Comment on I need a map...
verw@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks agoI STRONGLY agree with this. My notes have saved my ass many times! Even document the little commands you feel dumb for forgetting over and over. Just get over yourself and write them down; it’s not any worse than googling for and opening that same stackoveflow answer for the nth time lol
I simply kept my notes in markdown files for a while and eventually turned those into a self-hosted wiki using Material for MkDocs. It’s really convenient being able to access the notes from a webpage on any device on my network.
Yup! On my dashboard, I have a small notepad where I keep all those ‘commands you feel dumb for forgetting .’ It does go on for a bit, and yes they are basic commands, but my memory is shit, so poke fun if you must. It works for me.

I should do that because I always type
pwgen 1 32first and then
pwgen 32 1… or wait, was it the other way around?
Exactly…so I made a manual Olive Tin I guess.

Ah, neat idea!
Also, good to run into you again! I didn’t realize you were the person who’d posted the JSON question until I saw multiple replies from you in my notifications, haha.
Hey Hey Hey! There you are again. Good to see ya. Yes, I’m the guy, in well over his head, with the JSON weather project, and there have been a lot of kind and patient people holding my hand and trying to spoon feed the village idiot. LOL I’m very grateful tho.
It works for me like I said. Kind of a manual Olive Tin, before I even heard of Olive Tin. Some might find it rather silly, but my mind is shit at remembering. If it weren’t for copious amounts of notes and crutches all over the place, I’d be lost in the weeds.
