    I’m certain my wife is ADHD, undiagnosed.

    One thing she does is constantly buy storage containers of all shapes and sizes to organise her insanely disorganised world.

    All this has achieved is an insane amount of forgotten storage containers in the house and we have no idea what’s in any of them.

    And yes, she once attempted to buy a giant storage unit to store her storage containers.

    Whenever I see a ADHD meme I wonder if I have it because every single time it’s about something I do.

    i have an amazing solution for this, instead of screenshotting, i save it in txt (type it out) so that later when i have a self hosted LLM assistant, i can send all the shit ive compiled till now, and ask for movies/ songs/ or any article i saved and i can just do a semantic search through it. planning to make an open source tool for this but not too good at ML

      Oh, no need to wait for LLMs. Apache Solr should be really good at it. We used it at a company I was working at to build the most kickass search into our platform, that would actually find the stuff you were looking for…and that was back in 2018 :D

        ayy, that’s nice. LLMs are truely overkill just for semantic search though, didnt know there are other ways to achieve this. but we need intelligence too right. (somewhat)

          Don’t get me wrong though… throwing an LLM at it would be a lot easier and faster. Just a mind boggling use of resources for a task that could probably be done more efficiently :D

          Setting this up with Apache Solr and a suitable search frontend runs a high risk of becoming an abandoned side project itself^^

            Yeah LLM seems like the go to solution. And the best one. And talking about resources, we can use barely smart models which can generate coherent sentences, be it 0.5b-3b models offloaded to CPU inference only.

          Yes, your own intelligence that you integrate into the structure of your database and queries ;)

    Wow. It’s not just me? Is there a term for “fear of losing ideas”?

    I do create screenshots and screen cuts using PickPick and auto-save turned on - it is better than any AI bases self-survivalence tool

    I’m kinda weird in that I’m very text-oriented rather than visual-oriented, and this even results in a preference for keyboard over mouse, if I can’t hotkey a thing by god I will go get a tool that will let me hotkey it, etc. As such, I type everything up in a notes app that syncs between my phone and PC. Also, while I do sometimes bookmark things, I often forget that I have so most things I find again just by remembering what I searched for last time when I find it.

    This is part of why I self-host things. I have a lot of projects and project ideas, and Trello - while great for what it is - is slowly becoming enshittified, so I run a Planka instance instead. I also have a Nextcloud instance, Immich for photos, and a bunch of other things that help me stay organized. It took me a decade to figure out how to organize my homelab services and hardware, but now I have it set so all I need to do is check github/gitlab for updates and breaking changes for any particular service, log into any of my Dockge instances (all 4 of them are linked), and click the “update” button in the relevant stack. Yes, I know there are automations for that, too. One thing at a time.

    I have many notebooks. They range from pocket sized to 8" x 5" when they’re for ideas. I’ll occasionally use larger ones for other things, but I want to take down my thoughts quickly, and I really only want the essence of them, so I write in references to other things, images, and a short phrase to title it for context

    The nice thing is I’ve got almost 2 decades of notebooks like this - they’re scattered all through my things, basically by era.

    And because of that, I don’t need to fill or organize notebooks - every few years I’ll see one I like and make it the idea book

    I’ve gone through like 10x as many for work, but I just throw those away when they’re full
