Joe Is Focused on Depth I’m Still Focused on Margin
by
Joe Casabona is focusing on depth this year. My theme last year was supposed to be space/margin as in I needed more of it. Sitting here on January 3, I failed pretty bad at it. I’m feeling more stressed lately and like I have less control of my time. It comes down to a few

If You Don’t Trust Your Employees to Work Remotely Why Did You Hire Them?
by
Good article in Quartz about working remotely and the productivity benefits you can have. I’ll admit, that you do have to be focused and strict about your time at home though. Building software for startups is a huge challenge. Not because writing the software itself is that hard, but most startups have managed to create

Overparenting Backfired
by
My thoughts align with this video on over parenting. I’m the dad at the park that sits as far away as possible reading a book really only paying attention to the 3-year-old. I’ve even had other parents chastise me for my very hands off approach. I’m working hard to let my kids be out doing

by
Decent round up of the waterproofness of the Powerbeats Pro, Galaxy Buds, and AirPods. I have the Powerbeats Pro and have found over the last few months that if they’re damp at all it’s a pain to get them charging. In fact, the charging situation with them has been the biggest pain in the but.

From Harry McCracken via The Loop A PC is a personal computer, and a personal computer is any digital device you use to create, collaborate, and communicate. I find that I can perform all three tasks most efficiently on my iPad. I’m glad we finally got to an era where that just makes me a

Peter McKinnon Pursue What Interests You
by
Don’t be afraid to pursue what interests you. I always think that a good thing to remember is that: Just because you became known for one thing doesn’t mean you have to always fill that role. I used to write mostly about freelance, now it’s way more about iPad stuff and some productivity. In the
