Re:Introduction to the Zettelkasten Method on Thursday October 29, 2020 @06:32AM (#24928976)
So there does seem to be a recent Hype-train around improved note taking and Zettelkasten in particular.

I would 100% echo the timesink/tarpit comments insofar as unless you have a specific learning or knowledge management goal devoting time to this can be a fun procrastination game.

Many of the sources rate the book "How to Take Smart Notes" by Sönke Ahrens as a starting point (ISBN10 1542866502 , ISBN13 9781542866507)

There are a plethora of youtube channels and Productivity websites to be found so YMMV, I liked:

Bryan Jenks' - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5fd4SsfvECy0zzf8Cyo2...

Justin (Effective Remote work )- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkzyo69rqBoBJUyQ9jo53Bw/vid...

Project is here: https://github.com/gamozolabs/chocolate_milk

I found it pretty fun and educational to watch as a Rust N00b.

I’m trying to understand the alternative - let contagion continue unchecked and overwhelm medical services?
That was uncomfortable watching - having been responsible for data centers in a past life my nightmares were haunted by those with no, or worse, little knowledge re-patching critical infrastructure.

On the subject of Video Synths - Teenage Engineering have a preview of their OP-Z:

Based on their previous offerings I am very excited to see how this turns out (and a little worried for my bank balance)
