Now that I've added the ‘org-table’ face to ‘yoshi-theme’[1] I can enable the
mode again and not be bothered by misaligned tables.

Right now this doesn't seem to work at all... It works fine when I evaluate this
using ‘eval-defun’ or ‘eval-last-sexp’, but when I try to byte-compile it
doesn't work.
I've added my own custom macro that expands to the same thing that
‘(setf (map-elt ...) ...)’ should. I have forgotten how to write macros properly
so I may have made some mistakes.
This should only be temporary until I figure out why this is happening... it
might just be that I'm using a version of Emacs built from a faulty commit.
This way archives don't keep growing indefinitely and opening the archive
doesn't load every single language I've ever used because there are code blocks
in there.
Instead of adding a lot of tags and adding a lot of agendas filtering on them
I'm experimenting with using org-edna to make certain contexts a dependency of a
task to filter them out of my todo list.
Current contexts I'm experimenting with are:
- ‘day-of-week?’ to filter out tasks that I can only do on certain days.
- ‘night-time?’ to filter out anything that I can't do in the evening. Usually
having to do with contacting others.
- ‘business-hours?’ to filter out anything that is outside of a certain
timezone's “business hours”, defined by me as anywhere between 9am and 6pm.
Instead specify a width for the column and shrink the table. This way it still
gets truncated, but it can be expanded and the whole text is in the column.
These function help me make sure that I'm properly going through both files. The
command ‘oni-org-run-through-inbox’ will first dump any items in the tickler
file that are relevant for today and then it goes through each item in my inbox
and asks me to take an action on them.
This helps me both go through my inbox more easily, but also helps me keep track
of the items in my tickler file, which has been something I keep forgetting to
look at.
The ‘oni-org-dump-tickler’ command should be idempotent, so calling it multiple
times per day shouldn't mess with the different dates in the file. If it
discovers that the current day isn't the same as today it keeps going through
the tickler file, dumping any tasks it finds into the inbox, until it finds the
right day number. It's not aware of any of the months, so it'll happily move to
the next month if your tickler file is in the wrong state. Also if your tickler
file hasn't been updated in more than a month it also doesn't understand that it
needs to keep going and will keep presenting you with old tasks.
Automatically generated colors for todo keywords and tags using an MD5 hash will
produce a completely random color, frequently not fitting well at all within my
chosen color theme. Using the LCh color space and keeping the L(uminance) and
C(hroma) constant will produce colors that fit together much metter, and the
values have been picked to work well with ‘yoshi-theme’.
This change was inspired by “Arbitrary Beautiful Colors”[1].

- ‘oni-org-increment-property’: A generic command that increments a numeric org
property
- ‘oni-org-pomodoro-add-note’: A command that adds a note to the org item
logbook that states a pomodoro was completed.
- ‘oni-org-pomodoro-times’: A function that parses an org item logbook to figure
out at what times a pomodoro had been completed for that particular task.
- ‘oni-org-pomodoro-times-for-date’: A function that finds the times a pomodoro
has been marked as completed for a specified date.
- ‘oni-org-archive-old-tasks’: Unrelated to the other functions, just a command
that archives all of the tasks that have been closed in the previous month.

This is meant to be used as a daily overview of the Pomodoro's that I've gone
through during the day. Should be put in my journal. For that reason, and
because I haven't figured out how to make it idempotent on days that aren't
today, I've added an exclusion of ‘journal.org’ to the
‘oni-org-update-all-dblocks-live’ function.
This commit fixes the issue that project tasks found in the archive of the org
file can't be accessed through the link that's been generated. This fixes that.
I've removed the hierarchy from my tags, so now I need to see any for the tag of
the current host name, any computer, and any emacs tasks that have a state of
TODO.
