Version 0.2.6 of Braindump Released

March 31, 2016 | programming | python | projects |

I am excited to announce the release of version 0.2.6 of Braindump. I have taken a short break from Braindump at the beginning of the year, but I am still committed to making it the best note platform out there!

New Features

Note Archives
Ability to Completely Empty the Trash

Removed Features

Oauth[1]
Tasks[2]

UX

Note is kept active once it has been updated
Return to Same Notebook when adding a new note from within a Notebook

[1] Oauth has not been working for a while, and I want to dig into it more so I have removed it for now.

[2] Braindump is a Note tool first, I reworked Tasks in a previous release, but decided to remove it completely for now. I want to focus on making the best possible Note Platform before moving on to additional functionality.

I am planning on updating the docs to make it easier for people to contribute. In addition, I am planning yet another UI overhaul. I want to make the app simpler and more appealing.

Mailbag: October 2026

First of all, I wanted to send a thank you to everyone who ever sent me an email or a message. I read all of them, but can’t always respond timely – and sometimes at all – but I enjoy receiving those, and learn a lot from them. I wanted to excerpt a few th...

Regulating AI is hard because we don't really know how it works

(Note: I'm currently travelling in Canada's lovely Rocky Mountains, so I don't really have the bandwidth – mentally or in telecom terms – to come up with a brand-new Torment Nexus this week. My apologies! In its stead, please accept this republication of

“ignore the slop”

Lots of people who are against the use of AI for all its ethical and inherent issues tell me this. Just ignore it. Don’t let big AI control us. The “slop” they refer to is anything created that involved an AI, and in our case (the curl project) it is in pa...
