2025-09-18 11:38:07 +0200 | <tjakway> | this was definitely better than trying to learn it all the hard way |
2025-09-18 11:37:41 +0200 | <tjakway> | anyway, I've got to go, but thank you all so much! |
2025-09-18 11:37:17 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> I'm sm, the bridge is just carrying my words from the Other Side :) |
2025-09-18 11:37:04 +0200 | <tjakway> | word documents are already a nightmare to index and it's worse if there isn't a great system for them... |
2025-09-18 11:36:28 +0200 | <tjakway> | haskellbridge: that's something I've definitely realized in the past year |
2025-09-18 11:36:24 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> tjakway I used to use a lot of org outlines, now it's almost always markdown and obsidian (or when more convenient, the markdown modes in emacs in vs code) |
2025-09-18 11:35:14 +0200 | <tjakway> | jreicher: OK, I will do that |

2025-09-18 11:30:19 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> core notes that aren't in public project repos are under ~/.notes and I sync some of those to mobile with obsidian sync |
2025-09-18 11:28:51 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> where you keep your notes files matters a lot for organisation, accessibility, access control etc. |

2025-09-18 11:14:12 +0200 | <jreicher> | tjakway: you know there's quite a lot online about this kind of thing? If you search for "plaintext something-or-other" it turns up a fair bit. A lot of it references GTD and tools for it. |

2025-09-18 11:05:54 +0200 | <tjakway> | haskellbridge: I've always felt submodules were the afterthought of the git SCM system, the rest of it is pretty well put together and submodules... are not |

2025-09-18 11:04:40 +0200 | <tjakway> | I back it up daily because I'm aware I'm taking the system well past its reasonable breaking point |

2025-09-18 11:02:40 +0200 | <jreicher> | Task lists and knowledge notes are a bit different though. I know org uses use it for both though. (I'm not an org user) |
2025-09-18 11:02:33 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <maerwald> please |
2025-09-18 11:02:31 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <maerwald> submodules? |

2025-09-18 10:59:21 +0200 | <tjakway> | I did think it was kind of amusing that I never actually used it as an SCM, just for its issue tracker |
2025-09-18 10:58:42 +0200 | <tjakway> | It had a very easy wiki syntax and D. Richard Hipp writes very good software |
2025-09-18 10:57:47 +0200 | <tjakway> | so I could make tickets for myself on things to do and link notes to them |
2025-09-18 10:57:19 +0200 | <tjakway> | I actually used the fossil SCM as a personal ticketing system and it worked very well |
