Notes Compound, Blogs Compile: When I Update a Note vs. Publish a Post
↗
Simon Späti outlines a workflow where personal notes compound over time in a digital system before being compiled into static, time-stamped blog posts.
For engineers and technical writers, this approach separates ongoing knowledge accumulation from finalized documentation, preventing the constant maintenance burden of updating old articles. It allows a personal knowledge base to act as a living repository while published posts serve as historical snapshots.

Notes are living documents that compound knowledge over time through continuous updates.
Blog posts are compiled artifacts that capture a specific moment and are not retroactively modified.
The workflow relies on a personal knowledge management system like Obsidian and the Zettelkasten method.
