Information today has become siloed. It's a common belief that little, if any, expertise from one field of knowledge transfers over to other fields. But there is a forgotten tool that anyone can use to confidently approach new subjects and problems: the _Trivium_.

Needs-based communication (usually called non-violent communication or NVC™) is a way of understanding yourself and others with a unique insight: everyone has their own personal reactions to the world, but people have the same basic needs. We recognize those needs in other people, and that common connection can allow us to communicate clearly when there is conflict.

Logical arguments no longer work. This has been especially visible in the pandemic response in 2020. If you dug even a little below the surface of any mainstream narrative in the past two years, you likely found points of disagreement. But showing people scientific papers, charts, statistical analysis, or other types of evidence accomplishes nothing, or worse it invites accusations of being part of the Other Team, one of those backwards, wrong, stupid people.

Around the time of my previous post, I had just been received into the Orthodox church. Since then I have found it to be everything I was looking for, and a great deal more. There is such a wealth of wisdom, going back thousands of years. And it was all there, un-seen, un-read, as far as I was concerned not existing at all! It seems impossible to me that I was so unaware of these treasures by chance.

New design! The tools I used before have a lot of unmaintained or outdated dependencies and I wanted something a little simpler. The new site uses [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/), [11ty](https://www.11ty.dev/), and [Nunjucks](https://mozilla.github.io/nunjucks/). Content is still in [markdown](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/).

I recently started self-hosting [Forgejo](https://forgejo.org/), but I wanted something to replace GitHub pages, which has been very convenient for publishing little website projects. My server runs Debian, so I decided to use [webhook](https://github.com/adnanh/webhook) and [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/). I'm very happy how it turned out.
