If AI is the hammer, do we have the right nails?

Analogue Productivity - is this book bullshit?

Inger is in town, so Jason took her to a pod casting studio as a treat for episode 80 (can you believe it?!). The sound is very nice on this one folks, but This is a Studio in Prahran can take ALL the credit.There's a fair bit in the mai...

Hi Inger and Jason! This is a new and exciting way to contact you. I have a work problem. I am a researcher working at a nonprofit but I am academic adjacent. I do many projects with academics all over the place. If everyone I worked with was in our "family" I could easily solve my problem in MS Teams using the planner app with a kanban board. The issue is that I'm working with lots of groups of people in different iterations who work in different environments. I have so many projects all with notes and documents in different places. I want a central place to manage everything that I can share with team members. But to be able to adjust permissions about who can see what. Because all the people in Team A doing project A don't need to see all the things for project B (which some of them are part of but not all of them). This is a roundabout way of asking, how can you manage multiple projects with multiple people in different universities (all with different systems)? Is this possible? Much nerdy love, Alessa Teunisse (turn-iss-ah) (Your bujo loving friend 😊)
