setting everything up

Well, I was a little sleepless tonight and had nothing I felt like reading or watching on TV. I was feeling this dull kind of boredom, which is pretty bad for me because I’m far too restless. So, at around 8 PM yesterday, I started a little journey.

I sat down at my PC, opened Obsidian, and started gathering Markdown files with notes that I consider pretty interesting.

Then I thought about taking it a little further, and I did. I decided to catalog as many of the services I maintain as I could. There are a lot of them. I didn’t finish everything, but I did as much as I could. I worked on it from a little after 8 PM until exactly 5:51 this morning.

I spent that time adapting things, creating connections, and customizing my MkDocs. To be fair, I didn’t actually write that much. The real work was separating and organizing everything.

I tend to compulsively catalog every bit of research and every bit of progress I make, and I do it methodically. Even so, I still find myself pretty lost quite often. I always need some kind of guide, a little reference booklet showing what was done, where it came from, and where it is going. I like to keep my system well distributed, especially because I consider myself a compulsive researcher who is never looking for just one piece of information, but rather for variables and variety.

That made me think about all the notes that never made it into Obsidian, so I threw everything I managed to recover into Murad Library. My endless research.

But in the end, all of this led me to something more useful, filtered, and organized: Murad’s Docs. Unfortunately, I still don’t have an English version, mostly because I’m too lazy to translate such a huge number of files.

But who knows, maybe one of these days.
