I wouldn\'t say I \'host\' + it \-\-- it\'s not online.

I tried to play around with the idea that + I structure the work in a repo, and then when I \"clock in\" it + saves time to a separate notes file instead\... but it seemed a + little too complicated, to my taste. + - I feel that the time tracking also kind of annoying, + especially you forgot to clock on and all the things mess + up. So right now I\'m just using a Pomodoro technique, 25 + minutes, done, rest, 25 minutes, rest, and kind of repeating + that. And I\'m quite happy with that. + - wait, what\'s that? \'org-pomodoro\'?. sounds + interesting\... + - It\'s not, you know, special for Org Mode. It\'s + kind of a general technique which you focus on a + small task for just 25 minutes, but at the time + you\'re super focused, 100% focused, and after that + five minutes you rest, and you\'re kind of repeating + these patterns over long sections. You can do four, + five, six of those sections, and it helps me to + focus over relateive long time. + - I also feel this might be something really + useful. Just haven\'t found a way to incorporate + it into my workflow + - for me it\'s quite simple is I can just use + a simple stopwatch that every 25 minutes + stop and reminde me a rest. I believe + there\'s a lot of fancy clock specialized on + this this type of technique it\'s at the + core of this concept is really not a complex + idea. + - wait, I\'m confused. So, that\'s outside + Emacs right? :-) + - Yes, the concept is outside of + Emacs, but I saw people using this + package. Let me search,: + <https://github.com/marcinkoziej/org-pomodoro> + \<\-- yeah, that one. Maybe I\'ll + have a look, thanks! + - Yeah, it\'s, again, if you\'re + familiar with the sports, it\'s + kind of making your long hard + working, breaking into a small + section, but I feel it\'s, you + have more kind of energy over a + long term, yeah. + - I like Using a weekly GTD log files for my TODO. That way I + can look back at them and not have my GTD to big.

OK, I am at that point where I am not sure any more ;) + it is pretty well integrated to my Doom Emacs, so I am not sure + which one is that\... + +## Notes + +- GNU Hyperbole already supports this with directory-specific quick + access button files (which can be Org files). These can connect to + any number and type of document artifacts, including projects, + repos, directories, etc. You don\'t need to put any code in + dir-locals either. The directory/project-specific tags jumping + (automatically selecting appropriate TAGS files) is also built-in. + Have a look. + - Yes, there\'s clearly a few ways to achieve this. I have a + feeling Hyperbole achieves this, and much more. I wanted to have + something simpler, somehow. (Yes, you seem to have some very + efficient techniques down; maybe you could utilize both). + Thanks for the talk, it was good.
