From my 100 Strangers project - Steve was profoundly over dressed for a hot afternoon street fair in Raleigh all the way down to his fingerless gloves. He played a bit as a grumpy crazy guy, but in reality, he was a charming crazy guy I enjoyed talking to.

Today on AppAddict - TRANSNOMINO is a free file naming utility with professional capabilities using wild cards, regular expressions or file attributes. It took the place of a Better Finder Rename for me.

Keyboard Maestro Macro to Copy #Obsidian Daily Note to Day One

I use my Obsidian Daily Note to capture all kinds of data:

  • Task of the day
  • Weather
  • Appointments
  • What I learned
  • What I did
  • What I am grateful for
  • Notes created today
  • Notes modified today
  • Tasks completed today

I use a Keyboard Maestro macro to copy the note over at the end of the day to Day One, since I’ve been keeping a Day One journal for 10 years and have 18K entries. The one drawback is the data from Dataview queries does not copy over.

Let’s cut the bullshit and spell out a few things. The IT security industry is about as trustworthy as the food supplement and vitamin industry, but somehow they escaped the same reputation. Their products are overwhelmingly based on flawed ideas, and the quality of their software is exceptionally bad. And while not everyone will agree with the harshness of my words, I’ll say this: Essentially everyone in IT security who knows anything in principle knows this. - @hanno@mastodon.social

Today on AppAddict - I was reviewing the free and open-source app, Later, designed to save and reopen workspaces when I got a weird warning from Little Snitch and unexplained requests to access different areas of my Mac. Further examination revealed that the app wasn’t notarized. Not recommended!

From my 100 Strangers Project - Kiesha was waiting for the train to go to work with her brother, Marcus when he got bored and started to chase her around the platform. Later, out of breath, she informed me that he “plays too much. He plays out all the time.” She was smiling though.
