Was pleasantly surprised, seeing a hackernews post on films!

  Looks handy for me as I've started to write a short, story driven game.

  It involves note taking which is an HN obsession

    I don't care at all about note taking, but I am obsessed with algebra, and seeing how Coppola evaluates the "directors' homomorphism": first analysing Puzo's linear (aperiodic crystal) text into a set of chunks of meaning ("glass beads") explicitly connected by arrows and implicitly connected by order in The Book, then forgetting everything superfluous (in general, novels contain way more ideas than feature-length screenplays), and finally synthesising a new linear video stream encoding the few remaining beads (plus a few of your own, if you're feeling cosettish?); seeing that would almost be worth being indebted to Don Corleone. [Some day (and that day may never come) I hope to be able to carry out, as masterfully as Coppola, the work of transmutation] Lagniappe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZXHoWwBcDc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZXHoWwBcDc

    If only I could find the perfect note taking system/app combo I could create my own Godfather! (I am 100% guilty of this type of thinking)
