I long ago stopped reading books on note-taking.

They were always too vague and boring, full of platitudes that had little to do with the world outside academia.

I especially avoided “how-to” style books on the subject.

They would often list dozens of tips and tricks that had little to do with each other. There was never an overarching system for turning notes into concrete results.

But recently I picked up How To Take Smart Notes (affiliate link) by Sönke Ahrens. Ahrens is a Lecturer in Philosophy of Education at the University of Duisburg-Essen and also coaches students, academics, and professionals with a focus on time management, decision-making, and personal growth.

This article contains the flow-charts of many common programming language constructs that involve distinct combinations of gotos. The goto (or jump) is a basic building block of control flow, therefore most control flow constructs can be modelled using it.

At Axel Springer, Europe’s largest digital publishing house, we own a lot of news articles from various media outlets such as Welt, Bild, Business Insider and many more. Arguably, the most important part of a news article is its title, and it is not surprising that journalists tend to spend a fair amount of their time to come up with a good one. For this reason, it was an interesting research question for us at Axel Springer AI whether we could create an NLP model that generates quality headlines from Welt news articles (see Figure 1). This could, for example, serve our journalists as inspiration for creating SEO titles, which our journalists often don’t have time for (in fact we’re working together with our colleagues from SPRING and AWS on creating a SEO title generator).

None of the existing display configuration tools does what I think is "the right thing".

• Don't start from a stored config, use xrandr to read the systems' current state
• Allow creating "profiles" that will get applied smartly (not there yet)
• Generate a xrandr invocation to reflect the desired configuration
• Allow per-monitor scaling
• Allow arbitrary monitor positioning
• Implement "scale everything so all the pixels are the same size"
