Systems Check for Conduit Q1 2025

Thu, 20 Feb 2025 01:54:00 -0000

Unfortunately we had several things get in the way this quarter so we did a mini systems-check in our post show. If you want to get second topics with each conduit become a member of Conduit.

This transcription was generated how I transcribe all episodes(Generated with whisper and not updated for correctness - though I will accept PRs to correct them).

I then used Claude 3.5 sonnet passing in the portion of the transcription concerning the mini-systems-check.

Kathy's Mini Update

Kathy still uses OmniFocus for personal task management and her notebook for bullet journaling

She's using her Sidekick notepad less because it gets bent when her arms hit it.

My (much longer) Update

I mentioned that Robb Knight (former guest) started bullet journaling recently and talked about that on some episodes of Ruminate.

I send Robb live reactions to his podcast Ruminate episodes. I also do this with Brett and Jeff from time-to-time with Overtired

I'm using my Hobonichi planner (the "day free" cousin version) more consistently this year. I'm concerned about running out of space since I've already used a third of it, averaging 1-2 pages per day. I'll likely get a second one halfway through the year or get one of the half-year jawns.

As far as apps go I'm using discusses "- Up Ahead (for countdowns/reminders) and Reader (by Silvio Rizzi).

I mentioned this in a microblog post, I tried to import 400+ podcast subscriptions into Reader, causing the app to crash. He reduced it to 250, then 100, but still had issues.

Normally, we do our systems-check on the 2nd episode of the 2nd month of each quarter.

I hope you can catch our normal episodes every two weeks on Thursday.
