Update wiki on various topics This update is too large, I made too many notes on stuff. Nonetheless, it is very nice to see progress. I've made note revisions on the following topics: - Learning - Writing - Various Linux-related stuff I've yet to start learning illustration but I'll be starting tomorrow for an update how do I keep in mind with those writings. There are still a lot of things to be processed from the backlog with yet more notes on learning but I keep having those perspectives whenever I practice so ehhh... Better have those than nothing? Furthermore, I've also updated the timestamp format. It is pretty simple to update all of the notes with a couple of `sed` calls. Aaaand, I've also changed the way how the assets stored with the folders only leaving it up for the generated files instead of enforcing it on every note. I create more visual aids and managing them is a pain for each note. This restructuring frees me of that burden.

One of the more popular independent Linux distros.
Memed as the elit3 hacker's distro with its manual installation process and rolling release model creating an impression that requires active maintenance.
* Philosophies
- simplicity and pragmatism
- packages are in bleeding edge with a continuous update releases
- packages are delivered from upstream as-is with little configuration and sporadic patches
* Ecosystem
- [[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman][pacman]], the simplest package manager with their community packages delivered pre-compiled binaries (see [[id:77f3ec38-9885-4f2b-8019-9042f0c6e4cb][Command line: pacman]])
- [[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_Build_System][Arch Build System]] (ABS) is a build system to compile into appropriate package formats for pacman
- creating packages requires writing [[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD][PKGBUILD]] for ABS
