       @kensanata In my view Zettlekasten is a methodology that can be implemented in a wiki (or on paper, or in text files). It's like GTD. It's a way of thinking about a system rather than software.For me, the breakthrough was to make atomic (single idea) posts and to interlink with descriptions of the links. I used Gollum, a git-based markdown wiki. Now I just use vim. But it was a shift in my way of working. For the better, I think.I wrote about it here a while ago here https://clerestory.netlify.app/zk

       Started 2004 with Ubuntu 4.10. I didn't really felt I understood it so I switched to Slackware. I learned a lot but it was a pain. After a few months I went to Arch Linux. Maybe 2011-2016 I ran Debian, then I switched back to Arch, and I'm still on Arch now. Also run a FreeBSD (once it was OpenSolaris) fileserver.

       I need to re-read Jonathan Hillis Miller's "Disarticulation of the #Self in #Nietzsche" (1981) for a discussion tonight.I'm still tempted to read a few more books on #Buddhism, around dependent origination (I wonder if Nietzsche could have been influenced by this doctrine).https://bit.ly/3UbBLPp

       Thought I'd say hello to everyone new with an #introduction :)I'm a #writer based in #London currently working on problematic tendencies in western #philosophy and how they have affected the #history of #science. I'm working on #pragmatism, an approach which will identify warning signs and propose alternative strategies when rationalist issues arise.Podcast:https://anchor.fm/bkamInfrequent posts:https://bryankam.substack.com/Frequent posts:https://www.patreon.com/bryankam

       I recently wrote an article on #Buddhism, specifically on using the concept of "dependent origination" to practically end suffering through #meditation in everyday life https://bit.ly/3UbBLPp

       Today recorded a #podcast out in the Woods for the first time. Took a bit of doing to get the volume right but I'm reasonably happy with the output.In this episode, I speak in the Wood about what I'm interested in why. This includes #Pyrrhonism, #Buddhism, #Spinoza, #Schopenhauer, #Nietzsche, #Hume, #Peirce, #Kuhn, #Jaynes, #McGilchrist, and more.https://pod.fo/e/165031
