Three Rules of Knowledge Gardening

1. Make short notes; create enough context to help out your future self
2. Connect your notes
3. Nurture your notes; revisit, build, feedback

Q&A

Dave Rogers - we should challenge our notes rather than "nurturing them";

JA: Perhaps we could use AI/GPT to "steel man" our arguments?

Phyllis Diller's gag file appears to have been made of 16 standard three-drawer beige Steelmaster (Art Steel Company, Inc.) index card files which were stacked in two columns and enclosed in a matching beige external frame which was mounted on casters. Having overflowed the 48 available drawers, there was an additional 3-drawer file added on top as an expansion.

The Smithsonian dates the files from 1962 to 1994, but perhaps the digitized version can be searched by date to determine the actual earliest and latest dates on included cards as most had at least a month and a year.

They also include approximate card capacities.

I like cardboard file boxes for a bunch of reasons, all willfully idiosyncratic. The

Twyla Tharp's creative note taking system not only entails notes and ideas in boxes, but extends physically to a heavy-gauge industrial shelving which also holds her other tools for work including her "audio equipment, hundreds of music CDs, and piles of musical scores".

If it weren't for industrialism they would just be there in that space without the ability that these developments have given them. Holiday gift shopping would be such a different experience in downtown Chicago if elevators didn't exist.. I honestly think people would spend less because they wouldn't want to climb the stairs to additional stores to "just see what's in there".
