Hey Beehaw!

I've recently received a copy of Physically Based Rendering 4th edition. I've been going through the book slowly, but have had a hard time retaining information. I used to use markdown to take extensive notes, but found that I would end up copying too much useless information. Also, writing latex notes for math is painfully slow.

I was wondering what note taking methodologies you all use. I think my ideal note taking method would fulfill three criteria:

1. Minimal note-taking overhead: Doesn't take too much time to create notes. (Esp for complex math expressions)
2. Easy to reference: The notes should be brief and easy to comprehend at a glance. They should also be searchable.
3. Easy to store: Minimal physical presence. I tend to lose papers all the time.

Hello! I've been a hobbyist programmer for a couple years, and now I want to turn this hobby into my day job. I find Android a fascinating platform so I've started my learning path. Google search, pointed me to google developer codelabs, and they pretty fun!

However, I'm getting a little stuck, and am looking for a community of android developers. I'm avoiding Twitter and Reddit at all costs, but a lot of resources have pointed me there, any other places I should check out, or learning resources other then Google themselves? For context, I'm learning Jetpack compose with Kotlin and Android Studio.

From a technical and legal standpoint, ignoring ethics and dignity, is there anything preventing us from scripting a scraper that recreates reddit posts in a lemmy instance? Like maybe top 100 posts of the top 50 subreddits, without comments. I think it would help convince people to join, since the major argument for sticking with reddit is that it has more content. Thoughts?
