I'm transitioning to being a carpenter of sorts. I think it has a lot in common with design/dev. My dad is a contractor, he's lousy at marketing but manages to stay busy. He likes …

In a world of Chamaths, be a Buffet

Notion is more than I need. 99% of the time I just need to write something down for later.

As an Evernote user, Bending Spoons has been iterating fast over the past couple years to improve the product. It’s much better than it used to be.

I usually agree, but it's fairly high up, the bulb is probably non standard, and it's not clear how to get the top off. Just slightly more work than I'm willing to put in.
