My goal with writing is generally to move things out of my head in the shape that they existed in my head. If it's useful but too long, I trust other people to pick what they find valuable, riff on it, and so on.

And yes, the paradigm is essentially "everyone is a scraper".

Thanks! I saved a link to pdsls. I think there's room for improvement in making the UI user-friendly; maybe I'll try it someday.
