Watson reminds me of Timewarrior. https://taskwarrior.org/docs/timewarrior/
Hi! Julien, I am a co-author of crick/watson. You are totally right, and you're not the first one to mention it. Note that some people have integrated taskwarrior with Watson, see https://github.com/yloiseau/watson-utils#on-modify-watsonpy Best.

Do you mean this? http://orgmode.org/ Can you track time with it?
Hi! I am Will, co-author of the blog post and tool(s). A long time ago, we asked our intern to develop a time tracker as a CLI, given that we spend most of our time in the terminal and also to give him something fun to do. He designed a great time tracker that we now use daily: Watson ( https://github.com/TailorDev/Watson ). Our business involves billing clients per days (7h a day). Watson was our source of truth but…
Hi Will, I've been using this today to track my hours and really dig the simplicity in Watson on the CLI and clean UI in Crick. I don't bill hourly but I'm interested to track how I'm spending my time. It'll be interesting to see if anything emerges over time. One thing I haven't been able to figure out is after syncing to Crick, how can I delete a project from there?

Thanks for the kind words!

We are aware of it, and we do not have a solution yet. We built Crick in a week so we had to cut corners... We focused on the happy path. Things will get better in the future (as we use these tools).

They said half of Org mode. It might be the other half that's actually the important part. :)

Yes indeed you can "clock in" to your Todos as you work on them, and then generate a "clock table" to see what time you've spent where.
