Finished reading: Termination Shock: A Novel by Neal Stephenson 📚.
Far from my favorite, but I never considered abandoning it — which sometimes happens to me with NS’s books.
microblog
A full stream of microposts.
Feel like crap. 4th member of household to likely fall for omicron (?). Luckily vaccinated with booster. Holding on for a light fever.
Sadly Hyperkey app (recommended) had an issue with my plugging/unplugging USB-C keyboard and loosing control. Replicated the functionality with Karabiner, here’s my rule CommandR Key to Hyper Key (CommandR if held).
🎥 Finished watching Maixabel last night. Powerful and extremely well acted Spanish movie about a recent — more that I remembered — chapter in Spain’s history. Recommended.
☕️ No press french press: 20gr medium coarse (3 rotations 1Zpresso JX) decaf + 380 ml water. Wait 4 min, stir top crust, remove foam and fines. Let it rest at least 5min. Pour in one motion, so back/forward flow doesn’t agitate the grounds again.
Lots of good folder-naming-system nuggets here. Love this posts with examples.
I really really miss Superhuman mail app on my Friday inbox sweep. Hopefully the O365 version will be available soonish.
Coined a new term for my software dev CapEx reports: Zorp: Zero Outcome Reporting Project. Basically groups all tasks that are not part of a project, which automatically makes them OpEx. The added benefit being that it shows last when sorting projects.
My AeroPress barista.
Anything that pipes more stuff to RSS sounds good to me. But can’t get my mind around Twitter-to-RSS instead of just having a blog. But never forget that in the long run, Dave Winer is always right.
It’s a showdown.
📺 Weekend binge watching Inventing Anna on Netflix with my Ana. Liking it more than expected. Let’s see about the last 3 tomorrow.
Yikes. Hi everyone! Forgot posts on micro.blog go the common feed. Working on importing from blot – trying not to bring in the titles.
I don’t think the slack replacement with Mastodon experiment is working out. Now I’ll play with the idea of returning to micro.blog and connecting with Mastodon account.
Of course now I have a mishmash of posts between this microblog and the mastodon Pueblo.dedosdefrente.com experiment.
The ZWILLING Enfinigy Drip coffee maker looks a solid cheaper alternative to the Ratio Six. Looking forward to some comparisons.
Really hoping I can get into the Superhuman O365 beta list soon. The slowness of Outlook makes my sorting pomodoros unnecessary painful.
Watched The Expanse season 6 during the weekend. Held off the final episode today so I can enjoy it next weekend… or maybe I don’t want to let go.
Moving posting scripts from drafts to obsidian + shortcuts.
Figuring out my microblogging sorting now that I have a mastodon instance.
A lo que vinimos — what we came for. An expression I always enjoy hearing in real life™.
🎥 Curious of how accurate, but King Richard was really good.
Great club day. Trying out new tennis rackets, lunch and pool. Now enjoying a nice Escazú sunset.
Old quick faithful today: 24gr fine to 240ml. Prismo with paper filter. After a minute ~ 8 back/forward stirs and wait 30s to slowly press. Complete with hot water to 300ml and split in two cups. Then 150ml of foamed milk in each.
Similar recipe as yesterday but on the Clever Dripper — as control.
Reaching the point of my handwriting improvement project in which I see all that I’m doing wrong. In theory getting better… in practice, the worst combination between my previous style and the new one.
Testing out the Slow System’s metal dripper. With 22gr Costa Rican dark (medium coarse) and 525ml water. Turned out really soft and sweet.
Doing some numerology for new habits:
- 9:41am end morning browsing block
- 1:23pm take fish oil reminder
- 5:43pm start of 18:6(ish) fasting
- 9:02pm start of evening browsing block
One of those days parenthood has proven challenging.
