• docs

  17 119 8.2 Clojure

  Logseq documentation (by logseq)

  

LogSeq is another interesting tool in this space. Its primary differentiator seems to be letting you attach arbitrary key-value attributes to pages and blocks and then query things in your workspace to create ad-hoc tables. https://docs.logseq.com/#/page/advanced%20queries

  Another piece of your extended mind

This is my approach!

I'm using HPI [0] as a sort of universal API for almost all of my data (manual notes, bookmarks, instant messages, internet comments, etc)

Then I use it in tools like Orger [1] and Promnesia [2] which function as my second brain

Here is the page from my knowledge graph on Tmux:

https://github.com/JeffreyBenjaminBrown/notes-in-org-format-...

See in particular the passage "send text to a tmux session|window|pane".

In Emacs, `M-x desktop-save` and `M-x desktop-change-dir` will let you save your session state and restore from a saved state. Also handy is the command `process-send-string`. I use it in the below (from my .emacs config) to mark one buffer as the "receiving GHCI buffer" and then send text from another buffer to be evaluated in that one.

• mind-palace

  2 8 0.0 Python

  Mind palace: mnemonic note taking system.

That's a cool extension, I didn't know about it.

I built an entire app around the idea that every note participate sin the spaced repetition queue. For me it has made a lot of difference, as I have managed to internalize (as in put into a practice) a lot of the stuff that I put into my "second brain", for example insights from books I have read, videos I watched or blog posts, etc:
