Field notes
The author says his notes, memory system, and plugins run locally and can be read, changed, and taken elsewhere. His engineering portfolio gives unusually specific figures, including a 917.2 kg-per-tonne raw-material consumption figure for the niacinamide design. The journal mixes literary entries with practical notes, such as download links tested against connection failures and mirror speeds.
