Vimwiki was the cleanest and easiest non-intrusive thing I could do and it still required me to spend time organizing a self-made directory which even then became unmanagable

you guys better not sell out to tencent or google im going to be pissed

lmao

plan is for dendron to have a working business model. see here: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/d892da5f-3667-4bfe-a8ba-e5ea3da4eb72.html also, regardless of what happens, our core principles include ownership and portability so feel free to call us out if you see something that goes against this: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/7fcebd7d-6411-4c9d-8baf-65629dc018a1.html

Very nice you guys, very nice. Did you use to work at Amazon, Kevin?

yep. 5 years

That's awesome, I also work at Amazon.

In the fulfillment center.

Just kidding it's not bad at all, in fact it's really helped me transition back to civilian life. They catch a lot of flak but it's not nearly as bad as the internet makes it out to be.

got, i was a little worried with the initial pic 😅

yeah, i worked mostly in AWS so not much experience on the retail side

@User how dendron was born? Did you basically created over the years and just open sourced last year?

born from my own system for note-taking which i've been iterating on over the years. you can see the longer writeup here: https://www.kevinslin.com/notes/e1455752-b052-4212-ac6e-cc054659f2bb.html

I assumed AWS, would you recommend a career there?

I loved my time there but I would say its highly dependent on your team. Every team is different so your experience will vary considerably depending on what org you land in.

Awesome stuff, I hear that a lot about the big tech companies. Someone told me that the teams at these places are like working at an entirely different company

that is accurate 🙂

Just a heads up: Saturday (today) and Tuesday (a few days from now) are YC demo days. 60 seconds to talk about Dendron! 🙃

YC demo days?

yep, that's the one. dendron is part of the yc w21 batch

Oh awesome

Good luck!

I don't think demoday presentations are streamed publicly are they?

thanks 🙂 no, unfortunately not. I think techcrunch or will do an article with blurbs about all the companies next week after its all wrapped up

Ooh good luck.

Best wishes for demo day!!

I wish ... would be cool to see an old archive of demoday presentations from the past ... just to see how they ended up.

Well... some of them are available:

when it has been far too long...

A heads up vscode.dendron.refactorhierarchy might cause problems currently. Case is open at https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/567. I recommend vscode.FindandReplaceAll [Ctrl-Shift-H] to refactor hierarchies for now.
