Please tell the community what you've been working on and share your plans for your zettelkasting this week.

This past week found me doing:

  • On Friday, my ZK surpassed 700k words, and by the end of the month, it may surpass 3k zettel. I'm slowly developing a sense of progress.

  • I gave up on the "Full Screen" workflow. I couldn't get it working with my Keyboard Maestro macros. I was having no fun.
  • Discovered a minor bug in my favorite advanced search querying macro.

My current plans for this coming week:

  • I will work all out on a minor bug in my favorite advanced search querying macro. It likely will require some more Regular Expression pixy-dust.
  • Reading - The Narrow Road To The Deep North by Matsuo Basho - Travel Journal
  • Reading - The Book Of Form And Emptiness by Ruth Ozeki - Fiction

Here are a few of the titles of zettel I've been working on last week.

These, along with the migration of 55 #code-snippets, make last week a ZK-focused week. Looking back, it feels like I only spent maybe two open and enjoyably stimulating hours per day working in my ZK. By working, I mean bathing in mind-weather and writing.

    keep trying to use the "incremental writing" concept I discovered last week.
    Integration in gardening and Spaced Repetition routines.
    Should not become an additional construction site, just a tool.

    202208041726 Effective Notetaking (Literature note)

    Now I’m reading A concise history of Germany by Mary Fulbrook and take some notes.

    *edit two typos and include the notes.
