You don't need a "hardware wallet" for this. You just need your private keys.

Textbooks are expensive and the hardware/software solutions just aren't as low latency, tangible or as cheap as pen and paper. Also, not staring at a screen (especially before bed) is a plus.

Another thing that trips me up about clear cutting is the amount of organic matter that's removed from the forest that would otherwise return to the soil; soil nutrition has to be dropping like crazy in land that has been clear cut for

The author of this article wrote Deep Work, which stresses the importance of, well, deep work over more shallow tasks like responding to emails (it is stressed that shallow is not intended to be a deragatory term). I've seen his opposi

Hangovers, or alcohol? I find a glass in the evening to be like a second wind usually. It can put me in a relaxed, unstuck state. But I also generally stop right there, at a glass.

Thank you for the recommendation, Curtis Roads seems to be quite the synthey-book legend. I read portions of Computer Music, but your title seems much more relevant to precisely the subset of info I'm after.

There is also Emacs via Termux on Android (it's really not so bad if you enable modifier keys, like volume up for Meta, volume down for Control). This, in addition to Syncthing to sync files across devices, makes for a nice Org workfl

Do you have any recommendations for learning sound synthesis and such (for the purpose of music production) for those who are, as you say, programmers first? Most the materials I’ve found teach using Csound, PD, SC etc (understandably), and

Digital index cards can be kept closer (on your phone, in your pocket, always), and arguably lower friction too, no? And plain text is pretty flexible too. IDK, I just thought the concept was strange - but if it works for you, that's g

This is only slightly more future-proof than keeping text files on a computer. So slight, I'd argue the difference doesn't even matter. I don't see the advantages to this behavior over storing them digitally.

Just to be clear, you actively maintain a collection (database?) of 10,000 index cards, spread throughout various boxes? Out of curiosity, why do you not store these digitally instead?
