EDIT: Any HN mods/devs reading this -- there seems to be a display bug for comment creation time? On edit it says 20hrs (accurate), whereas viewing the comments otherwise shows that it was posted an hour ago. Not sure what's going on
- Really? I feel exactly the opposite, that as a species we are extremely primitive in that regard. We underinvest into social "technology." Systems of collaboration and alignment aren't widespread, and research into it isn't taken seriously
Don't get me wrong, what we have is working (so far? Political happenings around the world don't inspire confidence)

Great, then here's an opportunity for you to improve: I need you to understand that any social system designed by humans will be flawed and miss a bunch of edge cases. Your intentions do not matter. Doing this will fuck up somebody's life.
- 1) For sites I come back to for reference or frequent utility, I use my Chrome bookmarks bar heavily. I have it synced to my Google account in the cloud, and segmented across different Chrome profiles (work email account for work things, personal for personal things, etc).
- Bookmarks to tools I access really frequently (like AWS dashboard) are top-level, and I remove the "Name" of the bookmark so it appears as just an icon in the bookmarks bar. There's a few of these quick-access icons for any given Chrome Profile setup that I have. For work I have Okta, AWS, and a work Wiki via Notion. For personal I have Youtube, email, my seedbox, and Plex.
- Everything else is split into folders for interests, projects, teams at work, etc.
- For things like recipes and articles I will back them up via Waybackmachine and archive.ph and bookmark that instead of the original site
2) For a form of digital scrapbooking for my various interests, of things that are not quite websites (images, videos, quotes, scraps) I use are.na heavily. I want to stress that this is scrapbooking and not a "notes system" a la Obsidian or Notion.
- >I've been dipping my toes into the JS ecosystem, and I keep bumping into the fact that using mentally cheap signals of quality (such as stars or DL counts) almost never indicates the quality of the thing itself. Winners seem to be randomly chosen, almost! The only way to assess is to read the code and try integrating it in.
I wish morep people understood the "Kardashian effect" as I like to call it -- the most popular thing is only most popular because it was already popular. I think in almost everything in my life and in every domain, #2 or #3 is better-suited (for my preferences and needs).
A year or two ago on HN I read a short blog post about omitting the word "best" from internet searches and being more specific in your criteria (e.g. "car with best resale value" instead of "best car"), and it has made my life and way of thinking a lot better
