Faithful and opinionated English translation of Niklas Luhmann's original notes on Zettelkasten.

The weirdest thing was when I ran Dwarf Fortress Adventurer Mode in text-output in Emacs and fiddled with custom key-bindings. (I still think there's potential, esp. for macros :))…

Fixed! Thanks

Thanks for telling me! Glad I found a tone that rang well

Cool! The clock's font size is good. Display contrast could be enough to work. 2x2 tiles instead of 3x3 would be ace.

Please share if you figure out a way :)

The clustering idea came pretty late, sorry, it's not a scientific comparison :)

I think failing to some extent is fine, if the feedback is good and the device returns to a clean state. Even on a phone with buttons, she sometimes fat-fingers the wrong button su…

Right. She had a Windows Phone for years because you could zoom-in the tiles and thus increase touch targets for quick dialing. That eventually broke down, too, because of lack of …

Totally! I often wonder how much accidental functional ADHD we are training ourselves to suffer from when I see how elderly people including my granny react to modern tech devices …

OP here: She also can barely hear, so giving voice commands might work, but understanding the machine-generated audio feedback doesn't work. Also, she can't fix problems, like acci…

100% agree. Most large mobile phones are useless. Can't feel the keys, or have touch.

Yes, this! +1

Shoutout to you, Rui, for Tao of Mac :)

This is a false dichotomy: you can create a Zettelkasten in a single TXT file. The implementation (e.g. using multiple files, one per note) is just a convenient way to see your stu…

I like that project status approach to filing!

I do struggle with the information/knowledge distinction as I never researched that field in detail. Would love to hear about some helpful alternative! I can imagine a primary sour…

I don’t keep them in my head at all :) In fact, my memory is quite bad except for procedual stuff like programming techniques. That’s why I process and store notes so extensively.

I think patronage is hard to justify from a business standpoint. But it's consequential if aou value creating software to give it away for free and seek other means to make a livin…
