It's interesting to read that I'm not the only one doing this. See also my comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11032799 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11032799
I chose the name "ideas" instead of "n-th-priority-tasks" to clearly distinguish this list from actual tasks. Because they aren't. None of those entries deserves to be named "task", until one starts to get serious about them and creates a prototype. And this will happen only to a tiny fraction of those entries.
- stared 11y agoThe title may be misleading (actually, I remember it is "n-th-priority-things.md"). I've just checked its heading (I keep this file always open) and it's "n-th prority ideas". I read your comment before posting my own. :) When it comes to their length and (what is more important) being specified, it varies a lot. From a blog post I have in mind and can write in a few hours, to things that make take months or years. I was thinking about making it public, but: - most of them are idiosyncratic and a few words stands for a long idea, - I am afraid of self-censorship (is it good enough for the public? doesn't it sound offensive?). When it comes to tasks-ideas separation, it reminds me of http://www.phdcomics.com/comics/archive/phd073010s.gif http://www.phdcomics.com/comics/archive/phd073010s.gif (I used to have to do bullets which were there for years - and they were causing so much pain).
