Inspired by Zettelkasten and Feynman Technique. I started taking so-called ‘smart notes’ for any thoughts that came to mind, whether I was studying, working, or waiting for the morning commute train.

Through these brain dumps, I hope to make sense of what I learn, connect the dots, build an extension of my brain (the second brain 🧠), and develop new ideas.

These notes are digital copies of selected entries from my physical notebooks.

Topics I often think about 🗂️

What tools do I use to take these notes?

  • Obsidian for editing & syncing notes across mobile devices
  • Emacs for text editing & coding
  • Quartz for publishing
