My glance at the Idea Bucket only worked by luck. The Taskwarrior +LATEST virtual tag is for the latest task in the system, not just the latest in the filter. I want the newest report, which lists tasks by freshness, then limit: to control the number of tasks reported.

Code Sample 
    $ task '(+idea or +learn)' newest limit:1

ID  Created    Age Mod Project Tags     Description
180 2019-07-02 19h 19h Site    idea ops automate permalink switches
                                          2019-07-02 for when I do a mass change, create aliases of old form

54 tasks, 1 shown

Okay right. I threw some new ideas in the last few days. Better set a higher limit.

Code Sample 
    $ task '(+idea or +learn)' newest limit:3

ID  Created    Age Mod Project Tags             Description

I stole a great idea

Picasso’s studio circa 1912

via Art Observed

probably not Picasso:

Good artists copy; great artists steal.

I like this form better – from the article linked above.

TS Eliot, “The Sacred Woord: Essays on Poetry and Criticism”:

Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal; bad poets deface what they take, and good poets make it into something better, or at least something different.

All this is besides the point. When jmac writes a blog post, he shares it on his Twitter account. Then he puts the tweet link in the blog post, encouraging folks to share or reply via the tweet.

I stole that for here.
