@JoeBuhlig no bookworm today?

@JoeBuhlig PKM seems to be a rather fickle market, where customers are interested in experimenting with s/w, migrating from one cool tool to the next newer one
@LucCogZest So true. More arenas are going the route of flat files and the ability to move tools easily. But that means people move a lot.
Not sure this post will get a ton of likes. You are the only person that I know who uses it.
@JoeBuhlig Ah the hay bales! Stacked a ton of those when I had horses a few years ago. Who are your bales for?
@CarolLoughrey1 We're using them around the base of our house this winter. Hoping to get our propane costs down.
Does this mean there is now a horse on the property?!🐎🐎
Ha! Ummm.... no. Simply a way of trying to keep the house warm(er) this winter.
@joebuhlig That is such a great program!
@odd I am a bit bummed that I can't watch season 2 without paying extra, though. 🤷♂️
@joebuhlig mind node these days. I like switching between outline and mindmap as my thinking on a project develops.
@lukemperez That's a good point. I forget that MindNode can do that. Def giving that a try.
@joebuhlig Pen and paper first, MindNode for maps I like to continue working on in the future
@JoeBuhlig @FrancescoD_Ales @draftsapp Wish Drafts had an option to disable most features. I was daily user back when it was my blank canvas. Now most power user features just distract me from typing.
Name a productivity tool you've been with for 5+ years! 📱
@FrancescoD_Ales Easy. @draftsapp It's the starting point for most tasks on my phone.
I keep my iPhone home screen empty. This is a commitment that is either a fad or a convergence of technology writers wanting better control over their handhe...

@JoeBuhlig Are you guys reading that for @bookwormfm by chance? Great title.
I keep coming across this book every few months. Yesterday it found me at Target. At this point, I think it’s asking to join my library…
@mikevardy I have this one! I read it to my girls periodically. Definitely recommended!
Just got one of them fancy #streamdeck devices. It seems like quite the deep pool, and I can already see some advantages.
Anyone have resources they'd suggest to get the most out of it?
@kouroshdini This is kind of old but the concepts remain:
I bought a 32-key Elgato Stream Deck because I was getting tired of remembering (and running out) of hotkey combinations. And at the time, I was ramping up m...
@JoeBuhlig have you ever checked out Amplenote? I’d love you thoughts on it. It does bidirectional linking, imports and exports Markdown. Also has tasks and a calendar. I’ve just started playing with the free plan
@CarolLoughrey1 I haven’t. But a quick glance at their site makes me wonder if it grants access to the raw files behind it. That’s a deal breaker to me anymore.
@JoeBuhlig Seasonal Affective Disorder due to shorter days is a thing
@ScottDellar That’s part of what started me thinking about it. If less daylight can affect mood in that way, wouldn’t other weather patterns be similar?
@JoeBuhlig Barometric pressure definitely has an effect
@ErikJFisher That’s true. And barometric pressure impacts a number of weather activities. Thanks for the data point. 👍🏻
@JoeBuhlig If you’ve gone to that much work, you should roll back that high mileage! 😇
@fogus @JoeBuhlig needs one of these…
Also, I wrote yesterday’s giveaway winner post for the blog and forgot to schedule it in it’s usual Saturday time slot.
Moral of the story: Don’t get old.
@dowdyism I’d sponsor an article explaining exactly how to do that. With proven results. 😉
And lastly, @MacSparky, @_MikeSchmitz and @JoeBuhlig keep me informed and asking questions with their Focused and Bookworm podcasts.
Podcasts play different roles for me, from distraction to information to relaxation.
How about you?
@dolearning 🤗 Thanks for sharing. I’m the same, though. There are big periods where I make significantly more podcasts than I consume.
@joebuhlig I have heard if you feed them chocolate, ice cream and Mt Dew it actually increases their digging capacity!
@joebuhlig got quite a gopher there!!
@JoeBuhlig Broken link (space) in the tweet my dude!
@davidjoelhall I’m aware. Was testing a permashortlink. But decided against using them. 👍🏻
Why are most nonfiction books excellent in the first half, and dreadfully dull in the second?
@jessejanderson A lot of them should be long blog posts instead of a book. And the publisher enforces a certain length.
Scheduled some time to think this afternoon. Care to join me? I’m working out my thoughts on Big Tech owning my data.

Sorry team. Gotta move this back a day. Got to take care of a leak at the house. 🌧
@JoeBuhlig “I am also recording this call for training purposes”
@JoeBuhlig Thanks for sharing. It seems like a big undertaking to match blueprints to pass building codes, with good construction (well-built) with design (the custom special elements)...but perhaps the DIY homebuilders crowd is just like the DIY note apps crowd, just a different medium.
@NickMilo Honestly, code wouldn’t be the issue most of the time. Most of it is finish work, which is unrestricted. Sometimes framing and electrical is involved but code-wise those are simple. Even on custom. It’s usually too limited in market for builders. So the money isn’t there overall.
@JoeBuhlig Are you taking the call via FaceTime audio on your Mac?
@davidjoelhall No. Standard phone call. Plug a TRRS cable into the Rodecaster and the other end into my iPhone. Then it routes everything from the Rodecaster into the phone as a mic and outputs it on its own channel.
