I’ve been keeping a notebook with multiple entries a week since about 2005. I’ve got 30 of them, full. Which makes me feel pretty nice. But in reality, I don’t actually revisit my notebooks very often. Their main purpose is to be a canvas o

Great post, Derrick! I learned almost precisely the same lesson in the same way over the same amount of time (a year) a few years back. It was _incredibly_ helpful to have those insights going into my next startup, and I approached customer

You've highlighted one of the primary challenges with such a filesytem. Determining what files have been modified as a _meaningful user action by the user_ (determined by the user thinking it was meaningful) and _what changed_ would be
