Пишем плагины для Obsidian

habr.com/ru/articles/861230

Статьи предназначены для максимально легкого вкатывания в плагинописание для Obsidian.
Официально документация Obsidian настоятельно рекомендует использовать TypeScript и npm и использует только такой подход в своем GitHub с примерами. Я же в свою очередь утверждаю, что если вы хотите просто сесть и написать малюсенький плагин, у вас нет необходимости даже в этом стеке.

Enlightenmentware

unix is user-friendly—it’s just choosy about who its friends are.

I even have it [Windows] installed on my gaming pc so that I can buy games I never play.

It is easy to shoot your foot off with git, but also easy to revert to a previous foot and merge it with your current leg.

Personal Goals Have to Happen Now

www.raptitude.com/2023/11/personal-goals-have-to-happen-now

Personal goals are generally expected to happen later.
The reason it’s hard to get going on personal goals is that you’re already using all of your time. No matter who you are, you’re already using all 24 hours, every day, for something. Because this will always be true, goals that happen at all must happen now, while you still don’t yet have time.
Basically, you learn to work in small, uniform parcels of time. They’re short, timer-bound, and unwaveringly focused on a particular outcome. Most importantly, they can fit into real life, as it already is.
