The idea was to have information in the shape you were looking for, which often means augmenting data already out there

  • links to good explanations if they exist already
  • details if most resources are summaries
  • summaries if most people only discuss details
  • a "why do this in the first place" and "maybe consider this instead"
  • a   "technically ..."   alongside a  "and usually this means..."
  • intuitive bootstraps, like how a friend might explain it
  • ...also in a “if you can’t explain it, you probably don’t understand it” sort of way.



It very much has also become a more messy general personal notebook for things like:

  • new interests


I try to distill over time.

I have only so much time, and too many interests ^-^

Also note that some of the entries are more opinionated than neutral.
