What does pullable/usable mean to you in this context? What other uses are your notes called upon to fill?

*squints* That is not a printer 👀

This is a delightfully unhinged desk setup. Do you actually use the printer?

Logseq also enforces a folder structure upon you. It doesn't play nice with others at all.

I don't use either, but what I do use is much more similar to Obsidian. I really don't like the way Logseq formats its "markdown" notes. Headers in list items is incompatible with basically everything. I also don't like how editing a line drops you into completely unformatted raw markdown.

v0.11.0-alpha.3 + Added the ability to customize keyboard shortcuts throughout Tangent. + Added support for checked & enabled status for note formatting commands. + Added tooltips for files in the sidebar. - Fixed a crash that could occur at startup. Added logging to gain more information. - Fixed null reference errors that occurred when attempting to embed a remote PDF. - Fixed an issue where image preview tooltips did not show the image.

Tangent’s shortcuts customization interface.

Because the studio that is making it is owned by Sony.

It fits the themes of the wolverine comics. They’re usually very violent.

Companies keep releasing right eye only devices. My right eye sucks. It’s like it sees the word in SD while my left eye sees in 4k.

Devices like this are useless to me from the jump.

The loss of "compact mode" in Safari in MacOS 26 is a tragedy. The new design gobbles vertical space and just doesn't look great.

I'm probably going to switch completely to Zen if this isn't eventually rectified.

Now that a stable release of @tangentnotes.bsky.social is out and I'm going to a party, I'm sure a really nasty bug is going to jump out of the woodwork.

That's how it works, right?

I've been using my thumb to operate my macbook's trackpad more and more while typing. The "click anywhere" nature of the surface makes it actually possible, even comfortable!

vO.10.0-alpha.1 + Added support for Collapsing Sections. Headers, lists, code, math, and front matter can all be collapsed. Collapsed state is kept persistent between sessions. + Added an option to automatically collapse Front Matter. + Added support for restoring selection & scroll position in notes between sessions. - Fixed an issue where tooltips could persist past when their originating element was destroyed.

Tangent v0.10.0-alpha.1 is now out! Selection collapsing is here!

Re: TX floods:

"This is rumor control. These are the facts." - Aliens 3

The budget cuts to NOAA/NWS, while stupid, did not cause this tragedy. The system worked. I live in the general area. My phone has been going off all weekend.

The problem: the Kerrville flood happened in 20 minutes, at night.

Uh-oh, S3 egress is starting to catch up with me.

@beccafarsace.bsky.social if you're cruising past Lion's Park on your crazy bike trip, let me know and I'll get you some water and a snack :P. Cool project!

Wildly terrible take by @gruber.foo regarding “ChatGPT reefer madness.” The story provided proves how easily turned to junk LLMs are. OpenAI is on the hook for the drivel their tools produce.

Playing with my Apple Vision Pro again to get the beta on it. It's been _months_ since I put it on, and I'm still totally struck by how damned cool this thing is.

I'm typing this on my Mac _through passthrough_. I can see better in the AVP than without my glasses on. It's just cool.

Nothing like releasing something in the morning to make you fixated to your phone all day…

Gimme the dopamine! Gimme!

There are lots of publishing options out there! From roll-your-own-blog generators to Wordpress!

Totally. Interlinking is so much more organic and lets me spend time thinking instead of organizing.

That's a _really_ great idea. Plain-text link land already uses `#` for headers—maybe `@` for versions? e.g. `[[MyNote@<version-hash>]]`

Given that notes usually aren't changed _that_ often, you could probably also get away with a day timestamp instead of a hash.

I did this _for years_ before I got frustrated enough to start developing something just for me. Part of that journey was figuring out that I didn't need to solve all of my needs with one tool. Project management & notes aren't the same thing, and they don't need to be in the same app.

People come at the #pkm space like this all the time. Many are doing so with a vague sense of unease or dissatisfaction about how they're managing their notes. They shop around for different paradigms hoping to find something that sticks. Free-form tools can feel like a black hole from that mindset.

v0.9.0-beta.5 + Added description extraction for preview of Wikipedia links. + Added an option to control whether finished Todos are crossed out. + Updated Electron to v35.4.0; updated many other dependencies as well. - Fixed an issue where external links had a blank tooltip. - Fixed an issue where links with preview errors could show two different tooltips at once.

Tangent v0.9.0-beta.5 is out! Wikipedia previews now have actual descriptions in them, and a user request for disabling crossing out finished Todos!

It's not the most ergonomic of solutions. Git can be pretty esoteric to non-developers. I know there are plugins for Obsidian that try to address this somewhat. I also have some vague intention of adding git integration to Tangent, but that's a long way off.
