#AuthorCommunity friends! I’m formatting my Mac and I have a tech question.
If I save out my Scrivener files and Vellum files and import them later as Scrivener (.scriv) and Vellum files (.vellum), they should still function when I reimport them, right?
I’m not going to get some weird error or something… right?

"In 2023, 60 per cent of Australians rejected a constitutionally recognised Voice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. A body that could only make representations, only on matters concerning the people whose ancestors have been here sixty thousand years.
"Too much, the No campaign shrieked. Division. Privilege. Special treatment.
"Nine months later, Anthony Albanese handed Jillian Segal what the Voice never dreamed of asking for. Not a right to be heard. Power. No election. No parliamentary vote. No hearing. A three year commission reporting personally to the Prime Minister, with a mandate reaching into every campus, newsroom, classroom, gallery, charity, arts contract and visa file in the Commonwealth."Andrew Brown writes: https://michaelwest.com.au/the-segal-state-the-office-australia-never-voted-for/

“The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled”*…
(Roughly) Daily is, in effect, a kind of notebook, a commonplace book. So it will be no surprise that your correspondent found today’s featured piece fascinating.
Jillian Hess, a professor who studies the history of note-taking, shares the lessons she took from her review of the papers of the remarkable Richard Feynman…
Formal education, at its best, prepares us for a life of learning. After all, we are only in school for a fraction of our lives and there is so much to learn!
Richard Feynman (1918-1988) understood the value of self-education. He was a Nobel Prize-winning theoretical physicist, a member of the Manhattan Project at the age of 25, and a dynamic public intellectual who never stopped learning.
Often touted as one of history’s greatest learners, Feynman taught himself a dizzying amount of science. I wanted to see his notes for myself—to observe the great autodidact thinking on the page. So, I visited his archives at Caltech in February…
… In the archives, I saw… for myself: Feynman’s notebooks contain imprints of thinking in real-time—the work as it happened. They were instruments for thinking through uncertainty.
What follows is a list of note-taking principles for self-education that I gathered while studying Feynman’s notebooks.
Start with First Principles: Feynman’s “Things I Don’t Know About” Notebook
Discussions about Feynman’s learning process usually draw from this notebook, which he compiled as a Ph.D. student at Princeton. The contents include mechanics, mathematical methods, and thermodynamics. Clearly, he knew something about these topics, but he found his understanding superficial. So, his response was to take the subject apart—to break it down into “the essential kernels” …
[Hess illustrates this principle, then unpacks two others: “create a reading index” and “keep learning.” She continues…]
… Uncertainty is Interesting
This is my biggest takeaway: We should fear certainty more than doubt. Learning to live with uncertainty is an essential aspect of learning, as Feynman said in 1981:
You see, one thing is, I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it’s much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong.
And then, in an echo of his “Notebook of Things I Know Nothing About,” compiled four decades prior, he adds:
…I’m not absolutely sure of anything, and there are many things I don’t know anything about.
If a man as celebrated for his genius as Feynman felt that way, certainly the rest of us have a lot more to learn…
[And she concludes…]
… Notes on Feynman’s Notes:
Use notes to think: Feynman didn’t think through problems in his head and then turn to his notebooks. Instead, he used his notebooks to think through problems. His thought process required paper.
Start with first principles: “Why” is a very powerful question. And asking why can lead us back to the fundamentals and help us understand them in an entirely new light. This applies to any subject. Feynman has helped me think of note-taking as a kind of expedition. Use your notes to dig deeper into topics you think you already understand.
Never stop learning: How wonderful would it be if we could hold onto the excitement of learning we had as children? After all, the world didn’t get less interesting. It’s worth returning to the note-taking methods you used in school to see if they are still useful in adulthood. I particularly like Feynman’s high school method of taking 30 minutes to understand a subject before he allowed himself to take notes on it.
[Then leaves us with the man himself, “in all his radiant, enthusiastic, brilliance”…]

On “Richard Feynman’s Notes For Self-Education.”
Pair with: “Curiosity Is No Solo Act“: “it gains its real power when embedded in webs of relationship and shared meaning-making”… something that Feynman’s life also demonstrated (as you can see in his autobiography and/or in James Gleick‘s biography, Genius)

