1. Mainly book summaries/notes/reviews. Planning to evolve it into full-scale compilatory essays. 2. About once a week or once new material is available i.e. I've finished a new book. 3. Github because I haven't gotten around to hosting it on a "real" domain yet. 4. https://skorbenko.github.io PS. Any comments as per the improvement of content/styling/direction is welcome. You can comment here or shoot me an email through the form on the website.
I use NVAlt with a quite complex tagging method. All in all, I guess you could say that it is a Zettelkasten notebook. [1]
Atul Gawande wrote a fantastic book[0] on the topic.

Is there a way to make this work via cryptocurrencies? Just looking to start a discussion.
Actually, I made something of the sort that you're asking for [1]. Thank you for checking it out, and I would love to hear some healthy criticism!
I wholeheartedly second your opinion on Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's book. In fact, I liked the book so much I even tried to condense it into somewhat of a summary [1]. The book is thought to be a Modern Classic, and at least in my opinion, it deserves the title. Deep Work has some interesting ideas, but is not yet time-proven, whereas Flow is.
Just my 2 cents ;-)
What you propose is perfectly decent and centrist. With the current political climate and the power echo chambers have over people’s radicalization, however, centrists are practically unelectable.
As a Gen Z-er, email for me is an opportunity to write long letters, mulling over every word to convey the emotion just right. However, if I am with someone at the present moment, all of my attention is on him/her.
Exactly- it is the best I have found so far. However, the main problem hides in everything to do with images, as they cannot be appended to a text document. Because of that, I am using this naming scheme: example.txt needs an appended image. In the doc, I write “[0]”, and create an image named example-0.jpg.
I’ve given up on absolutely everything; As of now, I just keep .txt files in my Dropbox, accessed via any app on the market.
As far as I know, Slack and Telegram are currently the two leaders in the “searchable” area of messaging apps.
A great example indeed. Photography is about capturing the moment- to do that, one often needs to capture the sentimental feeling, and while the Game Boy does not capture the feeling, it gives the photo its own vibe. Susan Sontag would argue that the above is not a photograph; it is art.
Russia has not banned Signal yet. A possible reason may be that a) Telegram is still way more popular b) Telegram was (and still is) a major networking service for the Russian opposition
Didn’t Siraj Raval make something like this in his book on dApps?
Russia is planning something like this, although the coin is far from reality. Venezuela has already put the coin out there, and it is called El Petro. From the above we can see that some countries are working on this already. However, as ErikAugust noticed, the thought is cringe worthy to the Bitcoin/crypto loyalists.
