    1. I dislike the separation of Trending and Newest. This is one of the main reasons for false negatives as new articles don’t receive many (if any) views. I’m thinking about randomly interspersing new articles in the trending feed to give them the potential of getting their first few votes. This (as ever) has an effect on quality, so has to be done with care.

      Introducing some randomness for new unranked articles is an interesting and likely useful tactic.

    1. Inline dice rolling for Obsidian

      Might be useful for opening up random notes as well.

    1. Feature Idea: Chaos Monkey for PKM

      This idea is a bit on the extreme side, but it does suggest that having a multi-card comparison view in a PKM system would be useful.

      Drawing on Raymond Llull's combitorial memory system from the 12th century and a bit of Herman Ebbinghaus' spaced repetition (though this is also seen in earlier non-literate cultures), one could present two (or more) random atomic notes together as a way of juxtaposing disparate ideas from one's notes.

      The spaced repetition of the cards would be helpful for one's long term memory of the ideas, but it could also have the secondary effect of nudging one to potentially find links or connections between the two ideas and help to spur creativity for the generation of new hybrid ideas or connection to other current ideas based on a person's changed context.

      I've thought about this in the past (most likely while reading Frances Yates' Art of Memory), but don't think I've bothered to write it down (or it's hiding in untranscribed marginalia).
