My personal solution is so much more simple than this shitbowl solution and is trivial to implement. I have been using it for years and can personally vouch for it's effectiveness and scalability.
Skip the bowl entirely.
When you finish with something just set it down. It really DOES NOT MATTER WHERE! Honestly.
Set it on a flat surface, under a chair or a pillow, in a depression in your yard. Set it on your neighbor's side of the fence. It is totally irrelevant where you leave it.
Since it is universally true that you always find something in the last place that you look this method that I have employed works perfectly EVERY SINGLE TIME and for objects of any physical description.
It is impossible to lose something if you are willing to spend sufficient time and effort remembering where you put it and revisiting that location.
- lvs 6y agoDo you blog?
- doodlebugging 6y agoNo. I post a bit on reddit and HN from time to time.
- pessimizer 6y agoSounds like NoSQL. I've heard it speeds up development.
- yesenadam 6y agoI read an much improved version of this, I forget where: Put things back in the first place you looked, or the first place you would look for it.
