Migrate to Hugo.
This is a big and somewhat complicated decision, but the crux of it is this:
The _mkdocs_ tool embeds a ton of "I am writing a manual" assumptions about document structure.
These assumptions include that there is a single, sitewide TOC, that a top nav bar is broadly an appropriate way to skip around in the document, and numerous others. They serve that use case well, but that's not really what this site _is_, or how I intend it to be approached. I'm trying for something more blog-esque (and deliberately a bit haphazard).
Hugo is an experiment. This commit migrates most pages to it, but it does drop a few; this is a convenient excuse to forget items I'd prefer not to continue publishing.

In Nomic, the primary move available to the players is to change the rules of the game in a structured way. Nomic itself was intended as a minimalist study of procedural law, but it has been played very successfully by many groups over the years. - -I first played Nomic through [Agora](http://www.dfw.net/~ccarroll/agora/), a long-running Nomic of a heavily procedural bent (as opposed to variants like BlogNomic, that have developed in much more whimsical directions). I've found the game, and the communities that have sprung up around the game, deeply fascinating as a way to examine how groups reach consensus and exercise decisions. - -I briefly experimented with the notion of running a procedural Nomic - a mini-Agora - via Github, and produced two documents: - -* [Notes Towards Initial Rules for a Github Nomic](notes.md) -* [Github Nomic Rules](rules.md) |
