Just created a step by step audio flow for this if anyone is interested, great way to actually do it:

For sure here they are (3 flow for three stages of a project planning meeting)
Initiate: https://share.autopilot.ooo/r79vdcnQZZhVXUga8
Ideate: https://share.autopilot.ooo/N1awqiJWw3bnofrL6
Strategize: https://share.autopilot.ooo/aCQWUxGYyYDPqw9w6
These flows are all somewhat specific to my hackathon but you could definitely general case them by changing out specifics and names for any project you need to kick off.

Hello, Evan here, creator of newDay, but NOT the creator of the "Justice in June" 30 day course for becoming a better ally. I want to be clear about that. That was created by some awesome people and can be found directly here: https://cutt.ly/ayNiPTK
What I did do though, was spend the past week building a feature into my app that let's you quickly and easily schedule these 10min/day sessions and even if you aren't a newDay user, you can export to GCal!
It's an important time particular for those of us who are not Black to stand with the Black community and use whatever platforms we have to amplify the message.

Thanks for that thought.

Hey HN,
A few months ago I started an experiment called “hacker time,” living on alternatives to the 24-hour clock. The system that won divided the waking day into 10 blocks of 100 minutes each. It is like a metric system for time that starts when I wake up at 0.00 and ends at 9.99 when I should be sleeping.
Throughout quarantine I’ve been building newDay, a calendar/planner that uses this system. Here are a few things you can do with it:
- Set up hourly intentions for each of the 10 newHours (takes me <10 min each night).
- Monitor weather / sun level data throughout the day
- Navigate with vim-like hotkeys
- Import/Export from Google calendar
Many of today’s tech companies have an abusive relationship with their users’ attention and data. newDay strives to earn your usage by helping guide you on the path you choose while holding your time, attention, and data as sacred.
I am committed to transparency when it comes to the use of your data. You can use newDay in an anonymous cookie-only mode. More details here: https://newdaynew.me/privacy. I know there is still room for improvement and I welcome community feedback.
newDay has helped me build a fulfilling life while quarantined, and I hope that it works well for you, too. All thoughts, feedbacks, rants, and nitpicks are welcome.
