Build an idea factory

You need to setup an idea factory, a setup that will effortlessly allow you to do the following:

• Record new ideas
• Build upon existing ideas
• Find contradiction

Here is what I do:

• I use emails as a note-taking apps. Related notes can be sent as replies to previous emails;
• I process emails using mu4e. It takes a few keystrokes to transform notes into a note;
• A space-repetition system prompts me randomly with existing notes everyday. I can choose to work on it, skip, or mark it as done;
• I use twitter to share specific notes;
• I regularly shitpost on Twitter to attract contradiction;
• Past a few thousand followers experts will reply to you on Twitter, use that magic power!
