I wanted to read a little bit from each of the the best gopherholes on
tilde.institute, and add my thoughts here. See gopherholes.txt in this
directory for the script that generated the table, and the rest of the
entries.

He has a script that generates a new post each day
in the style of The Gazette. He also has a fascinating(ly
confusing) website:
https://thewhodidthis.com/about/
I like the /borderline generative artwork.
2 ~meta4 15010 87439 864576
See the About link: apparently he invented the word "phlog". I
like the "Undergoing deconstruction" header. The phlog content
is about the collapse of civilization and sustainability, which
is too heavy for my light gopher habits. The "hits" counter
hoists it up in the tilde.institute index.

Common-lispy stuff for the most part which I like, with a light
sprinkling of New Zealand politics (?). They have earned their
word count. Somehow, the numbers at the start of each filename
are decreasing as we travel through our mortal coil. What
happens when we get to zero?
