I agree with the author, but the irony is that resurfacing is akin to UI friction. I resurface content in a journal because I have to flip pages to find the content I seek.
I've emulated some of the features the author wants in my obsidian using Dataview, but it's more the human ritual of review that accomplishes this for me.
I really want to know what everyone thinks about this… I've been teaching myself RoR to catch up, and now I'm a bit worried I need to be learning node.js or backbone.js.
I really really want to love pentadactyl, but the interfering with google app shortcuts is a major fall through. I just don't see the huge advantage, when most of my browser tasks already have shortcuts. I do like the /-search, but I already use Firefox's accessibility options to do it. I just don't know.
