   Algolia, Marginalia, Kagi, Scopus, ConnectedPapers, Lense[0] all stick to more or less traditional search and yield consistent high quality results. It shouldn't be one or the other, and I think the first one to combine both paradigms

   Isn't it precisely what makes knowledge and its management interesting? Just as the diversity of PKM solutions it has given rise to? Its definition being difficult to pin down is a feature--not a single knowledge, but a multitude of

   I'm not sure it's that fringe. Popular addages such as 'language is a vehicle for thought' and 'the pen is mightier than the sword' reveal that language is sometimes implied to be tool-like, with many of our un

   Some progress has been made in this area, see [0], [1], [2] and [3], observing both similarities and dissimilarities in terms of language processing: Siegmund, J., Kästner, C., Apel, S., Parnin, C., Bethmann, A., Leich, T. & Brechmann,

   Extending the 80/20 analogy, how much additional efforts does the last 20% take here? The format seems efficient enough, but I'm wondering about the complexity trade-offs one can expect.

    I just want to say you needn't feel pressured by relations that could have been by leading a private life. Love and kinship reach beyond knowing one's inner intricacies, and I feel the big stories don't matter all that much w

    But 100% compute != 100% efficiency? 'Pegging' cores to their maximum for the sake of utilisation seems wasteful where (for example) a simple bash script would have sufficed. Once the compute heavy pathways have established, I&#x2
