note-taking is economic for conveying thought i guess but you can 100% overdo it

a converse to the PKM ideal of "maximum viable recursive indexicality, per fundamental unit":
only the whitespace determines intrinsic, intra-note/intra-concept navigation
atomization brute-forces whitespace and distance between ideas/concepts/models where there isn't naturally any, for the sake of maximizing the degrees of freedom by which the user navigates the knowledge base
sequences and radial branches of notes are intrinsically related. all sequences can be read as radial branches of a larger/prime idea. all radial branches can be read in a linear, unidirectional sequence.

talking to myself aloud and i wonder if atomization actually IS the ultimate solution--should we perfectly atomize our individual notes? i feel like we need some "sweetner" and light context around each atomized context, so that it's understandable by itself. 🧵
the organizational idea of "atomization by dispersion" stands on the implicit notion that we *can* perfectly atomize ideas, into discrete containers of notes. in perfect atomization, context does not exist in a note; context exists outside a note, in the linked notes around it.

@logseq, you've stolen my heart (well, maybe neurons). a thread... 🧵
i was checking my inbox one day and it turns out i had gotten access to mem.ai after signing up and getting on their waitlist. so i thought, okay, let's check this out, i'm eager for a new toy.
