Forth really changed the way I think. I now take notes in a Forth-like way. Very underexplored.

Could you say more about what it means to "take notes in a Forth-like way"?
Not sure what it means

carrot soup cookies bread butter cart grocery todo

would be one way :-)

I'd love to see your notes as a sample, please :).
I think he might mean:

1. Push items onto a stack.

2. Create new stacks (words) for categories of items.

FWIW, I do the same, and use a tool (now using almost exclusively the GUI tool I include in the github repo) to do it.

This is the explanation of the tree-of-stacks method that I am using: https://github.com/lelanthran/frame/blob/master/docs/FrameIn...

(yes yes, it's a slideshow, but until I can make a video, this is a better medium for visualising how it works).
