Wonderful book.

Does anyone have a good alternative to PDF Expert for annotating PDFs? I just need/want something that allows me to use the Apple Pencil to annotate, and opens documents from iCloud using Open in Place (or whatever it’s called, I’m not a developer). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Reeder 5 is out and it looks like it indeed does support iCloud sync for feeds. 😎

Still waiting for that tiny Apple Pencil for the iPhone Pro Max. Fingers crossed for next year 🤞🏻

MagSafe hands down was the most exciting part of the new iPhone announcement.

Today I assume you went to work. Bad news was everywhere, clogging up your social media, your conversations. Maybe it struck close to you. I’m sorry. Somewhere in your country, a thousand people died. I’m sorry for each of them. A thousand families are grieving tonight. A thousand more join them every day. The pain doesn’t go away, it just becomes a furniture of bones, in a thousand thousand homes.

Reeder 5 I am very much looking forward to this. Hoping the cloud is a teaser for iCloud sync for feeds so I don’t have to use third-party service like Feedbin

While it seemed kind of lazy, it turns out that developers who just directly ported apps to iPadOS with minimal, if any changes to the interface, e.g. Clip Studio Paint, did themselves a huge favor and will save so much time porting from iPadOS back to Apple Silicon Macs.

How do we know the difference between disengaging and running away?

Great video from one of my favorite YouTubers on his journey into Minimalism and how it helped him realize some hard truths about himself.

Deactivated Twitter. Feels good. We’ll see if I miss it at all within the next 30 days.

As much as I like and want to use digital tools, especially given how much I travel, I keep coming back to the thought that we are physical beings and losing the physicality in our tools and work perhaps loses some part essential to us.

I don’t normally share these types of things, but I think this actually looks pretty great and maybe even perfect for at least a few people here.

I used to like KonMari a lot and still think it’s helpful for some, but the more I think about it, the more it seems like it’s just an excuse for people to continue participating in our broken consumerist society while avoiding more fundamental change. 🤔

Is Gluon slow to update the timeline after I post or is it a micro.blog thing?

Got in touch with our fantastic driver from the short trip out to Kham I took with a friend last year and he sent me a few photos from the trip. Good memories.
