It looks so much cleaner in my eyes.
Plus it uses constant-sized indents, which means less futzing about with spaces and all that.
Also means you can comment out the first select item, something you can't do with the article's approach.
Mostly data science - been slow lately, but I’m working on a couple pieces again.
The AI thing has been jarring but it's nothing new. All part of the same process.
1. Cold weather operation. I get you're saying the units are good down to -15f, but there's nothing like the fact that I can talk to plenty of other people who have good experiences with Hyperheat at -15f to ensure that they'll actually work. Given I'm using these primarily for heat (the AC is a bonus), if they didn't heat well and efficiently at 0f then it was all pointless. 2. Repairability. Again, given I'm trying to use these as my primary heat, I need to know I'll have someone who will service the unit who can be here in a matter of hours. This is why I went away from the DIY route. Most installers around here (semi-rural New England) are super brand aligned and won't service the stuff they don't install.
Would be happy to help with user research if you're looking for folks to talk to.
> Getting lost in your knowledge management system is a fantastic way to avoid creating things.
> All of the above applies to reading books about note-taking, taking courses about note-taking, and watching videos about note-taking.
> I am waiting for any evidence that our most provocative thinkers and writers are those who rely on elaborate, systematic note-taking systems. I am seeing evidence that people taught knowledge management for its own sake produce unexciting work.
It sounds like Mr. Chapin is referring to formalized techniques or processes for format and organization of notes. But he doesn't give any examples, and I'm not familiar with the ones he hints at - I've never watched any YouTube videos on note taking or read any books on organizing your thoughts.
When I was in college, I took detailed notes in paper notebooks, and still do so occasionally when I'm sitting in a lecture. Otherwise, I send narrative emails to myself, write more business-style notes in Microsoft OneNote, or doodle in a small memo pad. It's clear to me that this is not what he means by a "note-taking system," but what is?
