if it's just your own computer, the goal is to organize so that you can
access what you need easily. under-categorization makes finding the
right thing difficult; over-categorization makes finding the right thing
tedious.

~/projects/programming/utilities/c/actual_project
vs
~/projects/actual_project

only sub-categorize whenever it's actually warranted, otherwise you are
just adding extra access and organization time. for having fun on
computers, i have ~/fun which i use as a sandbox and then send elsewhere
or delete the stuff when it's unwieldy. generally, music can be
organized like ~/music/genre/album/song.flac

as for calendars and such, it is easier to plan less so your life isn't
needlessly complicated.
