 Ramblings is primarily intended to help me understand how I understand things. While I am interested in understanding the things itself, the reason I write this down is to understand the [[Systems]] that lead me to understanding the patterns I recognize in the world. My brain is a mess of random thoughts and insides, and I need to systematically sort and order them to make sense of them and see connections. Ramblings aids in this by providing very rigid structure whilst leaving me exactly the amount of room I need to write out my thoughts. That is to say, thinking about things in the structure of a wiki helps me bring structure into the thoughts in my brain. Therefore:
-Rambles is <wrap em>not</wrap> an encyclopedia. It is not trying to be a documentation or a recording of reality. Rambles does not serve as a knowledge base. It is not a research resource. It does not attempt to cover fields and present information about them. Rambles is meant to be a fast, accessible and dynamic directory to categorize and classify my ideas. Most pages will include a brief breakdown of the nature of the thing in question and as quickly as possible gloss over the general category the thing in question falls into, and will then move on directly to my thoughts on it.

 For me, besides helping me remember things it is also meant to be 1) a form of self-expression, 2) a way to formalize my thoughts and to, 3), clean up in my brain and get things straight.
