This post is being moved off the static site. The full text is currently on the feed as a long-form note. I'm in the slow process of breaking the longer posts back out into permalinks, and this one isn't done yet. Email me if you want the original — I have it.

Why is this here at all? Because old links shouldn't break, and I'd rather give you a placeholder with a way forward than a 404.
