.
