Came here to say this. I've been using Zim for a little over 2 years, now, and it's become an every-day planning/journaling/notebook/project habit. Lightweight and doesn't get in your face with complexities or

So much of what you write is true, yet ignores a vital value that the centralised websites do provide: discoverability. Not only does YouTube provide (sub-mediocre) search over all the [mb]illions of videos it hosts, it also is a hub: if

Consider, then, that your experience might be limited in ways that you're unable to see due to that experience-bias.

So basically exactly what Zim-Wiki does, except that Zim uses its own markup (can be copied as Markdown/text/pandoc, though). Otherwise every page is just a txt file, directory structure is respected, other files (images, etc.) ac

Or just mark Doubleclick as "untrusted" in NoScript? Along with gstatic, googletagmanager and a handful of the other common google domains, that is.

So time, then for a robots.txt with User-agent: Googlebot Disallow: / ? (Of course one would have to find an exhaustive list of all the web-spiders they have and their UA strings, but you get my point...)

Really? I've been on old.reddit since they first started messing with the design. Not once has that been "forgotten" by reddit.

Can you elucidate what you'd consider a "bad" internet connection? I live Out In The Styx, in a Shithole country, at the end of an allegedly 2MB/s piece of wet string masquerading as an internet connection that seldom li

A nice UX? Personally I've found Roam to be flaky as hell. (Perhaps it just doesn't like Firefox very much.)

So Zim-Wiki with the Backlinks plugin, then. Notes (wikipages) are stored as ordinary text files in a directory structure that is whatever hierarchy you've used in the notes. (I tend not to use hierarchy much for my every-day notes.) Z

Thanks for a more nuanced take on the model. The question in my mind is: How much time/energy gets eaten up in marketing a newsletter (or other paid subscription information product)? I suspect that lack of interest or skill in marketi

It is not authors doing the suing here. It is the big four publishers. All the demonising of authors over this has gotten out of hand and should just stop. That said, please explain[ ] just how* an author "can still make a living&qu

The premise of this article is quite flawed. We don't need to spend the money "researching threats such as climate change", we need to get off our collective duff and actually do something to stop dumping Carbon into the

They used to be called "science journalists". I think the reason they disappeared may have something to do with the fact that we (largely) stopped forking over money for what they did.

It doesn't matter that there are multiple groups with differing opinions at MS or at any other organisation. The organisation acts as a organism (or, if you prefer, as a set of emergent behaviours). It is, for all practical purposes, a

There have been similar systems for seed-sowing for decades. This is the first system I've seen anything like it for seedling transplanting, but the concept is not so far different from the seed-tapes that horticulture has used for qui

I'd argue that in actual fact we have an advertising industry. The rest follows from that.

Apologies for not tagging the title in the first place. Remiss of me, but no intent to mislead. Perhaps a mod might fix the title?

In the context of the cost of a building, the cost of these elements is near-insignificant. Less true if you're retrofitting them to an existing building, but for new builds (which is what OP suggested) they ought to be mandatory. IIRC

Due to the genetic diversity and maize's character as an outbreeder, this variety has already gone through a severe genetic bottleneck due to it having been rescued from only two ears of corn. Generally, in saving maize seed, we look t
