Making long talks fit a commute

Описание и применение

Автор создал систему хранения аудио‑версий длинных лекций, которые можно слушать во время поездки, сокращая их до наиболее полезных частей.

Задача

Long talks are too long for desk viewing and too short to justify a flight, leading to many saved videos that are never watched.

Результат

The author now has a manageable set of audio talks that can be listened to during commutes, improving content consumption and reducing wasted time.

Рабочий процесс

• Identify talks worth replaying
• Download audio from video sources
• Rename files with a consistent naming pattern
• Transfer audio files to phone
• Listen to each audio at slightly faster speed
• Delete any audio that does not hold up
• Maintain a queue of finished talks

Доказательства

I only keep audio, and I only keep the ones I would replay.

Источник

First, treating audio as the default. A conversation, a lecture, a recorded interview — if it survives being audio-only, it was worth keeping in the first place.
