→ Apple Is the $2.3 Trillion Fortress That Tim Cook Built ●

“But Tim understands the world to a degree that very, very few CEOs I’ve met over the past 60 years could match.” — That, from Warren Buffett. In the same way you invest in Tesla for Musk, you invest in Apple for Cook.

→ "I'm Not a Cat" ●

Yeah, yeah — you’ve already seen this. But I want to put it on the record so I can come back to one of the funniest videos I’ve ever seen.

February 2021

→ Meet 14-Year-Old Hockey Sensation Sidney Crosby ●

“I think he has every attribute to be a good player.” Yeah. Uh huh.

→ How I Time-Block and Plan in a Traveler’s Notebook ●

Forgive me for spilling my thoughts about my Traveler’s Notebook — it’s been years since I had a chance to truly talk about my analog workflows. So when Shawn thought it would be a cool contrast to the many digital knowledge workflows, I couldn’t say no. My Traveler’s Notebook is becoming one of my most-used tools and I’m not ashamed to admit it takes precedence over a variety of digital options.

I became a classical music fan in my university years and during my history-degree studies. Beethoven has always embodied the right balance of fun and depth for my audio palate.

I’d buy an Apple Watch just so I could purchase one of these Braided Solo Loops. Phenomenal mockup work.

→ How to Use the iPad for Study and Deep Learning ●

This one got a bit long — it clocks in around 7,000 words — but it’s the culmination of 10 years of learning on an iPad. My goal here: To discover the ups and downs of studying on an iPad so you don’t have to. If you’re a student, buy an iPad and a Magic Keyboard — it’s the best educational tool there is, bar none.

→ Why You’re More Creative in Coffee Shops ●

This isn’t really a secret anymore, but it’s amazing how brown/white/pink/blue/pick-a-colour noise has such a dramatic impact on our productivity and creativity.

→ Reddit’s Profane, Greedy Traders Are Shaking Up the Stock Market ●

Take a look at the publish date on this article. I saved this to my read later queue way, way, way back when, never bothered to read it, and re-stumbled upon the link during this week’s shenanigans. These guys have been around for awhile, and it seems as though they’ve officially bitten off their biggest piece of hedge-fund-flesh so far.

→ Tuned for the Mac ●

Another Kyle Dreger link. Another linguistic masterpiece.
