Note
Permanent notes must stand alone
Ada Ng
A permanent note should still make sense in five years, without the book, the course, or the mood that produced it.
One idea. One title that is a claim, not a topic. At least one link to another claim.
| Kind | Public? | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Fleeting | Never | A capture |
| Literature | Rarely | One paper, in your words |
| Permanent | Yes, once it stands | One claim |
| Map of content | Yes | A trailhead, not an argument |
If you cannot link it, it is still a fleeting note. Examples that pass the test in this vault: Attention is a routing function, The residual stream is the state.
