In Praise of Print: Reading Is Essential in an Era of Epistemological Collapse

I exclusively use fountain pens and higher quality wirebound notebooks and notepads.

I number the notebook, and write the start date at first page. Then I number the pages as I go, and date every page.

When the notebook finishes, I remove the binding, scan it at 600DPI, store it as a PDF.

I'll be training a local Tesseract installation with my hand writing one day, but I'm not there. However, these notebooks saved the day more than once in their current form.

I'm using smart devices since Palm/Handspring era. Nothing can replace the paper for me, and I don't want to change my ways from now on. So this is the method I use for quite some time.
