Hemispheric Views Mentioned in the Wild
Sunday, May 30, 2021
What an honour for the podcast Hemispheric Views I create together with Jason and Martin to be included in Michael Camilleri’s podcast queue. Podcasts I’m Listening To: Spring 2021: Hemispheric Views: Did we need another three-white-guys-talk-about-Apple podcast? Probably not but the difference here is that two of the hosts are Australian. Andrew Canion, Jason Burk and Martin Feld have a great rapport and listening to a tech podcast with more of an international focus is a refreshing change.
Following the example set by @Burk, I too have expunged TextExpander from my macOS life. The shortcuts I need now live in Keyboard Maestro. Jason put his in Alfred.
My kingdom for a good mouse that works with macOS. Logitech MX Master 3 - garbage drivers cause lag all over the place. Razer Viper Ultimate - doesn’t work with macOS. Apple Magic Mouse - ergonomic hell. Why is this so hard?
Solve-A-Mystery Games by Society of Curiosities looks like it could be fun. Thanks @Burk for the recommendation.
Contributing members of Hemispheric Views received their special One Prime Plus bonus podcast content today. If you’re curious what you’re missing out on, check out oneprimeplus.com.
I’ve also enabled Tap to Click on the iPad Magic Keyboard. The civilised way to click on all Apple trackpad devices.
I’ve remapped the Caps Lock key to be Escape on my new iPad Magic Keyboard. That seems much more useful.
Finished reading: Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport. 📚 Some good ideas that fortunately I’ve already implemented but the book has encouraged me to take it further.
Stickers! @hemisphericviews @manton @burk @martinfeld
Finished reading: The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable by Nassim Nicholas Taleb 📚 An interesting book that draws heavily on Thinking, Fast and Slow: Kahneman, Daniel which I also recommend you read. We humans need to apply back-stories to stochastic events in an effort to make sense of the world. This makes events logical and explicable to our mind. Yet if they were so logical, why would we have not predicted them?
Installing macOS apps from the Terminal with brew install appname is so much quicker and easier than browsing to a website, finding the download, messing with the .dmg, deleting the .dmg… I love it.
This looks to be an interesting podcast @jean @Burk overcast.fm
A fresh cut for the little guy. All ready for school photos this week.
The @hemisphericviews empire has grown to include an Apple Music playlist featuring favourite songs from your three hosts, @martinfeld @Burk. Sorry Spotify listeners - we can’t help you.
How good does this look? @vincent @hemisphericviews
Oh no. I’ve got a bung eye. 👁💥

The Neuroscience of Busyness - Study Hacks - Cal Newport: You want more out of your employees? Radically reduce their responsibilities, then leave them alone to execute. You want your small business to grow? Focus your attention on a single target, and give yourself the space to do it better. This sounds right to me.
