My general workflow was:
- Be out. - Think of idea. - Make a note on my phone. - Hopefully remember to look at it later. (Rarely happened)
but now it's:
- Be out. - Think of idea. - Kick off coding / creative / research agent to do whatever I’m thinking of. - Review when I’m home.
Why make a note when you can just as easily start doing the thing?
So today I put it to the test and decided to see how much dev work I could get done while on a run.
My workflow: Kick off an initial task, head out on the trails, whenever I got to a shady spot, check the tasks, merge the ones with passing tests, and start new tasks as needed.
End results:
~5 miles through the Boise foothills. ~550ft elevation gain. - 7 development tasks kicked off. - 4 pull requests reviewed and merged.
Development tasks initiated, developed, and merged while on the run:
