Second Brain





Compiled notes on various concepts.






## About The Project



This is my combined vault of knowledge on several varied concepts and subjects going back as far as 2021 or so.



These notes got me through a Bachelor of Computer Science, and many other equally straining situations.



The main topics covered include:

- Generic programming concepts

- C and C++

- Mathematics

- Investing and financial products

- Machine Learning/AI

- Neuroscience

- React Native

- Qt/QML

- Quantum Computing



Most notes are written conceptually, with a casual and stream-of-consciousness style of writing to deformalise concepts and assist with quick high-level understanding of complex subjects. Others are written in a simple point-to-point style.



As learning is a constant process, so to is the expansion of this knowledge base, I intend to open source these for the remainder of my life in the hopes that they assist others in the same way they have assisted me.



*Please be aware that notes on more complex topics may include swearing.*



## Getting Started



To get started, you can clone the entire repository or pick files as required.



### Git



Run:  `git clone https://github.com/CarterFaceySmith/SecondBrain.git`



### [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/)



Obsidian is a Markdown based knowledge base application, it revolves around the idea that "the human brain is non-linear", notes are designed to follow a concept-based approach where things are simplified as much as possible via either black-boxing of unnecessary complexity or linking to deeper level concepts.



I personally use this application for notetaking and organisation because I enjoy the features and keybindings but you can effectively use whatever allows for Markdown importing.



#### Obsidian Installation



1. Download the latest Obsidian release for your operating system [here](https://obsidian.md/).

2. Clone the repository as above: `git clone https://github.com/CarterFaceySmith/SecondBrain.git`

3. Open the cloned repository as a "Vault" from the Obsidian startup menu.



Simple.



### Prerequisites



None, the files are all Markdown so use whatever you please to view them, you can even just navigate through this repository if you wish.



### Notes:



If you find any errors, issues or something of note for a different reason please feel free to either log an issue or [contact me](mailto:[email protected]).

I wanted to have a section here dedicated to people and resources that have helped create this knowledge base over the years, unfortunately an addition made far too late as I'm sure that at the time of writing I have forgotten many attributions that deserve to be here already.
