What happens at the intersection of an idea?
Answer: Ikigai I've been trying to structure my procrastination. I call it positive directional procrastination. These are some of the results. @thomasteepe has got me thinking about tools for idea creation. Even though this one is specifically a digital one, I still want to credit Thomas. Maybe he'd rather I not mention… -
"Content notes" and "Structure notes" – Should these terms be replaced?
When it comes to what kinds of notes should make up a zettelkasten, the usual answer given on this website – inspired by Luhmann's original approach – is: content notes and structure notes. Content notes are supposed to be about one (and ideally only one) interesting idea/thought like "The nutrient-density in our… -
Re: Does your ZK have any "Home" notes? If so, how do you maintain it?
You can use structure notes to facilitate access to multiple notes. Does this help? -
Re: GPT4 Zettel Critique Assistant (Robo Zettel Feedback)
One method for improvement is to work with an AI assistant to develop critiques of Zettels. The following Zettel is a snapshot of a three-way dialogue between the Zettler (me), the Zettelkasten (as a communication partner in Luhmann's account), and an AI Assistant (ChatGPT4). Immediately after is ChatGPT4's critique of my… -
Re: Less than 100 notes and already feeling overwhelmed: I need help! :-D
For what it's worth, I think you're doing it right. You're interacting with most of your notes when adding new notes. That doesn't help you in your question though. I have about 700 notes in my Zettelkasten and picked a few notes as "starting points". I have 14 notes that serve as the beginning of a chain of thought and… -
Re: Folgezettel is More than Mechanism
@taurusnoises We can't advance the discussion in a useful way unless we take care of making the trails transparent. Please supply quotes so we can follow what your interpretation is based on: Which part gave that impression? If by 'the source article' you mean Understanding Hierarchy by Translating Folgezettel and… -
Re: Note hierarchies: Why do so few tools support them?
I started with the same worry. Breaking changes are scary. AFAICS, the best Software tool that mimics Luhmann's hierarchy is Zkn3. It provides a tree view for the entire structure of the Zettelkasten. Note that Luhmann's Folgezettel is not a hierarchy of classification, so cities are not necessarily listed under notes for… -
Re: Mathematical definition of Folgezettel
Cheap Shot 202110110841 I'm testing these ideas by speaking out loud. "I don't know what I think until I write it down." 1 Yes, now I see just how cheap a shot it was. I have to leave aside my confabulated ideas about folgezettel ID's. We are talking about them without handicapping them on physical notecards. If we limit… -
Re: Identifying patterns in different types of notes, and how to optimally design outline notes
Relax, maybe too much focus on the current snapshot of your vault. After a thousand notes, things will look different. The so-called ratio between heavily linked notes and the notes with sparse links will change. After ten thousand notes, it may change again, and you’ll be frustrated with some other aspect of your vault.…
