I must admit that I have a slight FOMO over prompt engineering. I'm pretty decent at verbalizing ideas and concepts for external consumption, and my experience with ChatGPT 4 has been excellent so far, but I still feel that I'm mi

Maybe try Obsidian? It works completely offline, it's free, and its stores your data as a folder of markdown files. It should cover your personal wiki / Zettelkasten needs, plus, if you're willing to spend some time on learni

Exactly. I would honestly prefer blunt, straightforward, de-GPTified communication style. I hate the idea of wasting my time on reading substance-free filler, regardless of whether it was written by an AI or not.

Could you link the book? I'm interested because I'm considering self-publishing a book as well, and I definitely don't enjoy marketing.
