-00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:10.559 -leo has talked about like the overall - -00:00:10.559 --> 00:00:12.639 -picture of orgrim and or - -00:00:12.639 --> 00:00:15.120 -uh bibtex or groundbreak tech I will be - -00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:16.240 -talking more about - -00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:19.199 -the research process itself using these - -00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:20.320 -tools - -00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:22.400 -all right so just to introduce that the - -00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:25.039 -research process is really messy - -00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:28.080 -um you're always working in like - -00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:31.039 -piecemeal tasks and things move around - -00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:32.960 -all the time and so - -00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:35.280 -there needs to be a system where you can - -00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:36.880 -organize all these tasks - -00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:39.360 -all these ideas in a way that is - -00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:41.760 -flexible and effective - -00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:44.239 -so my motivation is that research is - -00:00:44.239 --> 00:00:44.960 -hard and - -00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:47.120 -writing about it is even more difficult - -00:00:47.120 --> 00:00:49.600 -and my goal is to add some structure to - -00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:51.120 -this whole madness - -00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:52.800 -so here's a list of some of the stuff - -00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:54.480 -that I've been using since I first - -00:00:54.480 --> 00:00:57.199 -learned about Emacs in 2019 - -00:00:57.199 --> 00:01:00.160 -and what I've what I've found useful um - -00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:02.000 -during my res uh like um - -00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:05.199 -within my research process all right so - -00:01:05.199 --> 00:01:07.920 -I've organized org mode for researchers - -00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:10.400 -and scholars within the writing process - -00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:12.400 -into three modules first there's like - -00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:14.320 -the planning aspect of it - -00:01:14.320 --> 00:01:15.759 -then you've got the writing and the - -00:01:15.759 --> 00:01:17.680 -reference management which I will join - -00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:18.320 -together - -00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:20.560 -by looking at the example of doing your - -00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:21.920 -literature review - -00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:24.720 -all right so when we're talking about - -00:01:24.720 --> 00:01:26.479 -planning we're talking about either task - -00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:27.360 -management or - -00:01:27.360 --> 00:01:30.880 -time management with task management - -00:01:30.880 --> 00:01:31.600 -you've got - -00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:33.840 -org modes to do's and tags and - -00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:36.159 -categories these are really powerful - -00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:38.479 -tools that you could use - -00:01:38.479 --> 00:01:41.600 -um in your org files to just um - -00:01:41.600 --> 00:01:44.799 -uh like organize your tasks and - -00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:47.040 -your appointments so there are different - -00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:49.040 -types of to-do's that you can either set - -00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:50.960 -globally in your init file or they can - -00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:52.799 -be file buffer specific - -00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:55.200 -so that means based on context based on - -00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:56.079 -the type of - -00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:57.759 -manuscript you're working on whether - -00:01:57.759 --> 00:01:59.280 -it's like a literate programming - -00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:02.240 -report or your actual thesis slash - -00:02:02.240 --> 00:02:03.759 -dissertation - -00:02:03.759 --> 00:02:05.840 -um also these to-do's are either created - -00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:07.759 -as a set tree like think of them as - -00:02:07.759 --> 00:02:11.440 -headings and sections if you use latex - -00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:14.800 -or inline text which are like org inline - -00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:15.360 -tasks I - -00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:17.760 -like organ line tasks because like I can - -00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:19.120 -add - -00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:21.520 -to do's between two paragraphs and that - -00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:22.879 -way it doesn't show up - -00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:25.360 -in the table of contents when I export - -00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:27.280 -into pdf or