Comment on Ask HN: How do you organize your knowledge?

Comments

I see two sides of this. There's information collection and knowledge keeping.

The information collection: When I'm learning new things and sorting by what is interesting I simple bookmark a lot of stuff. It could be a blog post, a research paper, a book recommendation etc. All this is raw information until I take the time to consume it and digest it. Here I use https://lxi.ai/ (disclaimer: I built this) to keep my bookmarks organized with a lil ML.

The knowledge keeping: While I consume/digest I take notes in obsidian. I like working in markdown and having everything stored locally is something that keeps me comfortable. The real key here is putting in the time and actually merging what I am learning with what I already have in my obsidian "second brain".
