MakingHistory

I've decided to use the part of my vault I'm publishing through Obsidian Publish as my public website.

This is the fifth installment in my new Note-taking, Research, Writing handbook and series. I begin talking about sources and then say some things about arguments.

My first experience trying out Obsidian's website publishing tool. I'm pretty pleased with the results and I'll be using it, I think, to do my current big research project "with the garage door open".

Part 2 of my new series on Heuristics and Biases, influenced by recent books by Kahneman and Taleb.

This is the beginning of the first section of my new Note-taking, Research, Writing handbook and series. A lot of people have said "writing is thinking"; I believe thinking should be writing.

A quick demonstration of some of the things I do when making Reading Notes in Obsidian after processing documents using Zotero. Includes a brief tangent into my appreciation of Wikipedia and Hypothesis.

Introduction to a series I'm beginning to describe the heuristics discussed by Daniel Kahneman in his 2011 book Thinking, Fast and Slow (and also maybe touching on Taleb's Black Swans. Hopefully, installments will follow weekly covering the individual heuristics.

I used an Obsidian Vault in my Modern World History class this semester. It went very well! Here's a quick retrospective on that experiment.

I received an interesting letter from the executive editor at my publisher, which got me thinking again about publishing and looking at the experiences of some folks I know.

This is the first part of a new series I'm going to make, for my expanded update of "A Short Handbook for Writing Essays in the Humanities and Social Sciences", which I'm enhancing to include a lot more content on Note-taking. This will be a video series on YouTube and an audio series here. I'll add a new one weekly for about the next seven months.