As we light that fire, we might spare a thought for Jeremy Bernstein; he died on this date last year. A physicist who woked on nuclear propulsion for Project Orion and held research and teaching positions at Stevens Institute of Technology, the Institute for Advanced Study, Brookhaven National Laboratory, CERN, Oxford University, University of Islamabad, and École Polytechnique, he is better remembered as a gifted popular science writer and profiler of scientists.
Bernstein wrote 30 books, and scores of magazine articles for “general readers”– for The New Yorker, where he was a staff writer from 1961 to 1995, and for The Atlantic Monthly, the New York Review of Books, and Scientific American, among others.
Of Feynman, Bernstein wrote “[his] Mozartean genius in physics seemed to be combined with an almost equally Mozartean urge to play the clown.” (in which, of course, Feynman was in the good company of Einstein, Claude Shannon, and others :-)

We’re Millennial Doctors. Here Are The 7 Health Rules We Swear By.
Whether you’re a millennial or not, you’ll want to follow this advice for a long, healthy life.
For some people, it’s hard to believe that the oldest millennials are fully approaching midlife. Individuals in this generation encompass those born between 1981 and 1996, according to the Pew Research Center, making the oldest millennials 43 and the youngest 27.
It’s easy for those in this age range to feel like they have their whole lives ahead of them (because they do!), but the practices they do now are actually what set them up for health success as they get older.
What can millennials do now to age well? There is probably no one better to answer that question than millennial doctors. Below, physicians from different parts of the country and medical fields share their rules for staying healthy now and as they age. (And honestly, it’s probably advice all of us should be following ― not just millennials.)
Get regular physical activity.
“For me, physical exercise drives everything,” said Dr. Kenneth Koncilja, a geriatrician at the Cleveland Clinic. “When I’m more active, I eat healthier, I drink less alcohol, I sleep better. So for me, that is my foundation.”
Koncilja said he prioritizes time in the gym, particularly in fitness centers that have some sort of childcare or activities for his kids.
Dr. Renée Rodriguez Paro, a pediatric cardiologist in California, said she fell out of her exercise routine for a while and started to feel less happy and more burned out as a result. About 10 years ago, she slowly got back into her exercise habit.
“Just a little bit of exercise a day … it really just changed everything, and it sounds ridiculous, but it did make me feel better,” Paro said.
“I have a consistent exercise routine that I do six days a week and give myself one day of rest. I’ve run 13 marathons … I also strength train, because I definitely know the huge importance of muscle mass and … having mobility in the long term,” she continued. “I use the Peloton bike as cross training, have done some swimming, have done a triathlon, but my main exercise routine is running.”
Dr. Joshua Levenson, a cardio-oncologist and director of the Center for Cardio-Oncology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, emphasized the importance of maintaining muscle mass.
“For those who already feel ‘healthy,’ strength training — for women especially — is definitely one of the modifiable factors that readers can and should focus on now,” Levenson said. “We start to lose muscle mass over the age of 35, so keeping strength up now will pay off decades down the line.”
Lean into a plant-forward diet.
“Most recently, I’ve been trying to be better about doing things that we were taught as kids, like eat more vegetables, eat more fruits, so now I’ve been doing a lot of plant-based eating as much as possible,” said Dr. Kelly Cheung, a resident physician in Los Angeles.
Although practicing a plant-based diet is “definitely challenging because there’s a lot of meat … in our culture,” Cheung noted that research shows the diet can lower your risk of cancer.
Paro said she also focuses on a plant-forward diet.
“I’m not a vegan or vegetarian. I eat various different proteins, but I really try to focus on trying to get at least one serving of fruits and vegetables in with every meal and snack time,” she said.
Care for your mental health.
“I think another thing is mental health. I think we’re more likely than prior generations of physicians to be open and willing to discuss therapy,” Koncilja said. “Seeing different therapists and mental health providers are helpful for me to be more resilient day to day in my career and to relate to my patients who deal with their own stressors, depression and anxiety.”
All generations have pressure and cope with it in different ways, Koncilja added, but being open about mental health care and taking an active role in their own treatment is something he and his fellow millennial colleagues do.
Paro also shared that stress management is important for her.
“I have a daily mindfulness practice where I have a gratitude journal. I do a three-to-five-minute meditation every morning and have been doing that daily for about nine years. That has had a very profound effect on dealing with the daily stresses of being a mom and a doctor and in a leadership position and wanting to be a good wife and family member,” she said.
