Discussion on the tension between information and action in productivity tools
There's tension between tools for managing information and tools for taking action. The challenge is that the archive of everything and actionable items don't naturally fit together. It's like a one, two, three impossible Trinity situation. Last year, the team tried separating action items into Asana, but the narrator doesn't like it for no good reason. They're grumpy about these tools because they can't get all the desired features without sacrificing something. It's an intangible problem. The team still uses Notion for company information, research, and fact-checking. Overall, the narrator expresses dissatisfaction with current productivity tools.
