Now (or Recently)
The "now page" concept comes from an idea by Derek Sivers to have people communicate what they're focused on now at this point in their lives.
Podcasts
- Judge John Hodgman Episode 665: Property Cousins
- ドングリFM公式サイト I don’t know why they don’t have recent episodes listed here.
Books
- Kingdom of Play | Book by David Toomey | Official Publisher Page | Simon & Schuster This is a pretty fascinating look at an under-studied element of animal life – the fact that animals play. But why? How does play benefit animals trying to survive in the ruthless foodchain that is their lives?
- Hacking with macOS – learn to make macOS apps with Swift 5.10 using real-world projects It should be pretty obvious what this one is about.
- Lost Japan Alex Kerr is a gaijin living in Japan who despairs at the loss of culture in the name of progress, and who also works to restore old buildings in various parts of Japan. Almost done with this one.
- Hacks, Leaks, and Revelations: The Art of Analyzing Hacked and Leaked Data by Micah Lee This is more technical manual than history or novel, but it is fascinating. It’s really a how-to of sensitive data analysis.
Movies and TV
- Watch The Expanse - Season 1 | Prime Video My wife is finally finishing The Expanse and I’m watching some of it with her. What a show. All time favorite.
Food and Drink
- Toshi Restaurant Splendid food, horrible website. Restaurant owners need help with their webs, people.
Projects
- I am going to start a project to make this site accessible.
- I am going to start another project to document revisions of the site because I have no visual history of the changes it’s gone through over the years.
