FOSS Academic

My Workflow

EDIT: Credit where credit is due: I stole many of these ideas from Sean Lawson. Except they are better with FOSS.

The year 2020. Damn. Damn, damn, damn, damn.

Put it in the dumpster, man.

But the end of the worst year ever is also the end of the 2010s, so maybe now's a good time to reflect on my past decade as a FOSS Academic. As I mentioned in the Introduction, I've been using FOSS tools to do my job as a university professor for over a decade. Now, I'm looking ahead to the next decade.

Here, I want to document my workflow. It's a combination of desktop environments, workspace management, weekly planning and long-term goals. I've been developing it over the past decade, and I think it's time I formally document just how I do what I do.

It's a longish post, but then again, we're talking about practice. That gets complex!
