I didn't have a name for it, but I evolved to this same exact system myself. I use HeyNote [0] for mine. [0] https://heynote.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

This one is basically my daily driver for similar tasks: https://app.heynote.com/ (full app at https://heynote.com/). And it seems to work almost out-of-box for your first two examples, once you switch the buffer from "Plain-text" into "Math" mode. It also supports switching between different buffers and some kind of local storage. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

This is lovely. I maintain a dev log at work where I manually time-stamp entries section wise, but many times I’m doing it after the fact. Ability to edit the time stamps and then search based on it would make this super powered. Actually, I would love to combine this with Heynote[0], have you considered it?

Finally, using Google Apps Script, I email myself a weekly summary of tracker/Todoist tasks completed with a comparison versus the previous week. It also contains a link to the graph that is published on the web. I also send this to Drafts using the mail drop feature. Source: almost 2 years ago

When I want to take notes on something I'm listening to, like a book quote or a thought I have while listening, I stop and make a note right then. Because I don't know if the next paragraph is going to suck me in more and make me forget whatever I wanted to note. I have a few ways to do this. I often take a voice recorder with me in the car, so if I have interesting ideas while driving I can just push a button,... Source: almost 2 years ago
