-   I enrolled on the [[Introduction to Complexity]] course from the [[Santa Fe Institute]].  It teaches about [[complex systems]] and uses [[NetLogo]].

-   Yes, I could be making better use of references and citations in org-roam, I think.
    -   I am doing this in theory, I believe, in that I have note files on particular references.  I'm just not giving these files formal cite links, and also not linking these to a bibliography.  I don't think that matters so much for online articles, but perhaps it would be better for books and journal articles.
    -   I'm confused as to whether I should be using [[org-cite]] or [[org-ref]] though.

-   Anyway, I think I'll set up [[Zotero]] for at least capturing the PDFs that I want.  I do note that [[Leo Vivier]] in one of his videos seemed to be using Calibre to store his PDFs.  Given I have my normal books in Calibre, maybe I want to do that too?
    -   This here [thread](https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/81905/zotero-vs-calibre-or-a-workflow-for-using-both) seems to think having Calibre for books and Zotero for papers is fine.

-   OK.  So perhaps org-ref is actually how you manage your bibliography file?  So kind of a Zotero alternative.  And org-cite is just how you cite things in your org files.  maybe?  Not sure&#x2026;  [Has anyone migrated away from zotero/mendeley to just an org-based solution (&#x2026;](https://org-roam.discourse.group/t/has-anyone-migrated-away-from-zotero-mendeley-to-just-an-org-based-solution-probably-org-ref/772)

-   Enjoying the first unit of [[Introduction to Complexity]].

-   Oh my, [[NetLogo]] is amazing.
    -   There's so many rich examples in the Model Explorer.
    -   Including some sound-based ones!
