: Writing is the process by which you realize that you do not understand what you are talking about. Importantly, writing is also the process by which you figure it out. - Farnam Street - fs.blog/why-write/

Really enjoying this 2012 album: colours of melancholia by Colours Of Melancholia. Grab it here coloursofmelancholia.bandcamp.

This was a great read. signal.org/blog/signal-is-for-

I've often scratched my head at Signal's decision-making. Stickers? Stories? I'd rarely use them, if ever. But Signal describes how they are specifically making features for users outside U.S. culture and infrastructural contexts.

Quite enjoying Lure Me by Eguana. A random find whilst looking for albums on

Hello Asia is the standout from my first listen through

Finally got around to adding a header image and profile description to my Mastodon account. I've also finally verified my web site. It's amazing how productive I can be when I'm avoiding work...

Digitakt OS 1.50 - An amazing update. Nothing we couldn't already do, but the workflow for chops and time stretching is so so simple now. Very elegant. Grab it here: elektronauts.com/t/digitakt-os If you didn't know, now you know, and I kind of wish I didn't. I already had so much work to do, and after messing around all morning, now I have even more!

If you pay for one or more music streaming services, I'm asking you to spend an equal amount this Friday on buying music directly from Bandcamp artists. Your streaming dollars DO NOT GO TO ARTISTS. They go to tech execs. Bandcamp dollars go to musicians.

Please share this widely, too many people STILL don't know that 99.999% of every dollar they spend on Spotify et al goes directly into a tech bastard's pocket.

Finally sorting out Gadgetbridge for my smart watch when I have a heap of work to do is definitely not procrastination... Stopping my data being mined by Xiaomi and automating my step count record in my journal is for sure more important than finishing important work and getting paid, right?

Not sure if I've recommended this before, but I'm really enjoying Phil France's Circle: philfrance.bandcamp.com/album/