html or - -00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:30.879 -anything else all right so this is an - -00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:34.319 -example of buffer specific to do's - -00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.360 -and and this is example of like a little - -00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:39.120 -programming report that I was working on - -00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:40.800 -where I was like dealing with - -00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:43.200 -data and like analysis and all of that - -00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:44.080 -stuff and so - -00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.519 -I needed um context specific to do's to - -00:02:47.519 --> 00:02:49.440 -use them within this buffer - -00:02:49.440 --> 00:02:52.080 -um and that's how I would organize it - -00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:54.319 -and there's also also another example - -00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:57.200 -of an org inline task where you could - -00:02:57.200 --> 00:02:57.920 -see it - -00:02:57.920 --> 00:03:01.360 -in the middle between the two headings - -00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:03.040 -that way it wouldn't show up in the - -00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:04.959 -table of contents and it would look like - -00:03:04.959 --> 00:03:06.480 -nature within the - -00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:09.519 -text when you export it - -00:03:09.519 --> 00:03:11.920 -oh but I also added a tag of no export - -00:03:11.920 --> 00:03:13.280 -so it won't show up at all - -00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:16.400 -when I export it into like either pdf - -00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:19.360 -which I use all the time all right so - -00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:21.599 -another useful tool - -00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:24.159 -um for the research and just like - -00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:25.200 -general planning - -00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:27.920 -is the org capture um when I first - -00:03:27.920 --> 00:03:29.120 -started with Emacs - -00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.080 -actually it was for org agenda and I - -00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:34.239 -went crazy with my capture template I - -00:03:34.239 --> 00:03:35.360 -created a template for - -00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:37.599 -everything um because I was just so - -00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:38.640 -excited - -00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:40.720 -but with time I was using less and less - -00:03:40.720 --> 00:03:42.400 -of them so I kept taking them out - -00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:46.319 -and now this is my simplified um - -00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:48.239 -capture templates that I use either for - -00:03:48.239 --> 00:03:49.599 -a general to do - -00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.159 -um for a regular appointment a fleeting - -00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:54.159 -note research tasks because like those - -00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:55.200 -are what I focus on - -00:03:55.200 --> 00:03:56.959 -like my bread and butter and then - -00:03:56.959 --> 00:03:58.720 -finally with meetings which I find - -00:03:58.720 --> 00:04:00.879 -sometimes I don't use it as much because - -00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:01.680 -I would just like - -00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:03.519 -have the org file ready instead of - -00:04:03.519 --> 00:04:04.879 -needing to capture - -00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:07.920 -you know open a capture template - -00:04:07.920 --> 00:04:11.439 -right or agenda um that's how I got into - -00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:12.400 -Emacs - -00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:15.439 -I needed to um organize my life and I - -00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:16.799 -found Emacs and - -00:04:16.799 --> 00:04:19.199 -it's been great ever since um it - -00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:20.479 -populates all your to-do's and - -00:04:20.479 --> 00:04:22.720 -appointments into a singular view so the - -00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:25.280 -default view I think it's a weak view - -00:04:25.280 --> 00:04:29.120 -however I use org super agenda love this - -00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.919 -um package and I set up my agenda as a - -00:04:31.919 --> 00:04:34.160 -daily view with just appointments - -00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:37.360 -deadlines and a habit tracker um and - -00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:38.720 -a side note you guys I'm still - -00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:40.639 -struggling with organizing the perfect - -00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:42.320 -agenda so it's a process - -00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:45.360 -and take it easy all right - -00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:47.919 -so this is just an overview of my daily - -00:04:47.919 --> 00:04:50.320 -agenda as you can see they're just like - -00:04:50.320 --> 00:04:52.800 -appointments that I import from gmail - -00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.520 -using org gcal - -00:04:55.520 --> 00:04:57.919 -a simple habit tracker of like daily - -00:04:57.919 --> 00:04:58.880 -free writing - -00:04:58.880 --> 00:05:00.960 -as you can see there are a lot of times - -00:05:00.960 --> 00:05:02.800 -where I'm skipping and the asterisk is - -00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:05.199 -the one where I've completed that day - -00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:08.479 -so you know it's a process and then just - -00:05:08.479 --> 00:05:10.080 -like regular deadlines - -00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:12.639 -so what happens is that I have other - -00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:14.000 -to-do's that I have - -00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:17.120 -not scheduled or not added a deadline - -00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:17.919 -but they're just - -00:05:17.919 --> 00:05:20.560 -tasks that keep piling up when I first - -00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:22.320 -started with Emacs and org agenda - -00:05:22.320 --> 00:05:24.880 -I had everything in there and it got - -00:05:24.880 --> 00:05:26.880 -overwhelming and then I decided no - -00:05:26.880 --> 00:05:29.680 -I'm not gonna even let them show up so - -00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:30.800 -what I would do - -00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:33.120 -at the beginning of each week or the - -00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:34.479 -night before - -00:05:34.479 --> 00:05:36.800 -um I would sit down look at all my to - -00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:38.000 -to-do's that I have - -00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.720 -not assigned yet to a deadline or a - -00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:42.639 -schedule or just a simple - -00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:45.360 -timestamp um and I would organize them - -00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:46.320 -throughout the week - -00:05:46.320 --> 00:05:49.520 -so here's an example of what I did - -00:05:49.520 --> 00:05:51.680 -so on that wednesday from my gmail I had - -00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:53.039 -all these appointments but - -00:05:53.039 --> 00:05:55.600 -one of them is I have a writing group - -00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:56.560 -session - -00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:58.400 -and so I looked at my tasks and I - -00:05:58.400 --> 00:05:59.759 -thought okay then I will just - -00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:02.639 -assign um like for example my emac - -00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:03.520 -slides - -00:06:03.520 --> 00:06:06.319 -or the framework diagram into that - -00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:07.280 -writing session - -00:06:07.280 --> 00:06:09.600 -and all I did was just add an active - -00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:10.800 -timestamp - -00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:12.960 -that is all I needed to do and it went - -00:06:12.960 --> 00:06:14.000 -straight into my - -00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:17.120 -appointment now if I miss that - -00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:20.080 -it won't show up on the next day so if - -00:06:20.080 --> 00:06:21.520 -you put in a deadline - -00:06:21.520 --> 00:06:24.639 -it will show up as an overdue but if you - -00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.560 -have no deadline or schedule it will not - -00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:29.280 -show up in your daily org agenda - -00:06:29.280 --> 00:06:32.960 -so just a star - -00:06:32.960 --> 00:06:35.680 -all right another way of accessing your - -00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:37.520 -to do's is that if it's - -00:06:37.520 --> 00:06:40.880 -um file specific org file specific - -00:06:40.880 --> 00:06:42.160 -buffer specific - -00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:44.160 -and so like when we talked about like - -00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.400 -whether to have a big ass org file or - -00:06:46.400 --> 00:06:47.680 -like tiny files - -00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:50.720 -it all depends and this isn't the the - -00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:54.560 -um you know the way this depends - -00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:55.759 -because if you're working on like a - -00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:58.400 -dissertation um it's a huge manuscript - -00:06:58.400 --> 00:06:59.680 -you need to like work - -00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:02.880 -on that org file all the time um - -00:07:02.880 --> 00:07:05.759 -then yes it might do should be in that - -00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:07.680 -file specifically because every time if - -00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:08.000 -I'm - -00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:09.680 -if I'm visiting this org file all the - -00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:12.479 -time I should be able to just look at my - -00:07:12.479 --> 00:07:15.520 -tasks from uh within that buffer - -00:07:15.520 --> 00:07:18.639 -and so I use org sidebar to - -00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:21.599 -keep all these specific uh to do's - -00:07:21.599 --> 00:07:22.960 -within that org file - -00:07:22.960 --> 00:07:26.560 -I find it helpful okay - -00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:28.400 -now that we're going into the writing - -00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:29.759 -and reference management - -00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:33.039 -we'll call it a literature review um - -00:07:33.039 --> 00:07:35.840 -and this is something I've built as a - -00:07:35.840 --> 00:07:36.639 -schema - -00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:40.240 -I think that it works for now - -00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:43.759 -um and it requires one outside pack - -00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:45.919 -of outside software which is zotero what - -00:07:45.919 --> 00:07:47.680 -I use it's an open source reference - -00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:48.720 -management - -00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:51.759 -software um it's great - -00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:53.599 -but the things to keep in mind is that I - -00:07:53.599 --> 00:07:55.120 -use two um - -00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:58.319 -plugins that is really needed for when - -00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:01.039 -we work with orgrim bibtex and orgrim - -00:08:01.039 --> 00:08:03.840 -and org mode um and the zap file so - -00:08:03.840 --> 00:08:06.160 -better bibtex organizes your reference - -00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:07.039 -keys - -00:08:07.039 --> 00:08:10.560 -um in um in a way like in a fashion that - -00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.360 -works for you so for me all my reference - -00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:14.240 -keys are like - -00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:17.280 -last author and gear um and with zap - -00:08:17.280 --> 00:08:21.120 -file I um I let it like rename all the - -00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:22.319 -pdf files - -00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:24.400 -the same way that I have for my bit of - -00:08:24.400 --> 00:08:26.000 -my bib keys which is like - -00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:29.360 -last name of author and year all right - -00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:33.440 -once you export your entire - -00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:37.120 -library as a bib file then you can work - -00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:39.440 -on it within org mode and Emacs - -00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:42.880 -using um the following packages - -00:08:42.880 --> 00:08:45.040 -all right so with orgrim bibtex it - -00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:47.839 -creates an org file for each bib entry - -00:08:47.839 --> 00:08:49.519 -and you have the option of like - -00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:52.240 -templating and doing other stuff with it - -00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:54.880 -and then finally there's like this orb - -00:08:54.880 --> 00:08:56.240 -pdf scraper - -00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:58.800 -I've used it briefly but I think the - -00:08:58.800 --> 00:09:00.240 -potential - -00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:02.880 -with or pdf scraper is if you're gonna - -00:09:02.880 --> 00:09:05.920 -do a bibliometric study or like a - -00:09:05.920 --> 00:09:08.320 -systematic literature view there's - -00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:10.000 -something there but I have to look - -00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:10.959 -through it - -00:09:10.959 --> 00:09:14.399 -anyway so once you create your you know - -00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:16.880 -your reference file of reference x and - -00:09:16.880 --> 00:09:18.160 -you're writing your notes - -00:09:18.160 --> 00:09:20.240 -you can either go like with going - -00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:22.399 -through org mode you're writing - -00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:24.080 -your ideas you're writing your notes - -00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:26.080 -you're assigning tasks - -00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:27.839 -and then there's org transclusion which - -00:09:27.839 --> 00:09:30.480 -I will mention briefly at the end - -00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:32.240 -and ways to extract if you're going to - -00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:35.360 -go through the orgrom - -00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:36.640 -things that you're going to use within - -00:09:36.640 --> 00:09:38.720 -orgrom it's a great way to build your - -00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:40.000 -database you start making the - -00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:42.880 -connections and you can visualize your - -00:09:42.880 --> 00:09:44.959 -notes and like how these references are - -00:09:44.959 --> 00:09:46.240 -linked to each other - -00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:48.839 -through the organ server or or ground - -00:09:48.839 --> 00:09:50.240 -graph - -00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:53.120 -all right this is just notes for later - -00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:53.680 -okay - -00:09:53.680 --> 00:09:56.240 -so this is an example of like an orgram - -00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:57.360 -file that I have - -00:09:57.360 --> 00:09:59.279 -for example if I'm working on adaptation - -00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:01.760 -policy I have these hyperlinks that are - -00:10:01.760 --> 00:10:02.560 -linked to other - -00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:04.959 -concepts and ideas such as either - -00:10:04.959 --> 00:10:06.640 -climate security - -00:10:06.640 --> 00:10:08.720 -um changing global environment so on and - -00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:10.560 -so forth and the backlinks - -00:10:10.560 --> 00:10:13.920 -are other references that talk about - -00:10:13.920 --> 00:10:15.839 -this specific concept - -00:10:15.839 --> 00:10:17.680 -so this is really helpful and then when - -00:10:17.680 --> 00:10:19.920 -you visualize it the picture on the left - -00:10:19.920 --> 00:10:22.160 -which I'm sure looks really small - -00:10:22.160 --> 00:10:24.160 -um you can see the connections that it's - -00:10:24.160 --> 00:10:25.680 -making with other - -00:10:25.680 --> 00:10:28.160 -references so of course this is just - -00:10:28.160 --> 00:10:29.760 -like a buffer - -00:10:29.760 --> 00:10:32.720 -network when you look at the entire - -00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:34.560 -database network it's it's - -00:10:34.560 --> 00:10:38.000 -it's growing okay - -00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:41.680 -so going into organ bidtech - -00:10:41.680 --> 00:10:44.079 -so it utilizes a combination of the or - -00:10:44.079 --> 00:10:46.000 -graph package helmbik tech candidate - -00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:46.880 -completion - -00:10:46.880 --> 00:10:50.079 -and it works with orgrom functionalities - -00:10:50.079 --> 00:10:51.440 -and - -00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:54.880 -other good stuff this is an example - -00:10:54.880 --> 00:10:57.440 -of my orgrim bibtex file all right so - -00:10:57.440 --> 00:10:58.720 -I've created - -00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:01.200 -um the template which I pretty much use - -00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:02.320 -what leo - -00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:05.920 -has uh produced like in his um - -00:11:05.920 --> 00:11:08.640 -tutorial so I think it's it's great it - -00:11:08.640 --> 00:11:10.160 -works well for me - -00:11:10.160 --> 00:11:12.880 -um and what it does is that it works - -00:11:12.880 --> 00:11:14.480 -with your bib file - -00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:17.519 -so if you're in your bib file you have a - -00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:19.519 -sub entry that's called keywords and - -00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:21.040 -usually that's within - -00:11:21.040 --> 00:11:23.120 -a journal article the author would - -00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:24.560 -specify these - -00:11:24.560 --> 00:11:27.519 -keywords um when it gets imported into - -00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:28.160 -zotero - -00:11:28.160 --> 00:11:30.399 -it extracts those keywords and then it - -00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:32.399 -gets populated as an org file - -00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:34.959 -with orgrim bibtex so I always start - -00:11:34.959 --> 00:11:36.959 -with the meta information first and then - -00:11:36.959 --> 00:11:38.560 -I would write my notes - -00:11:38.560 --> 00:11:42.480 -after that this is an example though - -00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:45.760 -for reference of a physical book so - -00:11:45.760 --> 00:11:49.120 -I don't have a pdf file for it um - -00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:51.519 -so what I've figured out like a new idea - -00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:53.920 -for it so if I'm writing notes on it - -00:11:53.920 --> 00:11:55.760 -I would create a property that says - -00:11:55.760 --> 00:11:57.279 -pages um - -00:11:57.279 --> 00:11:58.959 -that way it's easier for you when you go - -00:11:58.959 --> 00:12:00.639 -back to citing - -00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:02.720 -um certain ideas or something that you - -00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:04.720 -have the pages prepared there - -00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:07.839 -it's easier that way okay - -00:12:07.839 --> 00:12:11.279 -org noter which is something I - -00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.040 -use a lot especially with journal - -00:12:13.040 --> 00:12:14.880 -articles that have pdfs and stuff like - -00:12:14.880 --> 00:12:15.600 -that - -00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:19.120 -they're really helpful if you are gonna - -00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:22.720 -if you've just started using um Emacs - -00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:23.760 -and orgrim - -00:12:23.760 --> 00:12:26.959 -and you have all these pdfs that have - -00:12:26.959 --> 00:12:29.519 -all the annotations and highlighting and - -00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:30.079 -the - -00:12:30.079 --> 00:12:32.639 -all that stuff with org noter you can - -00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:33.200 -just - -00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:36.720 -use the org note or create skeleton - -00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:39.519 -uh command and it will populate all your - -00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.200 -notes that have already been - -00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:43.760 -um entered within the pdf file if you're - -00:12:43.760 --> 00:12:44.800 -using an outside - -00:12:44.800 --> 00:12:48.160 -software and creates them like as a