- Forgetting to look at the to-do list -> Make a different to-do list
- Have 10+ to-do lists
- Forgetting what the to-do even refers to
- Discover emacs org mode, it can link everything together -> constantly forget emacs key bindings
- Use logseq/obsidian instead -> forget which names/links refer to projects -> have 10+ aliases referring to different perspectives of the same project
I need static types, logic programming, graph search algorithms, and a bit of AI, to help save me.
Also, it'd be nice if modern software was easier to interface with. Needs more support for deep linking and syncing. The "walled garden" approach is anathema to solutions that can help ADHDers.
- "Forgetting" to look at the calendar, or to-do list, or your phone reminders, or a list written in large letters on a whiteboard behind your desk.
I seem to have a cognitive equivalent of an ad blocker, my mind will literally erase any task list from existence, the moment I start getting even slightly anxious about it. It's like a magic spell - I can put the list in front of my face, and my eyes will just keep glossing over it, like if it was a tear in reality.
More irony:
