Note taking =========== I'm trying to get better at note taking right now since I feel like my memory problems mean that while I read prodigiously I often don't know what I know, if you know what I mean. I spent a single night playing with org-roam before it became clear that the zettelkasten style note-taking is not what my brain likes. I mean, look, I like the idea of easily linking between different aspects of thinking but also I can just use the normal org-mode linking between headlines instead of having all these separate files that aren't easily browsable. I think it's going to be easier for me to keep track of things if I just have hierarchical Big Files in org-mode and use a lot of links to connect ideas more organically. topic shift ----------- Other than that I'm just sad right now, like impossibly sad. The melancholy of the pandemic is eating me alive right now.
