The status indicator reflects the current state of the work: - Abandoned: Work that has been discontinued - Notes: Initial collections of thoughts and references - Draft: Early structured version with a central thesis - In Progress: Well-developed work actively being refined - Finished: Completed work with no planned major changes This helps readers understand the maturity and completeness of the content.
The confidence tag expresses how well-supported the content is, or how likely its overall ideas are right. This uses a scale from "impossible" to "certain", based on the Kesselman List of Estimative Words: 1. "certain" 2. "highly likely" 3. "likely" 4. "possible" 5. "unlikely" 6. "highly unlikely" 7. "remote" 8. "impossible" Even ideas that seem unlikely may be worth exploring if their potential impact is significant enough.
The importance rating distinguishes between trivial topics and those which might change your life. Using a scale from 0-10, content is ranked based on its potential impact on: - the reader - the intended audience - the world at large For example, topics about fundamental research or transformative technologies would rank 9-10, while personal reflections or minor experiments might rank 0-1.
Let us come before the Lord and pray for the grace to resist wrath and anger.
Lord, have mercy on us for the times we have allowed our anger to control our actions and words.
Lord, have mercy on us for the times we have harbored resentment and bitterness in our hearts, and refused to forgive those who have wronged us.
Lord, have mercy on us for the times we have spoken hastily and without thinking, and hurt others with our words.
Lord, have mercy on us for the times we have taken revenge and sought to harm those who have wronged us, rather than seeking reconciliation.
Lord, have mercy on us for the times we have held onto grudges and refused to let go of past hurts, causing our anger to fester and grow.
Lord, have mercy on us for the times we have been impatient and intolerant of others, and failed to extend grace and understanding.
Lord, have mercy on us for the times we have forgotten your mercy towards us and failed to extend that same mercy to others.
May we seek to imitate the patience and forbearance of Christ, who endured suffering and injustice without lashing out in anger, and who prayed for his enemies even as he hung on the cross.
Amen.
