Checking the guidelines before I schedule my certification exam.
The online test proctoring rules are – if I may use a technical term from the ADHD / neurodiverse knowledge domain – bullshit.

Things like “no mumbling or speaking out loud” which ok fine usually that’s me quiet in the corner but if I’m thinking I can’t make promises about what noises my mouth meat might make.

and “no notes or study aids” like okay if you insist but that’s how I keep my brain on track I hope you’re ready for my 90 minute essay on no not networking technology how about stylistic variances of 20th century fantasy illustration

“nothing unrelated to the exam on your desk” so no stims i guess i better pull out my extra clicky keyboard for this so i can fidget a little

“facial recognition software may be used” okay that’s not a neurodiverse thing that’s just a fuck you to any tester in general mustn’t let anyone feel left out i guess

I should maybe have fewer venvs. A global plus one for each significant project is fine.
One for every idea has been perhaps a bit much.

I want to keep work and life stuff notes separate, but I keep crossing the streams.
Working on muscle memory to start vimwiki with <Leader>ws, opening a wiki select, rather than going straight to the default wiki.

I’ve tried doing multi-vault in Obsidian etc but for some reason two app windows may as well be two apps – kinda true since each is managed separately – and one becomes the always open default.
Maybe less friction with a vimwiki context shift, but we’ll see.
