I use a dedicated voice recorder to think while I walk. It has made a world of difference in my thinking. And no, a phone with an app is not the same. A button you can press anytime that just records is a godsent. No notifications, no chats

The Economist is optimistic there won’t be a rerun of the dotcom crash. Still it's not clear to me what the consequences of this slowdown are. Is this a renaissance opportunity for bootstrapped companies to take more of the economy?

Oh, a memex (aka zettelkasten). That's a perfect match for the format. I have > 5000 notes and would love to publish at least a fraction. And they are not about tech, which I think would be refreshing for the atom aggregators (which
