+## Questions and answers
+
+- Q: Do you think the line number for writing document kind of
+ distraction? Especially for notes.
+ - A:I don\'t find it distracting; I\'ve been coding for a long
+ time and those fringes are partially invisible.  But help me
+ orient.
+ - or, what it brings to you, if we don\'t have that.
+ - Given that I\'m writing code, prose, documentation, etc,
+ I prefer to have a common left fring...most of the time.
+ - Okay. I use (avy-goto-line &optional ARG) for jumping
+ - I bind C-j to jump to \`avy-goto-char-timer\`; My C-l is
+ bound to \`consult-goto-line\`
+- Q: How do you manage private and public data with your zettlekasten.
+ One of my blockers on putting my zettlekasten on the web is I don\'t
+ want everything in it to be public. expeccily fleeting notes
+ - A: I explicitly export a single page at a time; this ensures the
+ primary page is something I consider public.
+ - Q: Do you have anything to prevent private links from getting
+ accidentally being made publicaly accessible
+ - The main guard is the \"publish this page\" function.  Under
+ the hood, private notes are those that I don\'t specify a
+ public URL.  I do this by way of the \`\#+ROAM\_REFS:\`
+ keyword (technically there are a few other keywords I check
+ as well; for bespoke historical reasons) on the document. 
+ If it doesn\'t have that, then an internal link to that item
+ will not export a public link.
+- Q: Is there anything special you\'re using to go from Org to Hugo
+ Markdown?  This looks like a really nice setup, and I\'d like to
+ give it a try!
+ - A: <https://github.com/jeremyf/dotemacs> you\'ll be looking for
+ jf-blogging.el (also jf-org-mode.el)
+- Q: Another font question.   What font were you using in eww?
+ - A: For fixed fonts I\'m using \"Iosevka Comfy Motion Fixed\" and
+ for variable \"ETBembo\"
+- Q: What\'s the story behind the name \"Take On Rules\"?
+ - A: The blog started as a game rules oriented blog; it was my
+ time to interrogate rule systems.  But over time that drifted;
+ and once I moved to Org-Mode for writing I settled on an
+ everything and nothing blog.  My
+ <https://takeonrules.com/about/> has a bit more details on this
+ -  \"Anything and nothing.\" Makes sense. :-)
+
+## Notes
+
+- <https://takeonrules.com> (presenter\'s personal blog)
+- When you put your thoughts on the physical world, it actually helps
+ you to generate more. It\'s kind of releasing your mind and let your
+ mind freely be free so from that kind of states you can create
+ something new
