- Daily notes are considered useless because they are rarely revisited or shared, limiting their value.
- The value of a note increases with the number of visits and exponentially when shared.
- Instead of daily notes, focus on creating notes that are likely to be revisited or shared, like a 'focus.md' file for tasks.
- Creating notes for questions and their answers ensures information is captured once and can be reused or shared later.
- Notes should be tailored to individual needs, focusing on preventing toil rather than generating digital clutter.