Dr. Janet Nwaukoni, a family physician based in Chicago, said that she also practices daily mindfulness and gratitude each morning. These exercises help you shape your day and create your narrative, which is essential to your overall health, Nwaukoni noted. Think about it: If you go into the day grateful for your family, friends and the sunshine, you’ll be less likely to dwell on the bad stuff, which can create stress and anxiety — both of which are tied to high blood pressure and trouble with sleep.
Many of the habits millennial doctors follow are ones that set their kids up for success, too.
Limit your interactions with microplastics.
“The most interesting and new health habit that has been reinforced by data is the conscious removal of exposure to plastics — and microplastics,” Levenson said.
Earlier this year, the New England Journal of Medicine published a paper that looked at plaque buildup in people’s carotid arteries, which are the blood vessels that provide blood to your brain. Researchers found that microplastics were getting into the plaque, and that the more microplastics someone had in their plaque buildup, the more likely they were to have a heart attack, stroke and even die, Levenson explained.
“I think the outcomes were very clearly worrisome … the likelihood of having a bad event was about four times more likely for those who had significant plastics in their carotids versus not,” he said.
This research has caused him (and many of his colleagues) to rethink his own relationship with plastics and try to limit them when possible.
“I think the simplest would be not microwaving plastics, even things that are described as microwave-safe,” he said.
This goes for reheating takeout drinks from places like Starbucks, since those cups are lined with plastic, Levenson noted. You can also replace your plastic food containers with glass ones and choose reusable water bottles over one-time-use plastic bottles.
“We need to be conscious about this, and I don’t think that we have even scratched the surface of understanding what these plastics are doing to our body,” Levenson said.
Get a primary care doctor.
According to Nwaukoni, it’s important that you establish care with a primary care provider or family medicine physician who you can visit routinely, whether for regular checkups or visits when there’s a problem.
“I would say family medicine is a specialty that is definitely one of its kind … you’re able to have a physician that can see you from as young as a newborn, all the way up until you age,” she said.
If you’re seeing a different doctor each time, they are likely unaware of your personal or family history, she noted. Someone who understands your background, goals and family history will be better suited to provide the best care.
Nwaukoni also stressed that you should know your family history, if possible, which can then be discussed with your primary care doctor. This way, they can help determine if you are at higher risk of any conditions and need to get screenings or testing done as soon as possible. They’ll also make sure you’re getting all of the screenings you need as you age, like colonoscopies, routine bloodwork and mammograms.
Foster your relationships.
“As humans, we are social animals,” Cheung said. But unfortunately, as we age, we lose a lot of our most cherished relationships, whether that’s parents, siblings or friends.
“I think socializing and having relationships becomes even more important,” Cheung added. “There’s also a lot of science evidence backing up that, as we get older, we’ll feel more socially isolated, and that can definitely impact our health.”
Social isolation is such a problem that the U.S. has declared it an epidemic. Social isolation and loneliness can put you at higher risk of dementia, heart disease, stroke, anxiety and more, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“Healthy relationships lead to a healthy life,” Paro said. She shared that she works to maintain meaningful and deep relationships with those who deserve it — not people who drain her energy or don’t understand the demands of her life.
“As we get older and as a professional, your time is limited and you have to be selective with the relationships you engage in … and then when you do have a relationship that you want to sustain … making sure you’re putting in the time that you can to spend with those people you know, getting in contact with them, being really open in your communication style,” Paro said.
Nurturing these relationships now and being open to making new friends will only help you have a strong social circle as you age. You can join community sports leagues, group fitness classes, religious organizations or local educational classes to meet new people for your circle.
Be a healthy role model for your kids if you have them.
A lot of millennial doctors are young parents, Koncilja said, which impacts how they go about their health journey, too.
“I want to be a good role model for my children,” he said. “I think that’s the biggest change in my health habits, is that it’s become less selfish and now more from being a role model for my children.”
As opposed to focusing on arms and abs at the gym a few years ago, he now focuses on a more holistic approach. Beyond exercise, if your kids see you practicing the habits mentioned above, they’ll become normalized, making it more likely that your kids will grow up eating nutritious foods, maintaining relationships and taking care of their mental health, too. So, not only are you taking care of yourself, but you’re taking care of future generations.
