| index | Alexandria: a knowledge garden |
Welcome! You've stumbled upon (or perhaps were pointed to) my public-facing Zettelkasten, or knowledge garden.
This is where I grow my ideas, and they are meticulously tagged to form the knowledge webs you see in the top right.
Currently this is a very new vault and the only contents are the trash notes which I took in the fall quarter of 2024. You can find them in the Fall 2024 directory, with ./Fall-2024/as-am-5/week-1.md, ./Fall-2024/as-am-5/week-2.md and ./Fall-2024/mes-45/week-1.md being the weekly notes.
If you're interested in the Nix package manager, I've also started maintaining a sort of "cheat sheet" or "tips and tricks" collection around variou quirks and features of the NixOS / nixpkgs ecosystem in assorted-nixos-hacks-and-tricks. Maybe you'll find something useful in there!
Feel free to take a look around and appreciate the scenery.
FAQ
How do you edit these notes?
The underlying notes are simply Markdown files. Precisely, they are Obsidian compatible Markdown files, which are tagged with metadata for use the Obsidian apps.
However, I do not use the Obsidian desktop app, for two reasons:
- Out of principle, Obsidian is free as in free beer, but not free as in free speech.
- (main reason) Vim is just too good to give up.
Therefore, I edit my notes using the free and open source obsidian.nvim plugin for Neovim.
I want to know cool technical details about the site!
Glad you asked, real person who is interested! This site is powered by Quartz

common LaTeX. Behold:
