I'm just so bummed that multiple vaults are pretty much unusable. I can't sync my sensitive work notes. But I want to sync general programming notes between work and other PCs. But multiple vaults hardly work. The just open in a new window.

Other than that, I love so many things about the program. Just linking and graphs are weird and strangely overrated. Search and tags still rules over everything imo


I think separate vaults being in different window is probably intentional behavior to clearly show that they're separate vaults, not something that needs to be fixed.

If you want to sync only some of the things from a single vault and not other things, can't you just use different top-level folders? Have a "to-sync" folder and a "do-not-sync" folder, and only sync the to-sync one. I'm not sure if that's possible using Obsidian's paid sync, but it should be possible with other sync options.


What do you mean by "multiple vaults hardly work"?

If it helps Obsidian has a newish command called "Change vault..." that switches vaults without opening a new window.


But I don't want to change vaults, I want to work in both. I want to search for something and get results from all vaults. Or rather: I want to select which folders to sync - that would effectively be the same for me.

The main problem I have with using different Vaults at the same time is that they all share the same taskbar icon. For syncing you can sync your files however you want.

I mostly use one Vault for my setup, then things like linking and search work the best: https://bryanhogan.com/blog/obsidian-vault

I wouldn't call it unsuable though? I have one separate vault for just journaling and that works well.


The Raycast Obsidian plugin makes vaults pretty easy for me. Cmd+Space > "Open Vault" and then pick which one you want. You'll still have a window per vault but it makes it really fast to get to where you want.

Relay plugin lets you manage permissions at a granular folder level instead of all-or-nothing vault level.

Because it's a clickbait title

Understood. I will now aggressively flag so called "clickbait" on HN.

No they don't? You keep working for 2-10 months until you can leave whatever your contact says


All my work experience with guis was mfc. And all modernizations were web based. The in betweens are usually not considered worthwhile.

But imgui is a breeze of fresh air for internal stuff


Politicians literally have their own paragraph with insane protections, it's §188. You don't ever want to say something negative about a politicians in Germany. The police will kick in your door within days.


"Enterprise edition" is usually a sign of parody projects. But this seems to be serious?


When has "enterprise edition" ever been the sign of parody projects?




Since I've dealt with "EE" Java in a previous life, that's actually pretty tame as far as parodies go.

I hate the fact I can say that. :-/



I'd assume it's riffing on Java EE.


Yeah NOW it's suddenly about the guidelines lmao


YouTube is completely broken with this shitty spark thing. Also yesterday I was greeted with an entire new sidebar. It's comical


It literally breaks YouTube


It really is the specific wavelength. Higher or lower is easier. But euv has tricky properties which make it feasible for Lithography (although just barely it you have a look at the optics) but hard to produce with high intensities.


Specifically, what makes x-rays easy to generate are these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_X-ray In essence, smashing electrons into atoms allows you to ionize the inner shell of an atom and when an electron drops down from an outer shell, the excess energy is shed as high-energy photons. This constrains the energy range of X-ray tubes ("smash electron into metal") to wavelengths well below 13.5nm.

(These emission lines are also what is being used in x-ray spectroscopy to identify elements)


You can also generate broad spectrum bremsstrahlung radiation easily, this is widely used for medical X-rays.


Any source to this? I am hearing this for the first time.


ITs easy to make X-rays, you just hit a metal target with electrons: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_tube


You can hit metal the same way for EUV.


No you can't, or rather you only get a tiny amount in the correct wavelengths


I assume this doesn't work well otherwise everyone would be doing it.
