With the help of Be Focused I cranked out the Pomodoro sessions today. Achieved everything I wanted to, and more. It’s satisfying to end the day with a high productivity quotient.

I’m experimenting to see if I can eliminate my use of Bear, moving its notes into DEVONthink Pro. This would save me a subscription charge and lessen the “within which app did I save that information?” problem.

I’ve done my bit for quality journalism: I bought an annual subscription to Crikey plus their bonus offering at the moment: 3-month subscriptions to The Monthly and The Saturday Paper.

Work has generously provided me with a Linkedin Learning (formerly Lynda) account. So now, on what should I educate myself?

I had the opportunity to tour Google’s Sydney HQ today. An interesting environment, but not one I’d enjoy working in day in, day out.

I ran the thought experiment as to which new Apple computer I would buy to replace my 2013 MacBook Pro. End result: wait for the next release of the iMac which will feature a T2 chip amongst its upgrades, and use my current iPad Pro as my laptop.

Using my iPhone 8+ with a Microsoft foldable keyboard at a coffee shop, writing in Ulysses, is an extremely pleasant way of working.

My first Raspberry Pi project has been successful. I’ve got Pi-Hole running as a network-level ad blocker benefiting every device on my network while also having my Google WiFi pucks apply their ‘adult site’ blocking.
