Yes. I almost settled on Microsoft OneNote. I just don't like several things of it. The writing and reading experience is not great. And I constantly find I really need one note to belong to multiple categories, but OneNote forces me to think where to save a note (which leaves me writing fewer notes).

I used to think so. Now I believe it's a misconception.

Not all your notes can be just Markdown format. You will have image files. And then different apps handle image file location differently. Joplin turns attachment filenames to random strings.

Also, Markdown format is insufficient. I will need categories and subcategories, etc. And then different apps handle those differently.

There are comments recommending popular apps like Notion, Joplin, Obsidian, etc. I find hard to trust those apps will last 10, 15, or 20 years. I have switched note-keeping apps a few times in the past and no longer want to do so. That's why I decide I will not use any of those apps.

Now I use MediaWiki through docker (with Sqlite database) on my home server. It's lightening fast for my personal use, and comes with tons of powerful features (categories, subpages, templates, math syntax, etc.). Because MediaWiki is the same system running Wikipedia, I believe it is very likely will run 10, 20, or even more years. It is not the most convenient to use, but I don't use it for quick notes, for which I just use the default note app on my phone.

I stopped paying for Evernote two years ago. I guess the more individual customers leave, the more it makes the management depending on business users, so the less they care about individual customers.

I am not sure about his case, but it's not very hard for a talent student to get $1k scholarship every month. That's lot of money to use if he does not need to pay for his living expenses.

Yeah better than those spend most of their money and time on "cool" stuff, like clubbing, travelling, hiking, biking, etc., which = I don't know what to do but I just don't want to work.

The worst of all are those websites that only show the content in search engine. When you click the link to their webpages, you can only see random texts have nothing to do with the search result at all. There must be some really narcissistic programmers behind these.

Is Tesla a progressive company? And what does that mean?

My impression is that they totally gave up the customer market and focused on the business market long ago. So I gave up on them too.

solar generation farm takes way too much land. If it's in a desert, that would be fine. But many of them are on otherwise beautiful mountains, how can this be environmentally acceptable?

Not really. It sounds like someone does research on financial regulation or a technical bureaucrat who works in related agencies, not a national top government official.

So you are saying there is a clean cut between the Secretary of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Chair from the finance sector? And somehow she is also a "financial professional" at the same time, which is just fine?

It is just ridiculous to call her "a financial professional". She was a top regulation official. Now she is a top regulation official again. How can you just call her "a financial professional". I don't understand your "don't understand". Did you just hear her name the first time or something?
