I appreciate your input and I like the monthly check-in items. Those are certainly relevant and would be useful looking back.

I'm often trying to influence my dreams and make things stick to my subconscious so they will surface up during them. I find your approach interesting.

Reading this article and the comments here make me want to journal again. After reading a book on taking smart notes and finally successfully implementing the zettelkasten technique into my daily life, I feel like I've drifted away from the traditional journal method. Where I now utilize a system of index cards to capture dreams, thought out ideas, task list and concepts, I previously held notebooks that I would attempt to write daily on all various types of things. Reading back on these is an amazing to relive and stir up new feelings.

I found that when I wrote and read things back later, I would have trouble remembering them fully. When I was using a "journal" daily, I started to capture a few key details with every entry to help with recall:

  1) Current date and exact time (ex. 10/9/23 @ 9:33am)
  2) Music / auditory ambiance (ex. X song was playing in background)
  3) Where I was while writing (ex. on couch in living room at X house)
  4) A trigger memory (ex. travelled back from X destination yesterday)

When I read the entries that include this metadata, it helps me re-live these times and further spark memories around them.

I'm curious if anyone else has key details like this they include with their journaling that help them. I have a mission to start journaling again and would be fitting to add anything else others might be doing.

I think the fact this was possible via the use of CF workers invalidates your point. Also, you choose to add the Domain Lockdown feature as a direct results of these findings.

I'd feel pretty silly too if my "email filters" kept me from acting sooner on this problem.

Back when Lenovo ran their outlet for refurbished laptops on very database heavy oracle backend (2011?), our little computer shop would buy stuff from them. If you added an item to your cart, it would hold it for 10 min and prevent others from purchasing.

I used AHK to script a process that would automatically add laptops to our cart based on certain search criteria. Then we could sift through their inventory and release what we didn't want.

It was running great until one day it went rouge (okay, was prob human error) and it added EVERY item to our cart and crashed their website. Database error came up, I called them and told them what I did and they were happy to know why it went down.

The power button broke on a dell laptop i was working on one time. We had to order the part, but the customer didn't want to wait.

I offered a very cheap alternative, and took his spare wifi antenna cables and cut the off. Then I soldered them DIRECTLY to the motherboard and routed them to hang out the side.

It was like jumper cables, you tap the and the laptop would turn on
