Recalling and reusing your past work and knowledge in novel contexts is a superpower. In order to do this with that much information, compression into core takeaways and handles is imperative.

I've learned an insane amount in my last couple years of consulting. 11 products in the last year alone. I would hate to lose that 10 years later and have my insights and questions rely on memory because I didn't take the time to consolidate my notes. roamresearch.com/#/app/Rob-Hais

My personal definition of learning: You know a thing when you can recall and apply it in an appropriate context. But this is simpler: S understands knowledge K if S uses K whenever appropriate. - J. Moore and A. Newell

> Improves information density for communication b/w selves and others. SO TRUE. One friend I've been working with for 15+ years, we have a rich set of named shared concepts. We can cover an _insane_ amount of ground in just 30 minutes.