neat - -00:12:48.160 --> 00:12:52.560 -org file I I highly recommend - -00:12:52.560 --> 00:12:55.920 -finally org transclusion um - -00:12:55.920 --> 00:12:57.920 -I think this is still in its beta phase - -00:12:57.920 --> 00:13:01.040 -but I've been enjoying it so far - -00:13:01.040 --> 00:13:02.720 -um I'm guessing people know what - -00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:04.800 -translation mean which is sort of like - -00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:06.480 -copy pasting text from - -00:13:06.480 --> 00:13:09.600 -one org file to another this is helpful - -00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:11.839 -I I think I I peeked at a question that - -00:13:11.839 --> 00:13:12.959 -was talking about like - -00:13:12.959 --> 00:13:16.320 -you know linking um to other org files - -00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:18.320 -I think org transclusion could really - -00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:20.320 -work okay it's - -00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:24.399 -equivalent to the include - -00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:27.760 -function within org mode um but I think - -00:13:27.760 --> 00:13:29.519 -so like if you have other files - -00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:32.560 -that you know which region that you - -00:13:32.560 --> 00:13:34.800 -need in another file you could use the - -00:13:34.800 --> 00:13:36.079 -include but with - -00:13:36.079 --> 00:13:38.160 -org transclusion it's great I mean you - -00:13:38.160 --> 00:13:39.440 -just have - -00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:42.720 -um you're just linking one part to the - -00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:43.360 -other - -00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:45.760 -sort of like not refiling but you know - -00:13:45.760 --> 00:13:47.760 -hyperlinking - -00:13:47.760 --> 00:13:49.680 -so this is an example of what org - -00:13:49.680 --> 00:13:51.120 -transclusion looks like - -00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:53.680 -um so the highlighted problem statement - -00:13:53.680 --> 00:13:54.720 -is from another - -00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:57.760 -org file and then what I would do is - -00:13:57.760 --> 00:13:58.240 -just like - -00:13:58.240 --> 00:13:59.760 -link it to there and there was like a - -00:13:59.760 --> 00:14:01.440 -transclusion command - -00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:05.440 -I wish I made another screenshot of it - -00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:08.399 -and so when you invoke org transclusion - -00:14:08.399 --> 00:14:09.120 -mode - -00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:12.079 -it turns um it prints it out like that - -00:14:12.079 --> 00:14:12.480 -so - -00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:15.120 -it's in view mode and then when you want - -00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:16.560 -to edit it will take you back to that - -00:14:16.560 --> 00:14:18.480 -buffer and you can edit the text - -00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:21.839 -however you want all right so thank you - -00:14:21.839 --> 00:14:22.720 -so much - -00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.000 -um I wanted to leave room for questions - -00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:29.120 -but special thanks to all the folks that - -00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:32.560 -work on orgrom or ground bibtex orgrim - -00:14:32.560 --> 00:14:33.440 -server or - -00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:36.320 -transclusion and of course alpha papo on - -00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:38.240 -or super agenda and org sidebar - -00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:43.440 -that's how I got into Emacs thank you - -00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:45.600 -all right and uh well thank you so yeah - -00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:47.120 -this time I'll be the one asking the - -00:14:47.120 --> 00:14:49.120 -question and not I'm in so - -00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:51.360 -I'm feeling filling big shoes right now - -00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:53.120 -so you'll have to bear with me folks - -00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:54.880 -so thank you so much noora for your - -00:14:54.880 --> 00:14:56.240 -presentation that is incredibly - -00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:57.279 -interesting - -00:14:57.279 --> 00:14:58.959 -so would you mind if I fed you questions - -00:14:58.959 --> 00:15:00.800 -from the charts yeah - -00:15:00.800 --> 00:15:04.000 -go ahead okay so the first one I I've - -00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:06.160 -picked on my end was did you try using - -00:15:06.160 --> 00:15:07.920 -ebib instead of zotero - -00:15:07.920 --> 00:15:10.560 -and if so is it better than zotero in - -00:15:10.560 --> 00:15:12.079 -some ways - -00:15:12.079 --> 00:15:14.880 -I no I have not used eb I've only used - -00:15:14.880 --> 00:15:15.680 -mendeley - -00:15:15.680 --> 00:15:18.560 -and then they got bought by el savior - -00:15:18.560 --> 00:15:20.320 -and so like I was like okay I'm done - -00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:23.040 -I'm going to zotero um there are a lot - -00:15:23.040 --> 00:15:25.120 -of plugins with zotero that you can play - -00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:26.240 -around with - -00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:28.320 -so I can't speak for ebit