The Full-Stack Freelancer Can Deep Work
by
In Tiago Forte’s article, [The Rise of the Full-Stack Freelancer](https://fortelabs.co/blog/the-rise-of-the-full-stack-freelancer/), I think he makes an error when it comes to deep work. > It’s trendy now to proclaim the universal superiority of “deep work.” We’re advised to lock out all distractions and interruptions, fixate completely on one project at a time, and optimize for long,
Is Reeder 4 the Best iPadOS RSS Client?
by
Today my journey to look at RSS clients means we’re stopping with Reeder, which was my go to RSS client for a while back in Reeder 3 days[^1]. One of the biggest features that puts Reeder above other options is it’s integration with services not of the RSS variety. Specifically if you use Instapaper, Pocket,
Two Starting Points for Fatherhood
by
I just finished editing a piece on how despite knowing I wanted to be a father since my late teens, I didn’t fall in love with my children right away. I stood there holding my first kid and felt nothing outside of what I generally feel about babies. They’re cute and I like snuggling them.
11 Or 12.9 iPad Pro?
by
[Ryan Christoffel did an experiment using both the 11” and 12.9” iPad Pro to see which one was the “best” size](https://www.macstories.net/stories/my-11-inch-ipad-pro-experiment/).

Inspecting Web Pages With iPadOS
by
When I started making my iPad my main computer one big hurdle was inspecting the source code on web pages. Yes iCab had an option, but it was janky and barely worked. Then I looked at WebTools, which was leaps and bounds better but still wasn’t great. Today I’m going to talk a bit about
NetNewsWire for iOS and macOS Review
by
When I started with a Mac around 10 years ago one of the first things I needed to find was a good RSS client and the top one at the time was clearly [NetNewsWire](https://ranchero.com/netnewswire/).

We live in a world in which business operates 24/7, the global economy never stops, and competition is relentless. And even if you can become productive enough to finish early, customers and bosses still expect you to be available at all hours.[^1].
