author here. Sorry for that, I got pulled into explaining my hack and I forgot to make matters clear. The idea is to create custom tools to understand what you (in the sense of your past self and your ancestors) have created so far. We need to stop to reinvent the wheel: tons of people before us were smarter and we need to be able to understand and retrieve what they did. Since there is a lot of useful information around us, we just need to extract meaning from it in better ways (for example, I mention climate change in the blog, because this goes further than just code in my opinion). In this blog I show how I could visualize my interests (the notes I take). This showcases how I could make a tool on the fly (still a bit too expensive for my tastes, working on that). With such an infrastructure I can easily go into code bases and see patterns via visualizations. Potentially I could even apply refactorings from pictures (since I could run code in my editor clicking an HTML file). If you missed it, my previous work on code-compass (https://github.com/ag91/code-compass https://github.com/ag91/code-compass) is just the first draft of what I have in mind.
