Specifically about consuming information and note-taking. It is just a simple realization about those things. Quite simple but I think it is a good important reminder for my future self here.

Found some inconsistent titles?
|
|
Improper metadata?
|
|
Incorrect datetime format?
|
|
Just correct them as you stumble upon them.

A similar dilemma I have yesterday is trying to format the metadata my Org mode files and sorting them alphabetically.
|
|
I've written a script and as I'm not experienced in text processing, I spent most of my time reading up documentation on the tools.
|
|
I did learned something with the tools but I've realized it's a big waste of time especially if my notes have grown.
|
|
If I found another hip and new note-taking method and it doesn't conform to the new ideal notes in my mind, then I should relax and try it out.
|
|
If it's good and I integrated it, I'll simply link it to my old notes.
|
|
|
|
My personal notes, no matter how poorly written or unmaintained, are still valuable.
|
|
So if you have tendencies like this, just relax and correct them. :)
|
|
Trashing notes should be taken as a last resort if you're sure it is not relevant to you in the present and in the near future (see [[file:2021-04-07-18-53-58.org][Future-proofing your notes is only worth if the future is relevant]]).
