Tried something different with The Wealth of Nations—built a reader instead of just reading it.
Inspired by Karpathy’s idea of interacting with text using LLMs:
https://x.com/karpathy/status/1886200943471157418My latest vibecoding experiment:
https://mrdee.in/vibecoding/vibecoding-012-wealth-of-nations-reader/Classic texts are dense. Linear reading feels… limiting.
This is an attempt to turn reading into something more interactive, exploratory—almost conversational.
Less “consume”, more “engage”.

"What would you rather have: a tool that thinks for you, or a tool that makes you think?"

So I've been working on an AI assistant for Logseq, a note taking app. Think of this like a "Cursor for Logseq".
I'm quite happy as to where it's at right now, but I have a long way to go.

Do you have a half-baked idea for tinkering with your personal knowledge management system #pkm? Maybe it's an idea for an #Obsidian plugin, local #RAG over your notes, or a much overdue Notion database rehaul? Stop by at the #ToolsForThought hack day on Sunday, November 16th. luma.com/h2mjbhjf

What I really need is a tricycle for the mind. Or training wheels.

And one more final lightning talk. @gregdetre.bsky.social is going to share his living articles prototype. Thanks for joining us Greg! P.S. yes, the event is pretty much full up.

Large Language Models as Thinking Tools
-
I follow quite a lot of the #toolsForThought / #toolsForCollaboration space, and it never ceases to amaze/baffle/puzzle me how many of the tools in that space are Apple-only. How the fuck do you expect to collaborate with people who don't live in the Apple Walled Garden if your tools are MacOS only?

@amerpie LYT kit by @nickmilo has some great concepts and is easy to tweak https://forum.obsidian.md/t/ideaverse-for-obsidian-formerly-the-lyt-kit-now-available/390

Obsidian changed the way I take notes - it's amazing.
It’s literally building a second brain.
No more scattered docs/notes. No more “Where did I write that down?”
Just clean, connected thinking - And a productivity system that actually scales with you.
You have to try it to really get it.

Tools for thought ≠ just apps.
PKM isn’t new—and it isn’t just digital. From notebooks to mind maps, analog tools still play a powerful role in how we think, write, and learn.
Don’t let shiny new toys and apps distract from solid thinking and meaning making.

Trying to decide: Obsidian.md or Logseq — which one is the ultimate tool for knowledge management and note-taking?
Both have their strengths, but I’m curious:
Which do you use and why?

Gleich gehts los! Community Event des [[notizlab]] (https://notizlab.de/)
Heute: Obsidian (https://obsidian.md/) Grundlagen von und mit David Lohner
Vorfreude 😀
Komme doch gerne demnächst auch dazu, wenn es z. B. um #Wissensmanagement von Lernen und Lehrenden geht oder wenn wir #Mythen dazu entlarven!

Celebrating NENO's 5th birthday today with a new major version v10.0.0 🎉
There's a new navigation rail, new scripting view, improved accessibility (labels and focus indicators) and lots of small improvements.

Many of us have been on this quest for years now. #toolsforthought have to be multi-player to support the networked orgs that exist throughout our family, personal, and professional lives.

I wrote recently about #AI for IA (intelligence augmentation) and it looks like Stanford is paying attention. ;-)
"We encourage the university to view goals in this space in line with the philosophy of Stanford’s Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI) to make sure that the use of AI is centered on improving the human condition. Thus, we prefer to focus on “augmenting human capabilities” versus “replacing humans.”"

I asked STORM for an article on #Augmentation of Human Intellect and Tools for the Extended Mind.
-
"Inventing on principle" by @[email protected]
"outlines principles for designing cognitive tools"
-
Free PDF of my ebook, Mind Amplifier

I first heard of "the extended mind" via cognitive philosopher Andy Clark. I interviewed him in 2011:
-
Prompt: With concepts of extended mind, cultural technologies, augmentation of human intellect, work of David Chalmers, Doug Engelbart, Howard Rheingold, Robert K. Logan, Alison Gopnik in mind, describe in detail how large language models can be used as tools for thought. Include examples & skills necessary to learn in order to master this use of large language models.

Throwback to Feb 2020 👀, when I first started designing StoryAI–a textual low-code editor.
After struggling to explain how the editing should "feel", I ended up having to dust off my After Effects skills one weekend to draw this up!

I thought Brexit was a pretty dunderheaded self-own, but what's going on in the US is just orders of magnitude more stupid.
I've always thought that computers (#PersonalComputing, #ToolsForThought) should enable us to think better, to cooperate better, to communicate better. Instead the evidence seems to be that networking them together was a Bad Idea and has made us collectively more stupid than ever in human history. Or perhaps we were always that stupid, only now we have a light on it.

Use Whatever Works. Why You Don’t Need a Sophisticated System for Effective Knowledge Management.
To promote effective PKM, consider the following:
1. Start Simple
2. Be Intentional with Tools and Features
3. Focus on Concepts and Practices, Not ToolsRead more: https://doi.org/10.58079/12jbw

Checking out #NotePlan . What I like?
• file over app concept; local files in markdown format ⇒ files are under my control even thought app might go out of biz
• It it interoperable with @obsidian . I can use both together, if I want. How nice!
• It even supports the same format for linking to a heading in a note like #obsidian - [[note#heading]]
• Syncs via iCloud. I have to pay a commercial license & for sync in Obsidian. If I use #setapp (https://setapp.com/) it becomes even more cheaper since I can use lot of other apps for the same price
• Availability of bi-directional links
• In addition to all these, I like their integration of tasks and calendar into note taking - both of mobile and macTesting it out for a while. So far, I use a note-taking app for a day and then switch to obsidian because Obsidian is beautifully designed. Let me see how long I use NotePlan 😀
Got to know NotePlan from the list shared by @kvistgaard here: https://www.strategicstructures.com/?p=2591

Wissensmanagement ist nicht tot! 👀 Auch wenn man es in Anbetracht der raschen Entwicklung von KI-Anwendungen so vermuten könnte.🤔
Dr. Stefan T. Siegel und @davidlohner zeigten in ihrem Workshop «Lehrbezogenes Wissensmanagement», was «Tools for Thought» sind und wie sie eingesetzt werden könnten.

Playing with Meemoo... webcam into particles into trails, makes something like a slitscan pixel paintbush?
Send me a screenshot if you play: https://app.meemoo.org/#gist/78b469fa2969a7c06146ae84c9500071
@pvh has convinced me that the next version should do history and sync with #Automerge, and @orion has me thinking again about Meemoo semantics in a more freeform @tldraw canvas...

Five Models for Making Sense of Complex Systems
| by Christina Wodtke
| MediumFive diagrams are particularly useful for understanding complex systems. This seems more important every day, as we are all complexifying things full time.

Imagine interacting with your connected notes with a more engaging canvas view… that is programmable! “Visual-Semantic Morphism” is just one thing that came up in this cool presentation from @orion
