Idk that sounds like psychological issues, one must first tidy up the their mind before trying to find external ways like multiple types of notebooks for clean,semi dirty,scribbles and dirty notes. How about discarding messy thoughts or thinking them through until they become well organized and only then put to the good notebook. Notebooks are notebooks no need to complicate things. Its ok if its separated into themes like a notebook for general thoughts and a journal. Though in my note-taking experience of 19 years its ussually noy that important. I would just add extra ripped pages to my journal as notes on notes.

this is very wastefull and stupid, you can buy a auto prinkler with a timer for 100 euros, and seeding can be done by hand in the same time the bot does it.

This looks dumb....very dumb, am I missing something? This is not counting, its just sampling AND if you want to actually count all the distinct words the memory size used doesnt change in comparison to just counting.
