kennethreitz ce93f429a2 Add Knowledge: the vault's reference shelf, crosslinked across the site
Publish the Obsidian vault's Knowledge folder as /knowledge (881 notes,
67 folders), with a Knowledge item in the nav and footer.

- scripts/import_knowledge.py regenerates data/knowledge from the vault:
  slugged paths, folder notes as index pages, wikilinks resolved to site
  links (or plain text), callouts, highlights, and Dataview tables
  rendered statically. Personal notes are withheld via an exclusion
  list plus a privacy guard.
- tuftecms/core/knowledge.py builds a concept index from note titles and
  aliases. First mentions on ordinary pages link to their Knowledge note
  (capped, never in headings, code, links, or sidenotes); Knowledge pages
  list related notes and where they're mentioned across the site; other
  pages get a Related Knowledge block.
- Knowledge URLs join sitemap.xml (so the sweep test covers them), never
  displace existing legacy slugs, list alphabetically, and mermaid
  diagrams render client-side only on pages that have them.

> *"The mind is like an iceberg — most is beneath the surface."*

## Overview
Psychoanalysis — the tradition Jung split from, kept here for what it still gets right: defense mechanisms, transference patterns, and the historical foundation of depth psychology. [Major Freudian Concepts](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/major-freudian-concepts) is the overview; the rest of the folder takes the ideas individually.
---
## The Model
Everything starts with [The Unconscious](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/the-unconscious) — Freud's insight that most of mental life happens beneath awareness. Its structure is the eternal negotiation of The Id, Ego, and Superego, driven by [The Pleasure Principle](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/the-pleasure-principle) (the id's one rule: more, now) and shaped in childhood through [Psychosexual Development](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/psychosexual-development) and [The Oedipus Complex](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/the-oedipus-complex), the family drama that forges the superego.
## The Defenses
[Defense Mechanisms](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/defense-mechanisms) catalogs how the ego lies to itself to survive — repression, projection, sublimation, and the rest.
## The Method
The clinical toolkit: [Free Association](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/free-association) (say whatever comes to mind), [Dream Work](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/dream-work) (the royal road to the unconscious), Transference (you're not talking to your therapist — you're talking to your mother), and [Resistance](/knowledge/psychology/freudian/resistance) (the patient seeks help but fights the process).
