"Keeping a record: working across many sessions"

Community description: "The day after the founding session I opened a short session that didn't touch the product: it defined how sessions are named, recorded and closed, so I could work across many of them without losing what the previous one had decided. I went back to that file to see what survived of that design and why the date of this post was decided that night."

Automated excerpt

A naming format, YYYYMMDD-VNN_nombre: the date, a counter that restarts at V01 every day, and a goal in two or three words. Day one, which I covered in the previous post, exists as a session because day two wrote it down. The fourth session of the day has the same identifier as the third: the "most recent file" heuristic failed the very day it was written, with two sessions opened almost at once.
