Midway through the interview we talk about his work as the production designer on the “Beasts of the Southern Wild”, and then dig deep into the strikingly designed worlds of the first two seasons of “True Detective”.
I loved season one of True Detective.
Between 2012 to 2022, we came to believe that the natural structure for online interaction was for billions of people to all use the same small number of privately-owned social platforms. We’re increasingly realizing now that it was this centralization idea itself that was unnatural. The underlying architecture of the internet already provides a universal platform on which anyone can talk to anyone else about any topic.
These sheets are like regular programs in many ways. Felienne Hermans, a veteran spreadsheet researcher, puts it very simply: Spreadsheets are code. She also goes on to show that they suffer from the same problems as real software.

I’ve had a Mac running as a server in my house for more than 20 years now, and I have zero regrets. As I detailed five years ago, the specific uses for my always-on Mac have changed numerous times over the decades, but the various Macs that have served the purpose have always made themselves useful.
Pile of index cards, as a cultural genetic code.
While git + emacs + org-mode was certainly functional, I never had cause to do anything particular sexy with the setup. In fact, I was hoping this experience would convert me from a fan of subversion to a fan of git, but alas, it only reinforced my appreciation for the simplicity of subversion.
The index cards, on the other hand, were a joy to use. I love that each project is represented by a single card, and that spreading out the cards gives me an overview of all possible tasks to work on:[…]
“Getting Things Done” is a great, lightweight system by David Allen for managing all the stuff you’re working on (or want to work on). Here’s how I’ve implemented it.
An old video about Getting Things Done. It needs a Vimeo login to watch.
People don’t understand the concept of files and folders any more
This is not a great trend.

Hey there 👋 I’m Niko. Welcome to my site. I hope you enjoy your stay. Forever.
My name is Thord D. Hedengren, and this is my site, The Bored Horse. I’m a writer, publisher, and web developer. I’ve written a bunch of books, and I’ve been published all over the web.
I am Abhinav Sarkar. I’m a software engineer currently living in Bangalore, India. When not making software, I read books, play drums, take photos and ride my bike.
While you’re here, you can read my blog posts, my notes, my microblog, learn about me and this website, or look at my projects, the books I’ve read, the photos I’ve taken, and the recent activities I’ve done.
There are two main types of emails on the internet: plaintext and HTML. Many people, particularly in technical communities, strongly prefer or even require the use of plain text email from participants. However, your mail client may not have it set up by default. We’ll help you get it configured, and introduce you to the norms and conventions of plain text email.
It is way more complicated than needs to be to add custom sidebar icons to folders in Finder, but I still want to save this project.

Tools I still like to use:
E-mail, text/MMS, RSS, a blog/personal website, podcasts, forums. What did I miss?
These fundamental tools are still around because they are the best tools where you are in control of what you are interested in and what you can discover.
I couldn’t agree more with Mr. Brooks.
I got a chance to talk about how I use my iPads on the latest episode of iPad Pros.
I hope you like it!
Flexibits just released Fantastical 3.7.9, which adds a bunch of new Shortcuts actions, including the ability to filter events from a given Calendar Set in a given date range, and the ability to generate a simple schedule for a given day.
Nice! I have a shortcut which syncs up calendar events with agenda items in Things. Now, I can automatically do the following in one shortcut:
