# One effective CS grad student workflow
Greg Coladonato



[[!inline pages="internal(2021/info/cs-schedule)" raw="yes"]]

When I was an undergrad, I learned many things, most of
which I forgot. In the time since then, I've discovered Org Mode, Org
Roam, Org Noter, Org Ref. PDF Tools, and Anki. I would like to share
my approach for capturing all the information that comes my way as a
MS CS student at Georgia Tech, in the hopes that I can both get
feedback on ways to improve the system I use, as well as hopefully
inspire others to build workflows that make them more productive.

# Discussion

IRC nick: gcoladon

- gcoladon: Yes it was software called ThoughtManager which ran on my Palm Treo 680 
- a similar workflow for videos using timestamps would be quite interesting
- this is a sweet script, surely it should be possible to write in elisp though...
- i know there exists the anki-editor package that works pretty well
  - gcoladon: Yeah I am going to explore anki-editor sometime. It would be much better than my sed script :)
- how to get started? this is a great workflow
  - gcoladon: not sure how to help people get started with this workflow, but I am happy to work on such a thing 
- This is a workflow I really do like. Well done!
- interesting on the custom id approach, I stick a timestamp on nearly every heading that I create, but I never thought to make it a custom id
- gcoladon: I haven't tried to make my config sharable yet 

# Outline

-   5-10 minutes: Go through some typical workflows associated with being a grad student, using the packages mentioned in the abstract.

# Personal information

- Name pronunciation: the syllables of my last name should be easy enough to pronounce for English speakers; the accentuation is colado-NA-to 
- Preferred contact info: gmail account gcoladon
