We can make this file beautiful and searchable if this error is corrected: It looks like row 2 should actually have 4 columns, instead of 2. in line 1.

Joe's Public To-do List

As part of a commitment to personal transparency I’m making my personal to-do list publicly and permanently accessible here.

You can read about the reasons why and the benefits at the blog post I did.

I'm using the todo.txt format, you can read about it here

Priority is set based on integrity. You can read more about my prioritisation at this blog post.

As a shorthand, the levels are these:
