Life sanity hack

@Tahls 😳

excuse me

@liubinskas I’m a couple of months in and I’m starting to really feel the benefit of it now. Easy storage and searching through tags etc is great. I don’t use the desktop app all that much, but who knows maybe in the future. Folio cover and staedtler pen from Amazon. Save some dollarydoos

Thinking of getting the Remarkable 2 to help me capture better notes, follow them up easily, file them better, be able to draw stuff. Thoughts?

One of the most beautiful episodes of TV that I have seen, dare I say, ever. The Last of Us S01E03

@RealPhilSweeney I feel bullied into buying a Gibby.

No TV show has farewelled their characters better than Agents of Shield. I’ve cried literal rivers. Fight me.

Charlie Hunnam sounds suspiciously like Casey MacCasefile in Shantaram…

@KarlPodesta @brian_scanlan @moranjustin There are quite a number of us out there that could contribute to that thread.

@brian_scanlan @moranjustin Needless to remark, you also actually got me a job, quite some time before that… hmm, probably need to start a “things I appreciate about Brian thread”… 🤔

The current spate of tech layoffs remind me of when I was laid off from The Irish Times in 2003, and @moranjustin very kindly and immediately offered to meet for a pint, which I took. Seemingly small gestures can matter a lot, do take some time to mind each other.

@JoJoFromJerz “Beards are good, mullets are bad” great way to remember.

My son put the toilet paper roll on the holder like this. Who does this?!? It’s like I don’t even know him. 😖

@brian_scanlan Shhhh!!!

I hope Instagram continue to forget that their web frontend is devoid of all the suggested content and ads.

@jiggsy Chu Chu Rocket!

@katwhite_ Croup as well?! Yikes. Poor thing.

@katwhite_ Double whammy. :(

@damana @Qantas So in short, Qantas are doing the flight cancelling and the losing of luggage while NIB do the health insurance.

@damana @Qantas Qantas Well-being is product packaging for NIB. For instance you don’t go to a Qantas dental clinic for a filling you go to a NIB one. The benefit to Qantas is your data, the benefit to you is FFP.

@SarahOCarroll What. A. Blog!

I’ve always wondered that these braced poles are. Sewage vents? Anyone know exactly what they are?

@joe_hardy @cliffkuang @lissijean @cagan Circling back on this one Joe. It’s a cracking read. Healthy focus on Conway’s Law.

Hey twitterverse; I’m doing some research and looking for suggestions on the books that have been the most influential in your professional career. Career areas are software engineering, product management, human centred design, team leadership, anything the Tech space really.

I’m from Ireland. I’ve lived here for 17 years, and for each one of them I’ve thought to myself…”winter hits different here, harder”.

@RealPhilSweeney Thanks for clarifying :)
