The following note is from my "hobby" Obsidian
vault that I never dated. The last modified
timestamp according to the file system is
2023-08-06T22:12:42-0700 and the
created timestamp is
2023-10-15 12:05:30-0700, but this is
on a computer the file was synced to. So, I don't
know when this note was made.
It did link to other dated entries, which I've gone ahead and linked in this note.
