  • Life of a Klansman by Edward Ball

    Life of a Klansman by Edward Ball

    by

    One thing I’ve been trying to confront is how the generational legacy of being white helps me out all the time. With that in mind I picked up Life of a Klansman by Edward Ball because it investigates the authors roots in the KKK in New Orleans[^1]. Ball uses this book to investigate how white…

  • Raising Empowered Daughters by Mike Adamick

    Raising Empowered Daughters by Mike Adamick

    by

    I got into this book shortly after reading A Brief History of Misogyny by Jack Holland. While I expected some connection in the books, I didn’t expect that Raising Empowered Daughters by Mike Adamick would be a strong anti-misogyny book. I expected tips on how to raise my daughters, not a book that thoroughly challenged…

  • Paul Graham on Disagreeing

    by

    [Written in 2008 Paul Graham](http://paulgraham.com/disagree.html) writes eloquently about levels of disagreeing. It would be great to say that we all rose to his highest level of disagreement, where we dig into the central argument and refute it. Unfortunately most online disagreement, almost all of it in fact, hits the lowest denominator. Name calling. Of course…

  • Migrate Your Notes from Obsidian to Craft

    Migrate Your Notes from Obsidian to Craft

    by

    Craft is a newish note taking application that is appealing strongly to those in the Apple ecosystem. It’s especially appealing if you’re a heavy iPad user because the native iPad app is excellent. Because I’m iPad first I wanted to check it out and see if it was worth moving to from Obsidian, which has…

  • Dealing with Task Overwhelm

    by

    If you find yourself staring down a day with way too many tasks in it, then this is a good way to deal with them. I think that the truth is, you have a bigger problem though because you let this happen in the first place. If you’ve done your weekly review, and daily reviews…

    Tarah Pro Headphones by Jaybird – Reviewed

    by

    I’ve had a love/hate relationship with Jaybird products. The first pair of headphones they ever released worked for years in all conditions. They easily handled 6 hours in the pouring rain or bushwhacking in the mountains. My wife still uses a pair of their first generation headphones many times a week running and they work…

  • Reset by Ronald J Deibert

    Reset by Ronald J Deibert

    by

    While many other books tackle your personal digital life, Reset doesn’t take this approach to the subject. Instead Ronald Deibert looks at the overall tech ecosystem to see it’s impact on society as a whole. The purpose of this book is to synthesize what Deibert sees as an emerging consensus about the problems that relate…
