A good way that works for me is dumping on a piece of paper what are you open point at the moment you are left, could not be the best (or only way) to handle it but it&#x27;s fine .<p>Eg. Yesterday i&#x27;ve been working on a web form Before to leave: - Check if Button x behave as described by req.1 - Add javascript alert on button y click - Verify that procedure x works for a given impunt<p>Hope this helps

I don&#x27;t turn off my computers. I use Xmonad and have tasks running on different &#x27;desktops&#x27; which I leave open for days&#x2F;weeks. In terms of code, I leave the Emacs sessions running with buffers, repls, etc. open until I logout or reboot.