but definitely - -00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:30.480 -zotero it's been a good experience so - -00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:32.079 -far - -00:15:32.079 --> 00:15:34.880 -yes same I also I also do research on - -00:15:34.880 --> 00:15:35.360 -the site - -00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:38.079 -as I told you english major and yeah I - -00:15:38.079 --> 00:15:39.360 -also do zotero - -00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:41.839 -some people have been using uh a - -00:15:41.839 --> 00:15:43.759 -connector between zotero and Emacs which - -00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:44.160 -has - -00:15:44.160 --> 00:15:46.000 -they've had great success with them but - -00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:47.360 -personally I haven't touched - -00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:50.480 -touched it already so yeah - -00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:52.240 -oh go ahead sorry all right so far I - -00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:53.920 -don't have any problems with zotero but - -00:15:53.920 --> 00:15:54.880 -maybe if I - -00:15:54.880 --> 00:15:56.320 -run into something I might check out - -00:15:56.320 --> 00:15:58.320 -ebay in the future - -00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:00.240 -yeah definitely I think zotero is a very - -00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:01.680 -solid project and you know the fact that - -00:16:01.680 --> 00:16:02.560 -it's being used - -00:16:02.560 --> 00:16:04.959 -by people outside of Emacs also ensures - -00:16:04.959 --> 00:16:06.560 -that there's quite a lot of packing - -00:16:06.560 --> 00:16:07.680 -behind the software - -00:16:07.680 --> 00:16:09.759 -which is reassuring when your livelihood - -00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:11.759 -depends on your research - -00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:13.519 -right and then I think one more thing - -00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:15.600 -with zotero is that you can create - -00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:17.519 -groups so if you're in a collaborative - -00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:18.079 -project - -00:16:18.079 --> 00:16:20.160 -you can create a reference you know a - -00:16:20.160 --> 00:16:22.320 -library just for your group and I think - -00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:23.759 -that could help because like I - -00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:25.279 -I'm going to be in a project next - -00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:27.600 -semester that requires that - -00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:29.839 -yeah definitely I believe the ability to - -00:16:29.839 --> 00:16:31.600 -have folders inside zotero - -00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:33.839 -makes it incredibly useful to manage - -00:16:33.839 --> 00:16:35.360 -your different projects concurrent - -00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:37.440 -projects - -00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:39.279 -so moving on to the questions do you - -00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:41.279 -have any suggestion on what subjects or - -00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:43.440 -things should be tags or separate organ - -00:16:43.440 --> 00:16:46.560 -files for cross-linking - -00:16:46.560 --> 00:16:50.320 -right um so so far now like I'm having - -00:16:50.320 --> 00:16:52.720 -trouble with like should I be combining - -00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:55.360 -certain concepts together as one like - -00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:55.839 -this is - -00:16:55.839 --> 00:16:59.360 -where the the thought process you know - -00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:00.959 -starts coming to fruit is that when you - -00:17:00.959 --> 00:17:02.959 -start you know combining - -00:17:02.959 --> 00:17:04.880 -ideas together so you won't need a - -00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:06.480 -specific tag - -00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:09.199 -and another one that are like similar in - -00:17:09.199 --> 00:17:11.280 -ideas - -00:17:11.280 --> 00:17:12.720 -I'm not sure if that answers the - -00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:14.799 -question but like so far I've been using - -00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:15.919 -the orgrum - -00:17:15.919 --> 00:17:17.919 -you know the default way which is like - -00:17:17.919 --> 00:17:19.039 -many small - -00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:22.160 -um files and then just - -00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:24.400 -linking them to my like either if I have - -00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:26.319 -a report to write or if I have a like - -00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:26.959 -you know - -00:17:26.959 --> 00:17:32.240 -essay to write - -00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:35.360 -I think you're muted - -00:17:35.360 --> 00:17:37.760 -q and I just I did two stupid things the - -00:17:37.760 --> 00:17:38.400 -first one - -00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:40.640 -was filling up my water the second one - -00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:42.320 -was peeking without actually turning on - -00:17:42.320 --> 00:17:43.760 -my microphone - -00:17:43.760 --> 00:17:45.760 -so let's just hope that nothing is going - -00:17:45.760 --> 00:17:47.760 -to fry in the