# Curse of Knowledge
|
||||
|
||||
The **curse of knowledge** is a cognitive bias
|
||||
which impairs the ability of one with specialized knowledge
|
||||
to consider the perspective of one without it.

# Drinking One's Own Kool-Aid
|
||||
|
||||
> "Don't drink your own Kool-Aid"
|
||||
|
||||
**Drinking one's own Kool-Aid** is a form of systemic self-delusion
|
||||
whereby an individual convinces themself
|
||||
|
||||
Contrast with [drinking _the_ Kool-Aid](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_the_Kool-Aid)
|
||||
which generally connotates acceptance
|
||||
of erroneous worldviews spread by _others_.

# _Einstellung_ Effect
|
||||
|
||||
The [_Einstellung_ effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstellung_effect)
|
||||
is the tendency to use a familiar tool to solve a new problem
|
||||
even when another tool may be superior for the purpose.

> \[It\]is the negative effect of previous experience when solving new problems.

## "Obsidian for Learning Part II: Process"
|
||||
|
||||
["Obsidian for Learning Part II: Process" - No Boilerplate](https://youtu.be/Tyw6quANpiY)
|
||||
|
||||
No Boilerplate first got me into [[obsidian]]
|
||||
so to see them endorse such strange patterns without qualification is frustrating.
|
||||
I suspect that Tris is a victim of [[drinking-ones-own-kool-aid]].
|
||||
|
||||
***
|
||||
|
||||
Clearly we have different priorities for our vaults,
|
||||
but I tend to think mine are more consistent.
|
||||
|
||||
***
|
||||
|
||||
I couldn't trade git version control
|
||||
for the convenience of Obsidian Sync on mobile.
|
||||
The timeline of my understanding
|
||||
is just as important as the result.
|
||||
|
||||
***
|
||||
|
||||
Tris has repeated ~~somewhere~~
|
||||
a piece of advice for Obsidian [[personal-knowledge-management]]
|
||||
that I think ought to be nonnegotiable.
|
||||
|
||||
> You get one vault. Figure it out.
|
||||
|
||||
***
|
||||
|
||||
PKM, as I understand it, is in service of [[synthesis]],
|
||||
that if you have access to your knowledge
|
||||
without the effort and problems of recall,
|
||||
your processing power can be spent making connections.
|
||||
|
||||
***
|
||||
|
||||
The problem with titled notes
|
||||
is that titles are a barrier to writing
|
||||
that serve no purpose.

These are not summaries,
|
||||
this is quippy bullshit.
|
||||
If it seems like this would be a good way to organize ideas
|
||||
you are vastly underestimating the number of ideas you have.
|
||||
At scale you won't be able to distinguish between
|
||||
"Concise explanations accelerate progress"
|
||||
and "Accelerating progress explanations",
|
||||
and if titles-as-filenames doesn't aid organization
|
||||
you might as well use timestamps, which do.
|
||||
|
||||
***
|
||||
|
||||
Still I think the best way to start Obsidian
|
||||
is to install it with no expectations or introduction
|
||||
then write everything in unique notes with the core plugin.

## Gell-Man Amnesia Effect
|
||||
|
||||
The [Gell-Mann amnesia effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Crichton#%22Gell-Mann_amnesia_effect%22)
|
||||
may explain my tendency to rave about literature on other disciplines.
|
||||
I am a bitter detractor of Mike Holt,
|
||||
(who may be the only thing approaching a published researcher in our shared fields[^1])
|
||||
but I'm quick to ignore typos and other presentation issues
|
||||
which may be indicative of low rigor
|
||||
in books and articles for adjacent fields.
|
||||
|
||||
[^1]: Those being the electrical trade (as practiced by electricians)
|
||||
and electrical estimating.

|

I used to think that with a good enough explanation
|
||||
people could be disabused of their flawed understandings.
|
||||
Increasingly I feel that well reasoned logic
|
||||
may be the smallest part of why opinions change,
|
||||
that it's much more a case of right place, right time.
