Thinking about creating a work-tracking system again, this time centered more around factors like “do I feel like I have accomplished something today” “was this a mainline task or a side-task” “am I on a roll or am I struggling for hours to complete simple tasks” “how is my morale outside of work” instead of just tracking hours

Me (in 2013): I’m going to assign myself a numerical score based on hours spent working, and percentage of days on which I worked. Surely no further context is needed

Hmmmmm I think the most user-friendly work-tracking system would probably be a collection of intersecting CSS classes, and then you type a single line of HTML to represent a day and its detailsThis would make any summation of individual days into larger trends impossible, except through visual estimation, but I see this as a feature not a bug

Sometimes, all you need to create something useful is just some really clever markup, instead of any scripting

Going to have it mark a day with a little skull-and-crossbones if you exceed 8 hours of work

I'm actually designing this little organizational tool now. Let's do this shit. Now writing like 40 intersecting CSS classes

No JS, no PHP, no scripting language or CSS-compiling language, we're raw-dogging this bastard in service of simplicity and ergonomics

A single HTML element can only be assigned one ::before and one ::after property??? Hmm this makes things trickier

Hmmmm I could just make every heuristic tag into a custom HTML tag... I think that's browser-compatible at this point?? IDK I haven't thought about webdesign for years

@argr the ::before and ::after pseudoelements seem really janky to melike so much shit doesn't work until you include content: ''; and it goes "ohh, you wanted it to exist in some respect, gotcha"

In a way this is like the ultimate fantasy of web 1.0 finally being fulfilled. Maybe I'll roll with it

Hmmmm I think I will have to call some of these via the class="" property, rather than as their own tags, since I want them to style things in addition to including emojis/images. But I've figured out a way to make it doable

Webdesign is my passion,(It's easy to replace the emojis with custom images in this, also)

Basically you type a line of HTML for the day, and it is automatically translated into a series of emoji-or-image heuristic-markers by the stylesheet whenever someone views the page

I finally feel like I have unlocked the actual power of stylesheets: Making annoying-to-type emoji-clusters into less-annoying-to-type "magic phrase" clusters that have mild styling properties also.

I improved how it looks a tad. Also it's pretty customizable. Will probably throw it onto my codeberg in a bit. Already seems like a useful self-management tool imo