near vicinity of me right - -00:17:47.760 --> 00:17:48.320 -now - -00:17:48.320 --> 00:17:49.840 -but uh yeah I believe you've answered - -00:17:49.840 --> 00:17:51.440 -the question so don't worry about it I'm - -00:17:51.440 --> 00:17:53.200 -slightly wet right now which is not a - -00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:55.280 -very agreeable feeling but we'll have to - -00:17:55.280 --> 00:17:57.280 -carry on I suppose - -00:17:57.280 --> 00:17:59.360 -another question is there a place where - -00:17:59.360 --> 00:18:01.600 -people are collaborating on research - -00:18:01.600 --> 00:18:04.320 -about Emacs so do you want to try to - -00:18:04.320 --> 00:18:06.160 -take this one - -00:18:06.160 --> 00:18:08.559 -um I don't know but I'm definitely - -00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:10.559 -interested in the user experience of - -00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:12.480 -Emacs so - -00:18:12.480 --> 00:18:14.720 -if anyone wants to work on that I'm - -00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:16.400 -happy - -00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:18.320 -well you do have a a pretty good - -00:18:18.320 --> 00:18:19.760 -candidate in front of you if I - -00:18:19.760 --> 00:18:22.080 -should say so myself I'm incredibly - -00:18:22.080 --> 00:18:22.960 -interested about - -00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:25.039 -um the ability to do research in Emacs - -00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:26.960 -and about the ability to - -00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:30.480 -um preach the floss way - -00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:32.480 -to academia and to the academe - -00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:34.080 -especially because I believe there's - -00:18:34.080 --> 00:18:35.280 -really something - -00:18:35.280 --> 00:18:38.240 -great to be done sorry I'm just looking - -00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:39.919 -at the puddle of water on the side which - -00:18:39.919 --> 00:18:41.840 -is slightly oozing my way - -00:18:41.840 --> 00:18:45.039 -which is not a very good feeling really - -00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:46.880 -but yeah I believe I believe some work - -00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:48.320 -could be done and if people are - -00:18:48.320 --> 00:18:50.000 -interested in the chat right now - -00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:52.320 -I mean do get in touch with us both - -00:18:52.320 --> 00:18:53.440 -neuron and I - -00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:56.480 -are on our slack channel yes I know - -00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:57.280 -slack - -00:18:57.280 --> 00:19:00.080 -the corporate hive mind that it's like - -00:19:00.080 --> 00:19:01.919 -but we've decided with orgrim to use - -00:19:01.919 --> 00:19:02.720 -slack - -00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:05.520 -but you can find us very easily and uh - -00:19:05.520 --> 00:19:06.880 -if you want to talk about these topics - -00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:07.360 -yes - -00:19:07.360 --> 00:19:08.720 -by all means do and we'll be very - -00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:10.720 -interested to answer your questions - -00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:12.640 -so I have a question here says like how - -00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:15.520 -does the view for time blocking works - -00:19:15.520 --> 00:19:18.640 -um I use org super agenda so - -00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:22.000 -um what happens is that my active - -00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:23.200 -timestamps are - -00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:26.960 -only in my gmail or file - -00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:29.200 -so if you use org gcal you have to - -00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:30.080 -specify - -00:19:30.080 --> 00:19:32.559 -a certain org file and when it you know - -00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:34.320 -imports them it imports them as like - -00:19:34.320 --> 00:19:35.679 -active - -00:19:35.679 --> 00:19:38.400 -timestamps and I make sure whenever I - -00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:40.480 -create a to-do or even a research task - -00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:42.480 -that it doesn't have a time stamp on it - -00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:45.039 -because what I want to do is go back - -00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:48.480 -and then move around um these tags - -00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:50.160 -according to my you know either weekly - -00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:51.919 -schedule or monthly or however long you - -00:19:51.919 --> 00:19:52.960 -want to do it - -00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:56.480 -um so yeah only active timestamps or - -00:19:56.480 --> 00:19:59.679 -deadlines um appear in your time grid - -00:19:59.679 --> 00:20:03.280 -so that could work um that's very good - -00:20:03.280 --> 00:20:05.440 -just just to uh interject for a second - -00:20:05.440 --> 00:20:06.320 -about this - -00:20:06.320 --> 00:20:07.840 -you know with orgrim right now we're - -00:20:07.840 --> 00:20:10.720 -mostly uh focused on optimization - -00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:13.039 -but we're hoping to move on to ux very - -00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:14.720 -soon so all those matters about -
