Right? What kind of person teases us like that and then doesn’t share the method :|

ethical capitalism

:D

Use - to exclude a search key. E.g. path:-“templates” or -tag:#diary.

I forgot about filtering in graph view. Thanks a lot for the reminder!

I don’t get the naming convention of a Zettelkasten. What if you have two notes about radioactive mayonnaise, but with different timestamps?

The story turns out to be an act of revenge by the co-author, who donated 10 million pound to Cameron’s party in hopes of being given a cabinet position. After Cameron refused to give him such, Ashcroft co-wrote an unauthorized “biography” of Cameron.

With this in mind, I wouldn’t give this story any second thought other than the realization that Ashcroft is an utter tool.

What you are citing, that willpower is being used up over the day by decisions, is called ego depletion and it is wrong! There are experiments where two groups were either told that this is a thing or the opposite, that willpower is strengthened by every decision instead, and it turns out, that both groups had different willpower self assessments at the end of the trial in accordance with the theory of willpower they were told in the beginning, meaning it’s just a placebo in the end. Neither ego depletion nor the opposite exist, but people feel as strong in willpower in accordance with their belief of how willpower works.

Daniel’s Jack?

Why?

Inventors of those patents are Robert L. Sweet and Alan B. Densky. Those names mean anything? I don’t know them and I don’t get the point you are trying to make…

3. After WW1 and the Ottomans were defeated, it passed onto the Turkish (Islamic).

4. After WW2 the Turkish were defeated and they lost it to Britain. In the same war the surviving Jews were displaced worldwide and had no country to live, so the League of Nations (U.S, Britain, Canada, France mainly) decided to give Jews a new home and call this new place the State of Israel. They put Israel right in the middle of the British controlled Palestine, which no Islamic nation could object to because they were all defeated in war.

Turkey never fought in ww2. Turkey was already after ww1 completely stripped of territory in the Levant. There also was no league of nations after ww2 anymore, but the UN was founded. No Arabic nations were defeated in ww2. Some of 4. happened after ww1 not 2. The creation of Israel was heavily objected by the neighboring Arabic nations, see 6-Day-War.

They are talking about dark matter not dark energy.

Assuming a key akin to “deadline”, you could use or adapt the following:

WHERE dateformat(deadline, “yyyy-MM-dd”) <= dateformat(date(today), “yyyy-MM-dd”)

Or work with note creation date:

WHERE dateformat(file.date, “yyyy-MM-dd”) <= dateformat(date(today), “yyyy-MM-dd”)

Instead of “today” use “this.file.name” when working with daily notes as in your case.

To have the list be divided into completed and unfinished, skip the “!completed” and instead use:

SORT completed

Add DESC to reverse order.

Another option would be to have two separate dataview queries. One for completed and one for unfinished tasks.

Nothing will ever make the Flooble Crank obsolete 😌

Yes, mine does this too. He fixes the arm with his teeth and then starts licking my arm. Eventually he gags, but continues anyway. I call it “lollypopping”.

They lose money if they do it.

Do what?

Executives are interested in preserving their buddies and their investments in large corporate rental space.

How does forcing their own workers back into their office raise or lower the value of their own real estate? If they use it, they won’t sell it, value is irrelevant then.

I doubt that executives are that clever. I’ve seen this conspiracy theory circulating atm, but it relies on so many assumptions that I consider it unlikely. It assumes that executives “help” each other out by willfully spending money for office space and all it costs, that could be saved in expenses by employees working from home. Corporations are obsessed with cost cutting, why would they willfully waste money? It also assumes that corporations help each other out. Considering the fierce competitiveness corporations are exposed to and how this extends to all fields, including office space, employees, office equipment, etc., this is nothing more than a conspiracy theory. Another assumption is that the push for a return to the office comes from ALL or mostly all executives. Is there actually data supporting this claim? Who is really doing this?

What I think is the real reason, is far simpler and requires less mental acrobatics to justify: The people, who are pushing for a return to the office, (a) have a stake in the performance of the company and (b) are not working themselves when they are supposed to be working from home. They then project their own behavior upon others, and therefore push for a return to the office to, in their mind, prevent their enployees from slacking off.

It’s a system to organize information based on the following criteria:

• Location
• Alphabet
• Time
• Category
• Hierarchy

Thank you! This is pretty much how I go about it, but the manual work load is still great.

In my case it is the adoption of LATCH, a concept I only encountered after I had already been using Obsidian for some time. Not to mention that my LATCH template already changed once or twice, until I found what works for me, but this still leaves the possibility open for future changes to it and another round of mass edits. Deciding on a more fundamental level, if and how or if at all I should address these changes is a question that I have not yet found a decisive answer to.
