It worked great when I switched from yabai some time ago but now it seems to be constantly losing windows and I have to keep resetting it :S

Read it a while ago, one lasting impact it had on me is I became a devotee of the bic tri-color pen :)

Now, onto the next frontier: handwriting recognition for shorthand. Let's start from Orthic :)

I agree that those are impressive skills that are becoming rare and make us compare unfavorably to old schoolers. But I am also impressed by trackers who can follow a trail in the …

Can’t you say the same about the printing press?

Socrates thought that writing contributed to brain rot. If I AI rots my brain than so did Google before it, and printed encyclopedias before that. In reality, the fact I can get my…

Cool idea! It reminds me of this maxim: In each sentence, a fact and a feeling. The idea is from this book: Writing Non-Fiction by Walter S. Campbell (1949) I found out about this …

Indeed. When you have superior skill, inferior tooling can be a constraint. But a superior tool will not compensate for inferior skill.

Iphone, yes. I keep the file on dropbox so that is what keeps it synced. Shortcut: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/a8a0076cc03f4e699d8ca34bd3d...

It’s an iphone shortcut. Here it is: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/a8a0076cc03f4e699d8ca34bd3d... I keep the inbox.org on dropbox, that keeps it synced. The shortcut is called “…

The most seamless capture-from-anywhere workflow I struck upon is to have a shortcut on my phone's home screen. When tapped, it takes my dictation, transcribes it, and saves it to …

True! I don't use capture templates. Tags make sense too.

The issue I'm having is that the daily file is sometimes a running log of notes I jotted down, other times a structured journal entry written the next morning. I wish I could separ…

My stack is org mode plus the Denote package which has a nifty journaling feature. Each day has its own file. The date is in the file name, but more useful to me, the file name als…

I often use timers and alarms either on my casio or on my laptop as reminders for this or that. I routinely get so carried away by whatever I'm doing that I don't notice when the s…

I also switch between my macbook keyboard and my external ortholinear keyboard. In my case, getting used to the ortholinear actually improved my typing on the macbook keyboard, as …

Living in the northern hemisphere, it bugs me that standard north-up, west-left maps don't match up with the sun and with our clocks. It's neat that both clock hands and the sun ar…

I spent my 20s searching for the perfect todo solution but my search ended when I discovered org-mode. It's not that I'm the most productive person you'll meet, it's just that ther…

Denote, the org-mode package, takes the cake for me. (From Protesilaos, whose introduction to emacs was also on the front page at the time of writing this comment)

It’s already decaying, tiles coming loose, glues coming undone, grime building up. And yeah, up close everything looks cheap, like it was built to be a temporary movie set. (Talkin…

What do you mean cover?

Nono, I specifically mentioned no willpower required. Like in your example of available actions, I also have zero desire to jump out of the window, so don’t have to expend any will…

Do you ever get periods of time where you're just not interested in your phone? Periods of time when you don't even feel the compulsion to unlock your phone and scroll, so there's …
