I’m not a doctor but he certainly seems neurodivergent based on his writing. It’s hard to imagine him ever changing in some significant way and being “rehabilitated” enough to be allowed back into society, hence the “some evidence”. It’s might be best he remains in jail rather than be paroled.

He did mention the murder of his wife and said he would detail his regret to anyone who asked. The rest of the letter describes the “social mistakes” in dealing with co-workers and the Linux community. He even asks that those co-workers’ names be added to the credits and his negative comments about them be deleted. There’s no forgiving what he did to his wife but there’s at least some evidence he’s changed since that happened.

I looked at Joplin and Obsidian for the kind of notetaking I do and settled on Obsidian. To be honest, both have more features than I use. I like Obsidian because it’s based on Markdown, so you’re not tied to some oddball file format. But you should try them out and see which one fits your work style.
