Focus follows mouse.
Takes some getting used to, but it’s really nice once you’re tracking it.

99% agree. We will find it as absurd as considering horse-drawn carriage as a contemporary mode of transport, and while legal overall, their use is prohibited on interstate highways, as will be manually-driven vehicles. And we might not even have to wait 50 years!
There are parallels to when autopilot first began to proliferate in aviation. I’d have to do some research to confirm, but I am certain there was at least a segment of people who would have said they trusted pilots to fly more than autopilot. Now it’s 99% autopilot. The pilots of scheduled air services typically hand control to autopilot fairly shortly after departure, and for quite a long time before arrival. In some cases there are even autopilot-coupled approach to landings… and nobody bats an eye.
We collectively spend millions of hours in traffic, and lose thousands of lives to preventable accidents (like drowsy/sleepy/influenced driving).
Aviation made the switch to save lives, and eventually drivers will, too.
When we look back, we’ll wonder how we were such savages about insisting we drive manually.
Even wilder than that will be some form of social compromise in fully-autonomous vehicles.
People won’t want to part with the flexibility of driving their own cars, and once things are standardized and safety records are proven, people will eventually find acceptance in automated vehicles.
I hypothesize that major thoroughfares/highways will be fully-automated and only surface streets will be self-driving. This is a sort of hybrid-solution which generally addresses a great deal of traffic issues.
An interesting game to play when driving around the US is “Prison, or School?”
The rules are simple. When driving past any complex with tall fences, quickly blurt out if it’s a prison or school. Then look for signage or check a map application to verify.
You’d be surprised how often you’ll get the answer wrong.
One need only to look at nations with exclusively state-controlled media is allowed.
Which application or software one uses is far less important than which note system to use. Mainly, the best note system is the one you actually use. Bear in mind, the system used depends on context.
Academically I rely heavily on Cornell Note Taking System, and recently I’ve dabbled with atomic style notes using Obsidian. There are plenty of trade offs on those two systems, but I found tremendous value in being able to back reference the same note over and over again.
For one-off reminders, I just message myself. Long term reminders end up either on my calendar, or more recently on Trello.
Keep experimenting. Keep what works, dump the rest; avoid being dogmatic to a note system, application, or software.
Ultimately, it’s what it’s.
Price of obsidian gonna skyrocket.
Cape CANNA VERR ALL = Cape Canaveral
Why? Because I can.
Except Sacramento is the capital of California, Debbie gonna struggle
