Page Categories
This site is organized using 7 major categories, each corresponding with a #tag. All the pages here will always be tagged with ONLY ONE category, but it may also have other tags.
| Category | Description |
|---|---|
| concept | Think of these like index cards. Quick-hit definitions that offer context without breaking flow. These are intentionally lightweight and high-level. |
| study | Notes that I’m taking while studying or researching. All of my Coursera notes would be under this category. These are more detailed notes. |
| lab | Things I document while I’m experimenting and building personal projects. These notes are informational but haven’t been finalized or polished. May be hard to read. |
| thought | A personal journal entry where I discuss thoughts, opinions, and questions I may have about a variety of relevant topics. |
| reference | Cheatsheets, links, books, resources, etc. |
| guide | A guide/tutorial I created for public consumption. These are usually finalized versions of notes in the “Lab” category that I polished for public use. |
| meta | Notes about this site/PKM concepts in general. Updates, goals, decisions, etc. |
These tags will never overlap with each other. They are distinct.

Need to Update
TODO: I’m still exploring how to surface personal projects or noteworthy news. I may eventually introduce a new
#signalcategory for curated external content. For projects, my current thinking is to treat them as multi-note hubs that cut across existing categories like#labor#guide.
🚀 Suggested Starting Points
Motivation/Purpose
What was the motivation behind creating this space? Truthfully, I’ve realized with age that I don’t really like playing the optics game when it comes to my career, as it doesn’t really motivate me or give me energy. But unfortunately, you can’t elect to sit on the sidelines and still be a great player, and I fully understand and respect that.
With all that in mind, my intention was to create a low-friction method of sharing my growth/learning process online that felt aligned with my goals and methods, but still allowed me to signal to potential employers. It’s basically my version of posting on LinkedIn.
But I’ve started having a lot of fun creating a “knowledge base” for the layman when it comes to AI education. And it somehow motivates me to continue my learning and experimentation, even though I know no one is realistically reading this. Something about the potential for some to read if they wanted to keeps me “in line.”
Also, it’s becoming pretty fun and addicting making all the different connections between notes using the wiki-links. I feel this notebook will actually be a useful resource, not only for myself but for other learners, if I keep updating it.
