Comp sci student, don't want to have to collect a thousand different notebooks alongside my x220. Is it time to get an iPad?
>>106864740>digital notesenjoy not retaining anythinga single 1.5 inch binder (or whatever the metric equivalent is) will happily hold all of your notes and work for all your classes for an entire semester with no issue
>>106864740Just buy cheap paper and a cheap pen and write, not that hard. No one achieved anything great "studying" with an iPad, that's niggerlicious consummerism.
You're taking what, 4 or 5 classes per semester?Go to Dollar Tree and pick up 5 spiral bound notebooks for $1.25 each.
>>106864752>>106864822suppose what i want to be able to do is to handwrite my work with a stylus and save it digitally. my professor wants us to upload our shit as a pdf or jpeg, and taking pictures of my handwritten notes seems less convenient than a tablet of some sort.was thinking of getting this and connecting it to my laptop during class, although maybe that's another pain in the ass

>>106864907jeji thought so too, hence the ipad
Something like this, dumbass.Don’t now which one is best for note taking. Picrel is a remarkable. I have a boox that I mainly use as a reader.
>>106864901I use one of these for all my classes and notes and its pretty comfyJust put the tablet on top of the keyboard in auditoria with small tablesXournal++ is quite good if you're looking for something to write on slides with
>>106864740you should learn instead of taking thousands of fucking notes that you wont read
>>106864901I have a remarkable 2, but you're just being a piggy. just handwrite and scan your work using an app (this is built-in on iOS).I only got the remarkable because I do math as a hobby as well and got tired of having stacks of paper everywhere, and also wanted to use it as a PDF reader
>>106866395also this, notes are gay. if you read the book, you know where the information you need is. rather than notes, solve problems using scratch paper
ive never once read notes ive written from classbefore the class begins i cram as much as possible from online

>>106864901>my professor wants us to upload our shit as a pdf or jpegWhy? Isn't it easier for them to correct a bunch of paper sheets instead of having to squint at poorly scanned digital documents?>>106864752>a single 1.5 inch binder (or whatever the metric equivalent is) will happily hold all of your notes and work for all your classes for an entire semester with no issueI used three just for math. Granted, my handwriting is a bit large, but still, there is no way you can fit everything in a single binder unless you are studying for a meme degree.

>>106864740Back in undergrad, I would write latex in real time on the left side of my laptop screen, with a trigger to regenerate a pdf on the right when I saved. I just had one giant .tex file for each class, divided into chapters by lecture day.
>>106864740plug ethernet and they do not have anything better opinions might vary
if you don't already know latex, then typst is easier to learn. just run it locally and you're good to go
Just use LyX, I went from pen&paper to a surface pro with a stylus to LyX and I never looked back.It's the easiest way to get into LaTeX, not that LaTeX is hard, but it's something to get used to.Seriously, for mathematics it's the fucking GOATPlus, any other program that supports mathematical notation will probably use LaTeX syntax or something very similar, From personal experience it's true for OneNote, Obsidian and Zettlr.
>>106864740Write them by handTake a photo or scan them
Ignore all the tech luddites telling you to just use pencil and paper they never went to college.When I was in school (2014-2018) I used a boogie board sync, took notes during class, then after class synced the generated PDFs the device made to my laptop. And there I would go through the notes again and rerwite them in a cleaner form (using Latex etc) to a personal wiki. I liked it more than carrying a million notebooks. And I had a few professors who were cunts and would ban ipad / laptop in class but let me use this thing once I showed them all I can do is scribble on it and hit erase. These days I would just get a cheap android tablet, or get a surface computer and use something like onenote. They make x86_64 tablets that run windows so you can have one device for everything.
>>106864740just use paper. if it was ok for all the mathematicians for the whole of human history, it will certainly be enough for (you)
I recommend pencil and paper for math-heavy classes. I'm not one of these retvrn retards, but I found it to be the best solution. Live-LaTeXing your notes is possible and I was able to do that, but I found that thinking about LaTeX distracted me from the content of the lecture.
