I exported all of my personal daily notes from my previous job, taken in Notion, over almost three years. The export was well-structured, but not very nice to look at or edit in a text editor, because each day was exported in its own file. I used fish shell
on the command line to rename the files and directories and combine some of the files.
A further improvement could be to rename the daily notes to be ##-Day
instead of Day-##
so that the days would be in order in the compiled files. I decided to not do this right now since I plan to edit the collated files down to essential summaries of tasks, so the order of the days isn't terribly important. This is all to help me update my LinkedIn/resume description for my past job.
