any technology choice can be used to be used to create busy work, for example I spent a lot of time at my old job working on a documentation system for a quality management system (ISO 9001). Did it matter almost no one ever used it? No because it just had to exist for auditing purposes. Originally this was all implemented in a Excel spreadsheet and it worked. Of course if the tool works, then why worry about which one you use?
I see these posts complaining about these various software tools and I just wonder how much we're trading complexity around for creating busy work by choosing new tools. There's an adage about SAAS startups somewhere out there related to glorified spreadsheets. See the classic XKCD comic - https://xkcd.com/1205/ The advantage of course with TiddlyWiki is everything is really just plain text. So you don't have to worry about navigating these complicated WYSIWYG apps that come up every now and then. - Mark On Sunday, May 3, 2020 at 6:05:47 AM UTC-7, Diego Mesa wrote: > > Hello all, > > I came across this article on HN today and found the comments to be an > interesting look into a "competitor".
