The original title is "Building a Two-Tier Content Pipeline for Building in Public"
Original: I had a blog with no pipeline feeding it
Short summary
A founder describes building a two-tier content pipeline to sustain a 'building in public' blog: a one-minute daily capture step logging raw bullets after each work session, and a weekly distill step that turns one angle into a polished post. The system uses Obsidian's Bases feature to maintain per-project build logs with an auto-aggregating view, and embeds the capture step into an existing end-of-session checklist ritual. The key insight is that habits survive when they're steps in existing routines rather than standalone reminders.
