<p>Yes! I use Scrivener. It exists because the developer needed a better tool to write novels. I end up too disorganized trying to write with other tools like word processors or flat files.<p>I managed to write a 25,000 word story in a word processor once, but it was such a jumble that I just closed the file and forgot about writing for a few years. I know now there are ways to organize with folders and spreadsheets, but now I do most of my writing on the phone. Scrivener's binder makes that easy on a small screen.</p>

<p>No one really knows a general "right" thing to do. Even someone who's found <i>a</i> right thing can't be much help if they just say what they did right. The best you can do is avoid doing the wrong things while probing around for a right thing. It's a way of thinking called inversion.<p>Try 100 things while avoiding common pitfalls. One of them will probably pan out.</p>

<p>>> <i>"Granted, even this information gets tainted: narcissist parents, for example, might come across as their parents being nice, but them not being nice to their parents."</i><p>You can tell a lot about someone by how they treat someone they don't like. Some people get downright cruel with people they don't like, and it's a huge red flag because some day they may find reason to not like you. You're just setting yourself up to become a target once you find yourself on their bad side.<p>You sometimes see this when someone's hating on a public figure. They insult the person's weight, appearance, and speculate about their sexuality. I am never surprised when these people turn out to be abusers and harassers.</p>

<p>From the iOS security guide PDF (<a href="https://www.apple.com/business/site/docs/iOS_Security_Guide.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.apple.com/business/site/docs/iOS_Security_Guide....</a>):<p>>> <i>"To protect the device from vulnerabilities in network processor firmware, network interfaces including Wi-Fi and baseband have limited access to application processor memory. When USB or SDIO is used to interface with the network processor, the network processor cannot initiate Direct Memory Access (DMA) transactions to the application processor. When PCIe is used, each network processor is on its own isolated PCIe bus. An IOMMU on each PCIe bus limits the network processor’s DMA access to pages of memory containing its network packets or control structures."</i></p>
