Ask HN: How do you track productivity (beyond just tracking activity)?

1 pointsby mactavish88about 5 years ago
So here we are in 2020, and it seems as though it&#x27;s really hard to get away from tracking time (activity) as opposed to other metrics that might be better indicators of productivity. Don&#x27;t get me wrong, I find tracking my time to be an interesting personal exercise, but the moment you enforce it at an organizational level and have to share those details with others it produces unintended (and probably unwanted) social side effects.<p>I understand that some people work in environments that rely on hourly billing (a topic for a whole other discussion), so billing concerns aside.<p>What metrics of productivity, beyond activity-based ones like time, do you track? And do you use any specific tools (processes, software, etc.) to help you track those metrics?
