What is a Knowledge Accumulation Log (KAL)?

A KAL record describes what activities you performed in a day to broaden your knowledge in a particular category (subject/field/specialization). It sounded cool, that's why I made it up! 😛

Example list of committed KAL records for an imaginary person:

> kal ls --all 2024

# {year}-{ordinal_day} | {category}: {details}
