    There are many dimensions of intelligence:
    – Quick thinking
    – Holistic thinking
    – Creative thinking
    – Emotional intelligence
    “Knowing a lot” is also often considered intelligence.

    Thus, no one is universally smart, everyone has blind spots (incl., but not only w.r.t. knowledge).

    Hello,
    Does anyone know a good online private journal service/website which I can use to keep a record of my daily tasks and thoughts I want to preseve?
    It should have privacy options like encryption of journals content with a password or something.
    Thanks

    1. Tensions Rise Between Emacs and systemd
      from Sudo Satirical
      Just one week after its formal declaration of independence, the Republic of systemd has already met opposition from rival nation Emacs over territorial disputes. “Yeah about independenced. It turns out there’s already an Emacs keybinding for that”, said Ed Best, a spokesman for President-for-life Saint Ignutius. “Control x Meta d Meta i.
