The plan for Obsidian is to never grow beyond 10-12 people, never take VC funding, never collect personal data or analytics.
Continue building with the assumption that software is ephemeral, files matter more than apps. Use formats that are open and durable.

✍️ New: The big list of academic #writing resources
A list of books, blogs and tools to hone your scientific writing. I've tried to cover the basics of academic writing, deeper dives on style and even data #visualization.

This blog post will be updated regularly. Academic writing is a craft. Like all crafts, it requires practice, but it can also be learned. Unfortunately, resources to learn academic writing are somewhat scattered. In this blog post, I lost some of my suggested resources, including books and blogs, tools to help you write better, and other resources to improve your visualizations. Accompanying this post is The Big List of Academic Writing Tips.
The list is a companion article to another list of easy-to-consume tips on the narrative, grammar and style of academic writing.

This blog post will be updated regularly. When I started my PhD, I hated writing academically. I love writing, and I have freelanced as a writer for years, but I hated writing academically. I hated the process and I hated the end-product. It is a common feeling, but I decided to study scientific writing and, more specifically, how to lend my character to it while staying within the norms. This blog post contains tricks that I learned to take control of the story, the grammar and the form of academic writing.

I do not believe #ArtificialIntelligence will take over architecture, like many other industries, for two reasons.
First, because we need the human element. Consider the header image, a building imagined by #technology. The project's financial constraints and the available craftsmanship limit what we can do, but the #AI is blind to it.
Second, if we sacrificed creativity for profit margins, why would AI-generated mimicry of creativity change our minds?
The article misses the mark precisely because it ignores how we extinguished the human element from so many industries.
#AI should be a #technology that takes over our robotic tasks and lets humans express what makes us human. Instead, we gave humans the robotic tasks, and to the AI, we gave the human tasks—that is what the creativity in the article's images profess.
I feel like this article, about the possibilities of #AI killing off architecture, misses the mark. AI -feels like- it is killing off architecture because like in other industries, the pursuit of the highest-possible profit margin has extinguished the human element.
Blocks of copy-pasted apartments have invaded cities. They require no human ingenuity or creativity. They are robotic, so of course a robot could mimic the process.
