@holgerschurig Apology. Thanks for the correction. I edited my toot. I should have put more effort on checking my spelling.
@acowley Agree. I've been spoiled by Emacs and org-mode. Everything else feels inferior now.
@alxlg Thanks for the recommendation. And it's written in Clojure—my favourite programming language. Going to check this out soon!

I'm happy with my current knowledge and noting system, based on the Zettelkasten method [1]. I use org-roam [2] and my trusty #emacs when sitting at a desk, and #obsidian when I'm outside with my phone. I don't pay for Obsidian Sync BTW. I literally sync my notes directly to my remote repository via `git` in #termux.

Wish I could find a way to edit my Org files with my phone easily. Until then, I still have to stick to Obsidian and writing Markdown files.

Getting Started • Zettelkasten Method

A Zettelkasten is a personal tool for thinking and writing that creates an interconnected web of thought. Its emphasis is on connection and not mere collection of ideas.

I'm too tired of choosing the next "DevSecOps" stack [1]. I've suffered enough of the "Shiny Object Syndrome" [2]. I'm closing my door, becoming a hermit, and starting to read some books instead.

Now I truly understand that being simple is not easy, but a hard choice to make.

We have used too many levels of abstractions and now the future looks bleak

@nixCraft As if YouTube Shorts is not enough, and now this!?
@nixCraft Pascal—simple and elegant.

Joining OSS discussions made me mind my etiquette and educate myself to ask better questions [1]. This, conveniently, benefits my (writing) communication at work.

My favourite quote:

"You will earn an answer, if you earn it, by asking a substantial, interesting, and thought-provoking question — one that implicitly contributes to the experience of the community rather than merely passively demanding knowledge from others."
