a whole lot of words about one way we've been writing a whole lot of words
and how doing so has fundamentally altered our relationship with the things we know
and the things we didn't realize we still knew

one of the things with personal knowledge management is the recommendation for atomic notes rather than monoliths
the concept each note should be as small as it should be while still being complete, with some recommendations recommending no more than one scroll deep, or a rule of thumb like "if it has a H5, then it's time to split it out"

even 2+ years into doing this, i'm never quite how sure to face it, particularly for older notes that were created as monoliths or lists

for example, with this list of vr avatar bases, i could split it out to

name is a base by Creator. It was used as Friend's main avatar until they switched to New Base. A demo is available from external link. It can be purchased from external link.

but also that feels like overkill for a lot of stuff i probably will never purchase, though i suppose it might make recommendations easier
