I think 4 comes closes. "Maintaining proportion" here could refer to the breadth and depth of the knowledge. These forces are somewhat antagonal so that we need to maintain a certain ratio to reach complete understanding. David Deutsch explains this to some extent in the first ~20 pages of the fabric of reality. > We need sometimes to step back and communicate the "meta". Not just the assumptions but also the definitions. Yes, good point. Do you think assumptions and definitions are something different? If yes, how are they different? The problem I solved with choosing a name for the blog was that I wanted to communicate a category of what will appear on this blog, which I think the less defined/fuzzy term solved well. I guess, I was assuming none of these. But the word scale as in scaling a business/company[0]. > PS : Remnote rocks ! Happy to hear that!!

Nah, I'm sure we can go real deep into how they relate to each other. Here I was just stressing their importance together, not their distinctiveness.
> I think 4 comes closes > I guess, I was assuming none of these
Well, you are underestimating the genius of that choice. Now that I thought about it, IMO, the 4 meanings could be seen as equally important but complementary perspectives into engaging with knowledge (I’m sick of the KM acronym). You are warned, I'm gonna steal it!
> the less defined/fuzzy term solved well.
Yeah, that is what I thought. Over (pre)defining things could lead to predefined (=limited) thinking. No always good for exploring wide topics.
> Maintaining proportion
Ok, so it is the proportion of
1- Breadth/depth for Knowledge
2- Gain/Losses for Business
3- flexibility/simplicity for data structure.?
I just added the third one, like, how you could scale Remnote, not just as a business but also as a data-structure? what if, in the case of data-structures, scaling is seen as maintaining proportion between flexibility and simplicity?
I will just say this : I have a general theory on how Outliner+DB combos have an excellent flexibility/simplicity ratio [1] (= top-notch at scaling) , So I hope the new table feature will be implemented deeply into remnote (and not as an afterthought)
Good luck!
