Note Taking

E2EE Security

End-to-end encryption for notes that must stay private - balanced against convenience.

Evergreen notes stay useful - timeless phrasing, clear claims, updated when reality changes.

Fleeting notes catch sparks; evergreen notes hold truth. Both lanes, clear promotion rules.

When a note is only a quote, I add what I actually believe from scratch.

Format notes for rereading - headings, short paragraphs, bold on the claim.

Future-proofing is plain text, open tools, and exports you test before you need them.

Graph view finds orphans, hubs, and notes you forgot to link - not just pretty pictures.

GTD runs my tasks. PARA runs my notes - cousins, not competitors.

Cite sources so you can trust your synthesis and find the original six months later.

Between tasks, jot what just happened and what's next - interstitial journaling clears the buffer.
