Gil's Week #202020

This week I...

• Used doom emacs at work. There's still lots for me to get used to, but I'm slowly getting there. The discord community certainly helps a lot.
• I'm still in my quest to find the perfect way to streamline information, I've been reading about other systems like zettelkasten. But I'm hoping that once I'm happy with emacs, I can switch to org-mode + org-roam and ditch vimwiki.
• As for information input, I was reading yesterday about RSS and it could be a way for me to have a lot of information curated by me so I don't have to mindlessly scroll through Hacker news or Reddit. Another cool tools I could use, are content systems such as: Polar, TagSpaces or Zotero. Which all look good, as long as I can sync the DB with git, I'll be fine. What I also want is a way to have a way where I can generate a PDF with all the news for the day / week that I can read offline, that would be awesome.

Sound of the week

• Carcass - Black Star (8bit)

Great URLs

• Metaphors in man pages, I love metaphors, so this was delightful to read.

Notes

Late again, but I did send it :).

Cheers, Gil
