    Polkadot launched today. I watched this entire video and I still don’t know what I can do with it or why I should care. It’s a well produced video and evokes feelings of awe and inspiration, but I’m not seeing any meat and potatos content which actually tells me what Polkadot is. Just another blockchain. […]

    Yesterday was wonderfully productive. I started using the Pomodoro Technique to manage my time spent working on web development and I had wonderful results in doing so.

    Written on Sun Nov 24 2019 @ 11:41 AM PST I awoke to my dad’s voice outside calling for the dogs. Because of his calls, he intruded into my dreams. How annoying. It’s 11:42 AM and I’m just geting up. Yikes. What happened to my leet schedule of waking up at 6AM? I gotta get […]

    How to programmatically open gnome-pomodoro timer window

    I’ve been enjoying streaming on Twitch for a few weeks while I work on my daily tasks. I have gained a bit of a productivity boost because of the accountability effect of being on camera in front of a small audience. One of the important self-care items for me while I stream is to take […]
