Nice kitchen dude

It blew my mind; even though I have used Org mode since 2007, I didn't know many of the things you mentioned here.

[@JimmyArogen]

Oh the happiness. Young übermensch prodigy Gavin has released a new video to make my addiction to org-mode even worse. Now if you could just make a video on how to talk to people about org-mode without sounding like a crack-head, that would be great 😅

[@evgeniyvalchev5317]

Yes, Org is so powerful ! Common Lisp (SBCL) and Racket too :) Many thanks for these videos!

[@GavinFreeborn]

My pleasure! Happy I could help

[@ИванИванов-й1ж3ю]

Thanks for this video. Saw lots of interesting things.

[@GavinFreeborn]

Happy you enjoyed it

Org is so powerful, thanks for this video!

[@stepheneglen8705]

Nice overview, thank you. May I ask how you get the special 'kanban' view in your agenda? I'm not able to see how to set that up. (The closest I found was the org-kanban package, but that seems to be outside of the agenda).

[@GavinFreeborn]

It's simply an agenda entry I created. It should be in the show notes

[@maxfriis]

You asked for ideas. I don't like the readability of the long strings in your templates. I suggest you do as I have done and backtick the parenthesis to be able to split the strings up with ,(concat... At every I then start a new string on the next line. It will make the code easier to read and understand.

[@GavinFreeborn]

Thanks for the feedback. I really should have done this sooner.

[@EliasX962]

nice video, thanks! Mic also sounds mega, which mic do you use under linux ?

[@GavinFreeborn]

Thank you, it's just a blue yeti.

How do you update or synchronize your org files outside of your computer? Maybe with your phone? Edit: Oh woops, you start talking about that at some point.

[@GavinFreeborn]

Syncing for orgzly is done with syncthing which I may have forgotten to mention

[@wrburdick]

org-roam might improve your productivity even more...

[@bobkoss280]

Check out Cal Newport's latest book - Slow Productivity.

[@GavinFreeborn]

I'll look it up, thanks for the recommendation.

[@SFDestiny]

You have ADHD? But you spend 8.5min simply pitching the use of Org Mode! 😄

[@GavinFreeborn]

Any planner and note taking goes a long way in helping manage the pain points I run into with ADHD
