do you know whether changing the location would affect him? you might setup a recycling system and find that since its not the same location it doesn't have the same effect. Part of the fascination could be the snug feeling of sitting

As someone who has worked in both fields for almost equal amounts of time I can have some thoughts, not all true all the time but certainly some common things I've come across! I think the one key point is that developers and designers

I moved all the apps into the app library rather than delete them. That way I have to swipe down and type the name of the app I want. It's been very effective. Once I took away the icon I forgot the app existed! If I forced myself into

I picked up a YA book (the skullduggery pleasant series) at my friend's house a while ago and read practically the whole thing. It was a nice fun easy read! I wasn't trying to widen my knowledge I was just reading that's my n

I’ve been searching for a book that helps me identify some goals for myself for yearsss. Once i get some I’ll have read enough books to know what to do with them but nothing so far has helped me become inspired. Closest I’ve come so far is

yesss more people suffering from this - its so infuriating especially paypal. I mostly get signed up for newsletters but I do actually have the name and address of one of the people who uses my email address. I know its not exactly polite a

Obviously not helpful now but could be of interest to someone. This article has always stuck in my mind for when a well known vegan considers leaving. Turned out she needed more fat in her diet which I guess makes sense considering the natu

I used to install loads of apps - but now I tend to keep things as osx only as possible. One reason is I switch machines so often and my early macs we're customised to the hilt and I've never achieved that level of greatness again

The past few months I've been on a temporary internet connection, it says its 15meg but in reality its usually 3-5meg. Its given me a while new understanding of the need for lite sites, reducing file downloads and giving users options

I have the same feelings as you a lot of these books are glorified blog posts - my trick to dealing with them is to treat them as such. I read on kindle so for books like this I read on my ipad and check the 'continuous scrolling'

I'd noticed this too but I've found that the best results usually are now on page 2 or 3 and the first few pages I've mentally written down as 'sponsored links' so I've just trained myself to ignore them!

I make a point to read local news and the comments (and occasionally facebook). I think only reading HN tricks you into thinking people will a) read the whole article b) understand the article c) have read further on the topic d) will contr

Weirdly I had the notification about an airtag found moving with me a few days ago. I know the airtag is there or at least I know of one thats there! For some reason it's not on my "find my" under the family account. Also I&#

I really struggle to know what to write - sometimes I feel like writing loads but don't know what about other times I don't want to write but I know it helps me! I used to keep a list of prompts in evernote but it got really long
