Fun read! A more intentional take on something I've done for years: when I have a lot of stuff to do or need to take notes very quickly, I will forsake any actual note system I have to open up notepad and just start typing. There really isn't anything else with so little friction. I have lost information from forgetting to save, so I've started trying to copy things to named .md files in obsidian ASAP, though.

Thanks KPH. Yeah, for me it was just about combining that kind of immediacy with some of the benefits that come with PKM. I'm sure the more complex systems work wonders for many, but they didn't do much for me.

This was a great read and I'm going to research how to add tags to my text file. I've tried before without adding tags before and search was difficult. I would love to find an example online to help.

@getoffmylawn you can just write the tags in using your own nomenclature or system. I use something like [STORY IDEA] as a tag and then i can just ctrl+f for that and find those tags. You can do this for dates, keywords, tags, anything. The search function is extremely powerful, most folks just underutilize it

Thanks, @getoffmylawn. I might do a follow-up with some examples since there seems to be a surprising amount of interest. But essentially, I just use the '@' sign as a "tag". Some people use colons, caps, hastags, brackets etc.

New post about OS's built for the end times. But really it's all just good fun (hopefully): https://mikegrindle.com/posts/collapse-os

Good eye. Dusk OS has been under heavy development for the past few months. The mailing list is very active. Virgil Dupras has recently put in a lot of effort in improving the emulation layer. The makefile in the root directory now works with no frills. Regardless of any theories of impending catastrophe, I think Dusk OS in particular is a marvelous project. It's the first real shot at a Forth Operating System.

Thanks! I noticed there was a lot of sensationalized stuff out there on these systems. Articles either made the developer look like a loon or made-out that the system was built for nuclear apocalypse. So I wanted to offer a more no-frills, down-to-earth analysis. Happy to see the project is still moving forward.

also, relatedly, i came across this verbalisation recently, which has stayed with me “Paper is like a mirror: it lets you hear the very voice of your soul, and it forces you to confront that.” (https://bikobatanari.art/posts/2021/magic-journaling)

It's basically been my writing philosophy for the last year or so and I think it has served me pretty well. I love that quote. Thanks for the link and will be sure to check out your new piece on the subject!
