NEW EP: Stem Cell Research, Lab Books and Collaborative Research with @cherrysun606, a second-year Ph.D student focusing on fetal growth restriction.

Listen here:

Cherry uses Roam for her lab work: as her Roam is very thesis-driven, she writes her notes for searchability and ease of use to plan out her experiments
Beyond that though, we talked about pitching Roam to others, and Thought Loss Anxiety!

With racing thoughts, Cherry uses Roam to capture all these notes as she's going through her day:
Transitioning into Roam from pen and paper, and Notion, making the distinction between Work and personal is important.

For her, pen and paper is meditative. Only for journaling. Handwriting is too personal to share with the world (but Roam for everything else!)
Overall a fun a varying conversation! 😁

Fun game: Count how many times I said 'interesting' lol

Scientists and researchers of #roamcult:

What would you like to see implemented in @RoamResearch to help you with your workflow?

Cherry shared some in our talk, but I'd love to hear your suggestions :) #research #experiments

Roaming 🎶

On the go🎶
Immediate behavioral changes: all my quick notes and random findings throughout the day I send it directly to Roam instead of drafts

Easier to send everything to DNP so I can sort and organize them EOD

Haven’t tried long sessions with a keyboard yet
Currently out and whipped out my laptop to sync my notes

Had both instances of Roam (had it running before I opened the laptop) and mobile Roam open

10s after connecting to the internet, immediate syncing between the both of them

Ahhh life is bliss

🧐 I have a feeling we explored this question in the convo with @beauhaan on the relationship between identity and note taking

We write to find ourselves, idolize those who have already done so, and will fight for our semantics and systems because really it’s us in written form
Maybe I’ll do a livestream to explore the question “Why you care about taking notes” next week
Hmmm. What else to add Image

Unconventional ways to grow your knowledge graph:

1/ Learn a language with a completely different structure. Recognise implicit and explicit meanings, contexts, and forms.

Apply that understanding to your semantics. Your notes are the language of perception of the world
2/ Watch a kid play with toys. If they stop using it as intended, they will imagine 20 ways to have fun with it.

Do the same. Your notes don’t have to stick to the same framework, line of thinking, and angle all the time. They are fleeting toys designed to occupy your time
3/ Record yourself saying your notes out loud.

Outliners are designed to ‘format’ connections we inherently understand on our screen. Saying them out loud makes them explicit, tangible.

What if in that moment, your words change and drift off into something unwritten? CHASE IT

In today's episode of playing with CSS, oh god what did I do oh god @CatoMinor3 😂
My CSS chops aren't good enough to make the ref section a 'pseudo-window' where I can quickly look at it by scrolling horizontally to the left hmm...gonna play around with the numbers a bit
This looks not bad actually...I can live with it

Just had some problems with main page width - now I'm stuck on always full if I'm willing to stick with this layout from now on hmm

Introducing a new project: Roam Dervish! A twist to the standard @RoamResearch coaching.

If you want to elevate your workflows, thinking, and converse with your notes on a deeper level with guidance, you've come to the right place!

There are two types of coaching shared below: Image
1 - General Roam Coaching

If you're in need of upgrading your workflow, this is for you 🚀

If you need workflow advancements, feature deep dives, Roam-related ideas fleshed out, this is it!

The goal is to develop your own unique Roam! More in this vid:
They stem from both my show (RoamFM) as well as the growing YouTube playlist + livestreams where I think out loud in public and show how I use the tool.

Here's an example of my workflows in action:

This series is now released! Enjoy my foray into creating a custom setup for your note-taking tool (for me it's @RoamResearch 😊) #roam

Let's go through what they cover:
The first is on your note-taking principles!

I explore the relationship between our information diet (what you take in intentionally/as a default), semantics and more for note-taking purposes, because what we perceive is what we take note of!
Next is taking the above and applying it to a digital context, in my case it's #roam !

How do you prepare your notes for recall? What does it mean to write notes primed for integration? Do you consider context-dependent insight (h/t @cortexfutura)?
