This is a semantic Level-0 navigation of this braindump. For time-based index, see zettelkasten activity report The first and foremost, with the purpose of tieing subfields together.

1. Level-0 Index

I’m going to gradually populate this section and delete all others in this file.

2. Little notes

2.1. <2023-04-26 Wed>

As to this date (Apr 26 2023) the braindump is relatively small and I don’t intend to flood it with later-proven unnecessary intermediate hierarchies, I dump everthing here directly after it checked out inbox. But as structure reveal themselves in time, more appropriate intermediate navigations would be exploited.

2.2. <2023-12-29 Fri>

As to this date, the braindump has grown(285 notes), and I feel it is about time to review it, making it into a better form.

2.3. <2024-01-15 Mon>

Goal of the year
get this zettelkasten to the size of 10,000. All quality notes. References counts and are welcome.
how would 10,000 look like
it’ll take 2 week to review all of them.
to the primitive unit
10,000/year -> 30/day

The following chart start from today. I’ll return to assess the average increment per day to adjust the goal.

about this zettelkasten

This zettelkasten is my second zettelkasten with org-roam, and my 5th zettelkasten of all(there’s one other with Roam Research, 2 others with Obsidian).

This zettelkasten uses the org-roam implementation of zettelkasten. I typically use this zettekasten inside emacs, where zettelkasten primitives like search for note, create note, create link to note, find backlinks are implemented in the org-roam package and could be called with one custom keybinding.

There’s a public html export of this zettelkasten on Gehninfel (link). I did not filter the draft tag, so everything’s on there. In the future I might want to change this.

There are 5 main categories/directories to the notes:

main
ideas in the most literate form
article
compilation, blog and tutorials
reference
noting something that I did not come up with
doc
typically on code-heavy notes and those that tangles
project
on projects, archive, description.

I currently use a giant index zettel to keep all of my notebase connected. Now it is one file with about 100 outgoing links to other zettels. In future I’ll make more intermediate navigation/index notes and replace some links on index with them.

I don’t use tags in the zettelkasten, but use navigation notes, with the latter half of the idea Tag and link: Gate and corridor.
