Simon Sinek on Social Media and Addiction
by
https://youtu.be/3ev7GXzFTPg I think the “Millennial” thing makes many roll their eyes when they look at videos/blog posts/stuff like this. I do like the bent towards Science and dopamine. I’m happy that I’ve mostly disengaged from social media. Have you thought about your use of Social Media this way? Are you going to do anything about…
Colour and Bullet Journal
by
The thing I like about this Bullet Journal is the colour. I do my weekly plan by colour so I know what’s going on. If you want to see how I do Bullet Journal, and organize my whole system around going analogue, then you can read about it in Analogue Productivity.
Better Blocker keeps you private
by
Better Blocker updated for iOS 12 and macOS Mojave. I use it on iOS and since I’m iOS first that’s mostly what matters for me. So much tracking and you can stop a bunch of it with Better Blocker
If you’re wondering about new iPhones
by
Then The Sweet Setup has a review. I still don’t think that the new iPhones provide much value though. Certainly not over $1000 of value. So that leaves me maybe looking at Android. Unfortunately it seems I may have to spend a bunch just to get a phone where they keep up with security updates…
Apple Watch Series 4 – Why Not Just Disconnet?

by
This post on DEVONthink and Notebooks as an alternative to Evernote got me thinking again about what I do. Here is a quick rundown of what I tried. DEVONthink for iOS and macOS I tried this and there is so much to love about it. The “trial” mode felt really weird at first, but in…

As I work on paper I look forward to the day I have a stack like this.
Is Social Media Worth My Time?
by
In my reading recently I came across the three articles linked below all of which have me thinking about the hamster wheel that we all participate in to some extent. This is the hamster wheel of content creation. Image/brand building. Showing our life off to others in an effort to … what? I’ve been killing…
Should we revamp work day to match school days?
by
They at least start to ask that question well here. But then they fail by saying that we should be moving a school day to work with a work day. We should be moving a work day to align with what we have for a school day now. We work way too many hours as…
