@aaronpk The short answer is that priority is for projects and up-next is for administrivia. So, for example, when I do a weekly review, I’ll prioritize working on three projects for the coming week, and I’ll add a next tag to a few tasks on single action lists (e.g. “drop off the rent cheque”, “make haircut appointment”, “clean the barbecue”).

The long answer is that I should write a blog post. 😅

@aaronpk Yeah, what I’ve settled on for tasks in OmniFocus is three binary axes: priority/not-priority, due/not-due, up-next/backlog. So far so good. 👍

@aaronpk I like your custom filter, but I think I have to expand the due-date horizon slightly, since even when something is due today I often need a day or two to do the work to complete it.

@aaronpk @cygnoir I’d be very interested in how you differentiate p1 from p2 and p3! I’ve never had a solid rubric for that.

@aaronpk This addresses something I have been struggling with for quite a while! Do you refrain from adding priority to tasks that are due on a particular day, or do you still add priority?

Disappointed that Ghost created a custom posting API instead of adopting Micropub, which is a W3C recommendation. It’s okay to have Ghost-only APIs as long as you start with standards as a baseline. Now we have fragmented client apps.

Just gave a fun little talk at the #writethedocs PDX 2019 unconference: Storytelling with Git.

I’d love some suggestions of other events or contexts that might be a good place for this talk!

BTW #writethedocs PDX 2019 is fantastic!

Aaron, Can Granary.io also turn Twitter #topic streams into a feed? I seem to only see examples of personal twitter timeline—>feed. I never look at my timeline really, mostly have #topic columns alerts in my Tweetdeck columns e.g.

Holy shit

@aaronpk That's interesting and kind of weird. I also tend to like black coffee, hoppy beers, strong greens, etc. (and spicy foods, although I would not eat a raw habanero!) -- but cilantro has tasted like soap to me for as long as I can remember, although tempering it with something acidic like a lot of lime juice seems to cut back on the Palmolive a lot.

@aaronpk i'm all for using grid, but <tr> is a 1D row element so there's no real difference w flexbox, is there? you could use align-items: stretch

@aaronpk Can I ask a question? I wannt to set up an Aparature instance. Am I able to follow straight up RSS feeds up there? Want to follow venders and company blogs as well as personal ones. Possible, isn't it?
