- old

i don’t know what this page is lmao

- music things
- cs things
  - one main thing is i want to learn rust, maybe i’ll do some of these in rust
  - a better foss pomodoro timer; what is this bullshit
  - a better foss calendar, like obsidian, built on markdown/plaintext, or, if using a database, make some accessible way to export however you want
    - YO make it like, also show when you sleep yk like, how the fitbit does that ?!?!?
    - could other integrations be done too???!?!?!? like, showing when you run a pomodoro timer and shitr?!?!?!? or what places you are at what times???? i kinda wanna make open source software for fitbit now :sob:
    - WAIIIT BUT ALSO WHEN I WORK LIKE THE GOOGLE CALENDAR SHIGHSOIDJGOISJDGOIJSDOIFJSOIDJFOISJDFOIJWEFOIJWEGUJWEIUVHLINIULNWEEVIUNSDVIunsddasdffiuasdflidfbni n fd vuyeuifenviluewiu aw9489n3984n2938rn1r98hi
  - a search engine that works better than chatgpt and google
    - i don’t think chatgpt is really good for learning things, it’s much more valuable to parse information written by humans yourself, with your own brain. google/startpage doesnt always seem to have what i’m looking for readily available
    - this sounds dumb, but individual’s notes on digital gardens might be a good place that concatenates information that is not easily accessible via google. it’d at least be fun to figure out how search querying works
    - it also needs to be “lightweight”, preferably
      - able to run on a reasonably up-to-date computer
      - plaintext, only, so that an entire scraped database of knowledge is locally accessible without taking up an unreasonable amount of space. you could probably get like, a billion words with 5GiB is all im sayin.
