Tags

These tags are presented in an associative order.

#destiny

#destiny describes the permanency of an item. It does not necessarily reflect its current tags#status.

#destiny/fleeting

The content of an item tagged #destiny/fleeting will ultimately be absorbed into another note and the file deleted.

These notes may deviate from standard formatting.

#destiny/permanent

Notes tagged #destiny/permanent are intended for long-term use.

They are expected to reflect standard formatting and should be heavily tagged and linked.

#status

#status reflects the remaining work necessary to bring an item to the standard of its tags#destiny.

#status/incomplete

Beyond intent, the note offers little to go on.

#status/draft

The main content of the note is present, but:

  • text may need to be reflowed
  • links may need to be added
  • citations may be necessary

#status/complete

The text flows well, the note is sufficiently tagged and linked, and citations are included as appropriate

#topic

Notes can and usually will have multiple topic tags.

#topic/meta

Relating to the structure or intent of this notebook.

#topic/software

Relating to specific software written by others, or hypothetical software functionality I've conceived.

The latter I generally relegate to tags#destiny/fleeting, to be absorbed into the specifications of the relevant project when the idea is sufficiently developed.

#topic/automation

On the subject of lightweight scripts that could reduce redundancy in processes, without requiring fundamental change.

#topic/construction

Relating to the construction industry including trade methods as well as business concerns.

#topic/construction/electrical

Relating to electrical installation, including:

  • code
  • material

#topic/estimating

Relating to the field of cost estimation, as understood in construction-estimating as well as other industries.

This topic also includes concepts that may be useful to estimation, but that aren't widely understood to be.

#topic/math

#topic/risk

Relating to mathematical and abstract concepts of risk.

#topic/ergonomics/organizational

On the subject of optimal-patterns for processes of varying importance.

#topic/ambiguity

#topic/transparency

#topic/hobbies

#topic/other

Notes relating to subjects not relevant to this notebook's supertopics, but that I include for the convenience of editing them in Obsidian. Some standouts include:

#occupational

Items tagged #occupational include information and instructions relevant to my current occupation that may not reflect construction-estimating practice in the wider industry.

[!info] This tag is largely separate from the wider vault. I would probably move them to their own repository were it not for the complexity of preserving the version history of both.

#occupational/takeoff

Important

Notes tagged #occupational/takeoff/* include information as understood by PDI, which is not necessarily consistent with (and often sharply deviates from) wider industry understanding.

#type

#type/task

%% TODO %%

#type/guide

Items of #type/guide give instructions to complete a specific process.

#type/encyclopedia

Items of #type/encyclopedia are thorough, use exact language, and include citations.

They describe concepts as they are, not as they should be.

#type/encyclopedia-entry

Items of #type/encyclopedia-entry are children of a #type/encyclopedia. The parent may or may not yet exist.

#type/philosophy

Items of #type/philosophy are highly opinionated. They describe concepts as I believe them to be.

They are always? of tags#authorship/original.

#type/anecdote

%% TODO %%

#type/minutes

[!info] I'm unsatisfied with the name of this tag. It is subject to change.

%% TODO %%

#type/media

Items of #type/media are entire works, usually reference material like code books, but could also be my own standalone pieces.

#type/media-commentary

Items of #type/media-commentary are note length critiques of specific media.

%% TODO %%

#authorship

#authorship reflects my claim to the content of an item in its current state.

#authorship/original

Items of #authorship/original are primarily my own work. Content from other sources is properly cited.

#authorship/other

[!info] I'm unsatisfied with the name of this tag. It is subject to change.

Items of #authorship/other are not my own work. They may be of one source or a collection of several without significant commentary.

#authorship/other-for-now

Items of #authorship/other-for-now will eventually be #authorship/original, but that do not yet include original work.

They are always of tags#status/not-started.
