I don’t think it is so binary. If there is more friction to communicate with me I expect to hear from people less often. As an example, my friends that only use Discord and not SMS…

That’s a bit uncharitable. It made perfect sense to me. I also learned something about Japanese lacquer.

In the exact same configuration? Yes.

The date of the notice is October 28th. The separation dates given in the letter are 90 days out from the date of the notice (for some technical reasons, some employees had a separ…

The books are also physically really pleasant to hold and look at. I’ve read each book they’ve published and enjoyed them all.

I think they’re saying anyone could order “secure” checks with your account number on them.

Excited to say I worked on this feature! (Standard disclaimer: thoughts and opinions are my own and may or may not be shared by my employer.) To give an idea of the kinds of things…

I haven’t explored that. My intended use case was outbound calls, so I just bought a phone that allows you to switch the ringer off. Rather than specific hours, I would probably ju…

I recently just set this up for my 5 year old. I bought a Grandstream HandyTone 801 as a bridge. I use voip.ms as a service provider. Both are geared toward more technical users, b…

I would also be interested to know how true this is for individual productivity versus group productivity.

Nor was it before the pandemic.

I'll throw in that the hardcover book is absolutely gorgeous and a pleasure to hold and read from.

My solution has been to use iCloud to sync photos to my desktop, but then I just backup the iPhoto directory on my desktop which has all the raw photos in case iCloud goes poof.

I found it useful to set deadlines that force me to prioritize features that add value/functionality. Since for me these are just personal projects, I try to add accountability by …
