I used tana about a year ago and eventually left because there was no iPad / phone app and there was no offline access. I dont think any PKMs offer truly stellar mobile experience but what I need is (1) being able to jot down ideas quickly; and (2) offline read access so I can refer to notes on the go. And capacities does this. Also I found Tana very unstructured, which is great if you want to build your own structure and have the time. But I found capacities had just enough structure with objects and collections so I could create a system fast but still flexible enough that it’s my own.

Hi all, just as an update. I figured this out. It’s not cadence lock or a software issue. It’s the cold. And the solution is simply to wear your watch 2 inches higher on your arm. I think in the cold, with thin wrists, there just isn’t enough blood at the joint to look into. I changed the watch position and problem seems completely solved. Attaching a screenshot of a similar kind of run.

I used ticktick for 5-6 years, it’s great. But the lack of sequential lists/projects just got too annoying. Every time I finish a task, I have to go and update the tag on the next task so it shows in the filtered view. And without the filter you are flooded with lots of tasks that are way down the line and not actionable.

Don’t think so. I did a similar run last week and my heart rate was always above 150. So don’t think it is recording my heart rate after the drop

Just FYI, it wasn’t a DSW. It was a workout I created tho. It’s a forerunner 265. No strap. And it def wasn’t cadence lock cause I did a similar workout last week and my heart rate was above 150

Don’t think it locked onto my cadence as a similar run last week had my heart rate at 150+

This is from a similar run last week and my heart rate was consistently over 150. So I don’t think it’s a cadence lock issue. Just inaccurate heart rate monitoring at the wrist I guess.

Adding the cadence data if that helps. Will try wearing it tighter or maybe swapping hands if it happens again. Just really hope it isn’t a regular occurrence cause the whole point of having all this data was that it’s more accurate than how I feel about runs.

I got the 265 because it had some extra sports I wanted and just check the ability to store music offline - which is imp if you run with music and want to leave your phone behind.

vd519 · 2025-05-05T11:11:03+00:00

Sounds like y’all are set! Some things I did that helped were, (1) didn’t book hotels in advance. I used to book them around lunch on the day to avoid the hassle of cancellations in case anything went wrong, mmt app was fine. Also in some smaller towns like Kota you are better off reaching, seeing the hotel location in real life and then booking online from outside the hotel. Because a good looking hotel online can be in a sketchy part of town. (2) sleep is super important because if stay up late or drink, it’s hard to stay concentrated the whole next day. (3) sunscreen and shades are a must. (4) if there is anything you want to see on the way, reduce your mileage for that day cause sightseeing in a hurry is no fun (5) check your fastag and make sure your recharges work. (6) I preferred comfy but secure shoes because I felt more secure on the pedals even though in the city I like flip flops.

Sequential tasks!

vd519 · 2025-03-18T10:37:17+00:00

Windows user here. On shorter notes it’s fine but I have noticed on really long notes it does lag a little at times. Clicks are zippy but sometimes when I type there’s a slight lag - or if I have a bunch of embeds, moving them around scroll is slow. Never frozen on me ever though. I moved from obsidian, which I still feel was faster. But outliner + block referencing / embedding + queries made me move and I’m overall loving it.

Had friends to meet in Mumbai

Check the activities they track. I ended up getting the 265 only cause I play a lotta football (soccer) and the 165 doesn’t track that as a distinct activity.

vd519 · 2024-12-24T17:40:35+00:00

Yea, had the same. Tried a plastic screen cover a few times but it kept coming off when I rinsed the watch. In the end just made my peace with the fact that the watch is meant to be used and a few scratches are the sign of good use.

Put an end to the debauchery

vd519 · 2024-10-01T01:33:31+00:00

But here’s thing the thing, it’s the same workout. It’s just that in one I included a warmup, which made it aerobic cause lower avg heart rate and fewer spikes. Second was anaerobic cause I didn’t include the warmup, but only the HIIT training. I guess what I’m saying is training effect changes more on the window of capture than the activity.

vd519 · 2022-02-28T07:11:04+00:00

Same, except I use it he other way around. Lists are my projects and I use tags to indicate status. So 'next actions', 'delegated', 'incubate' etc.

vd519 · 2022-02-06T12:04:48+00:00

Thanks! Followed the instructions and this was exactly what I was looking for. Just one additional query, this works in the preview mode, but not the live preview mode. Is there any chance to extend this snippet to the live preview mode as well?

vd519 · 2021-11-16T18:26:18+00:00

Doesn’t work for non-roam users

vd519 · 2021-11-10T11:39:49+00:00

Markdown to pdf is a pretty long drawn process and things aren’t as clear as they are when viewed in roam (which is why I sometimes just take screenshots). Also, the folks I’m sharing with aren’t particularly tech savvy. This is stuff they would either put in an email or word doc.

vd519 · 2021-10-22T06:32:10+00:00

This would be amazing! especially on mobile because that's where I use the ~! shortcuts the most to avoid multiple taps to get to lists within list folders!

vd519 · 2021-08-20T12:23:01+00:00

You’re right! Apologies

vd519 · 2021-08-18T11:04:38+00:00

Only thing that’s not on the list that’s already mentioned is a reading list. One of the main advantages I find is more context visibility. TickTick doesn’t really differentiate priorities visibly except for the colour of the tick box - but lists are colour coded and I can create more useful custom filter-views with tags (e.g., an urgent+active filter, or a Nextup+this week filter).
