Those who cannot draw conclusions
From three thousand years of yearning
Linger on in dark confusion
Day to day live undiscerning.

Draw conclusions

This website is about organizing ideas in a way that furthers understanding, exchange and consistency.

Imagine you had every good thought you ever had in one place:

Distilled into the core thoughts, so that you don't have to go through long articles to find one sentence. Only the core thought, so reading up on it is easy and fast.
Well prepared, in uniformly plain, simple style, well illustrated, with associated examples and definitions.
Easily searchable, tagged, so you'll find it as soon as you look.
Well connected with all other relevant thoughts. So you won't just be able to find what you are looking for, but also what you were not looking for and had long forgotten.
Well scoped to contexts, so that personal feelings and experiences can be stored next to scientific facts without diluting the validity, ensuring that politically incorrect feelings can coexist with facts, each clearly marked as what they are.
Easily sharable with different people, so that you can easily share experiences, lessons, opinions, positions and discussion results with anyone you please, but only the distilled, relevant results.
With a memory on which thoughts of others you have already read, which you agree and disagree on, so that you can easily see when they add or change thoughts and always keep up to date with what your friends think and have learned, being able to either correct or learn from them. But most importantly: learn from or correct your younger self, since you can filter by ideas that you haven't reaffirmed in a long time.
Easily checkable for contradictions and thus very consistent. Everyone has blindspots. No one can be forced to see them, but this system makes them easy to find and very difficult to ignore.

Do you know the situation when:

Asynchronous conversations

You have an interesting idea or topic to talk about, but you can't discuss it well, because the right people are busy or not available right now.
Sure, it's not impossible to have asynchronous conversations with many tools. But usually, the associated difficulties prevent us from really digging deep into the topic:
Two months later, the interest has faded; No one wants to read through many pages of chat or arguments to get up to speed; You forgot what exactly it was you were discussing; etc.
This website is intended to break down those barriers and keep discussions alive.

Never lose a good thought again

You just had a great idea, a deep life insight, one which you would like to keep forever. But how save it? If you write it on paper, you might lose it. If you write it in a notebook, you'll never find it again. Should you write a blog article about it? Post on social media? Get a tattoo?!
Ideally, it would be easy to put it in the storage, safely store it through time and easy to find and retrieve it when you need it, even if you weren't specifically looking for it.
This website aspires to be that storage container.

Conquer complexity

Discussions are like sprints. But some topics are marathon-level complex, too complex to ever solve in one evening. It would take multiple sessions, which we rarely have the time or patience for. Hence, some discussions are doomed for external reasons, because our brain capacities fail at grasping the complexity at once.
But Complexity is only problematic if one lacks the means to deal with it. If we approach these topics like marathon runners, thinking about the next step instead of the finish line, we can cover vast topics in full depth.
This website aspires to be like a personal marathon-trainer: It can't run for you (you will still have to put a lot of work in), but it can help you to realize your full potential.

You realize that either you or a friend is going in circles and avoids drawing unpleasant but necessary conclusions?

Detect and remove inconsistencies and blindspots by creating a clear, step by step image of your mental world and letting it be critically assessed by yourself and others. This can prevent a person from alternating between positions to escape logical scrutiny, since jumping becomes difficult to impossible when writing down results that one can be held accountable for (e.g. "but you just said that the bible is literal and binding, so now you can't claim it's figurative and optional"). If a friend jumps around on the tree of arguments like that, with this method, in the best case scenario, they will see it and reconsider. In the worst case, you will understand that any further discussion is futile and will no longer try to argue about the topic with them, saving yourself time and stress.
