A WEE PLACE TAE STERT
Uise yer ain history as a reference
Name a task an its type, then guess the minutes afore ye stert. Pause for interruptions an finish when the task is done. Uise the same type name for repeated tasks, sic as emails. The rinnin ratio is total recorded time dividit by total estimated time for that type.
Whit this is based on
This is a timing an arithmetic utility, no an assessment o time blindness or ony condition. A ratio o 1.6× means yer recorded tasks took 1.6 times the minutes ye estimated aw thegither. Ae run is just ae observation. Different task sizes, pauses an stoppin rules affect the result; nae gain in accuracy is promised.
A few useful answers
Whit happens during interruptions or if I close the tab?
Pause stops addin time till ye resume. A rinnin timer keeps countin clock time through a reload or a shut tab, sae pause afore ye leave if ye want tae leave oot that time. Timers depend on the device clock an browser; changes tae the system clock can affect them.
Hou is ma rinnin ratio worked oot?
For ilk task type, divide the sum o actual minutes by the sum o guessed minutes. Type names ignore letter case an spaces at the sides. A ratio abuin 1 means recorded tasks took langer aw thegither; ane below 1 means less time. Paused interruptions are left oot. This is yer ain task history, no a comparison wi a population.
