1. ZK and ReMarkable Integration

   

   by Sherpa · April 16 · Home› Software & Gadgets

   I am starting my journey into the ZK method and ran across a post from 2021 about using a ReMarkable to manage ZK cards. Many of the comments seem to have been addressed as the ReMarkable Team has improved the software. For example: * tags * the ability to add pages in notebooks These two topics seemed to be the biggest…

2. Merge archives

   I have two note archives for The Archive. To avoid switching back and forth, I am considering merging them in one. Is this advisable? If ok, how is it to be done? Please advise.

3. How to get the big picture first?

   

   by iylock · April 13 · Home› Workflows

   How can I get the big picture first and then learn the details with Zettelkasten? I think that learning the big picture first and then learning the details is the way to learn faster. This is my experience. The video below is what I agree with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYrODdCevd0 However, when I do Zettelkasten, I…

4. Trying to understand how to convert "Facts"/"Concepts" into "Thoughts"/"Ideas"

   

   by altidiya · March 31 · Home› The Zettelkasten Method

   Hello! I started my first Zettelkasten this weekend by the advice of a friend after me commenting my incapacity to be constant with Obsidian. For now I feel I'm good but one of my friends has tell me I'm making the mistake of making "Literature/Source Notes" and I can see it, I just feel I can't enter in the state of mind…

   I think you missed a first step: Collecting instances of Zettelkastens, grouping them, creating strong and weak connections between them according to differences and similarities. If I'd start this project, I would build a database of Zettelkastens with their various traits and characteristics, add my judgements of…

   Ahh! Thank you for the feedback. I didn't realize that Note 4 was already somewhat a comparison between the two approaches, so I could consolidate additional comparisons within that (such as how it works differently technically). Also, I find myself afraid to atomicize because the notes become so short, that it doesn't…

   @Andy Wow! Amazing. You made me see this clearly. Thank you. I especially like Ron Giere's template. Thanks to you, my vague concept of the big picture has been concretized.

   @Jackhansonc After reading your article, I realized once again that Zettelkasten depends on the person using it. Pre-work is something that I have to think about. I used to be reluctant to talk to AI, but I tried it and it was quite helpful.

   Skim a chapter for an overview. Do not outline or summarize. Pick out one concept or idea at a time and write a note about that. There is no need to rewrite the book, just pick out key ideas that are useful to you or are foundational concepts you need to understand for your domain. You are taking too many notes on things…

10. [Zettel Feedback] Notes on NAS, SHR and RAID

    

    by qalliope · April 13 · Home› Critique my Zettel

    Hey all! First time poster here (and long-time lurker). Over the weekend I went through the upgrade process for my Synology NAS (4TB to 12TB!), and I took some notes while doing so. I ended with 4 notes, which I'm really happy with but open to feedback I developed it through Google, Synology Knowledge Center and…
