There is so much to know (about). So, for the insatiably curious: how do you manage this?

Do you maintain a personal knowledge base in something like @obsidian?

Do you have endless piles of scrawled notes that you can't type up fast enough?

Is it a problem for you? Like, do you ever worry it's some kind of pathological distraction/defense mechanism against a baked-in sense of inferiority that can be displaced only by one more piece of #knowledge?
