Today’s goal: Do my taxes.

Sidenote: Threads on Twitter are such a mess. Some Tweets are replies and not threads and its all so jumbled and confusing.

Thoughts on the limited ports of the MacBook Pro

Pros:
– Flexibility on which side you can charge on

Cons:
– No light indicator to see if your laptop is fully charged or not without opening it up

Under System Preferences –> General I check “Always” to show scrollbars so I can detect overflowing when doing web development. Otherwise it gets hidden until you hover over the area.

Some notable Chrome extensions:

LastPass for passwords lastpass.com/

Website IP for displaying the IP address of the page you’re visiting chrome.google.com/webstore/detai…

Quick JavaScript switcher because I like to make sure things work when JS doesn’t chrome.google.com/webstore/detai…

First thing to setup, Google Chrome! Everything is all synced over automatically and good to go. How nice.

Oh yea I guess I get to invest in some dongles because this thing only has 4 USB-C ports (and a headphone jack, how unbrave of Apple). I hear this hub is a good buy. amzn.to/2XtnHUv

Uhhhh I’m not liking these new arrow keys. This will take some time to get used to.

Coming from a 13″ MacBook Pro to a 15″ MacBook Pro this new computer is a little bit bigger physically but the screen is a great deal bigger. Should be nicer for multitasking with multiple windows.

I don’t mind the new butterfly keyscaps of the keyboard. It doesn’t feel that different to me right off the bat. Not looking forward to dust and crumbs getting lodged underneath them. Maybe there is a lame keyboard case cover to solve that problem by now.

Got a new computer for my new job. Figured I might as well tweet some thoughts as I go through and set things up.

Use “cats” instead because they don’t listen to anybody twitter.com/BeParticular/status/…

This is neat but it would be better if they used dummyimage.com 😉 twitter.com/dennisl/status/11003…

Today’s agenda:
– Hang out with kids
– Breakfast at McDonald’s
– Trampoline park
– Swimming
– Napping

I’m pumped!

Mmmmm look at these darling website stats from an audit. The homepage was only 575KB all together. 1/5 of that was 2 Flash ads

Friends and I would make silly science videos in high school. I gave a copy to a friend to show during his chemistry class. The copy was recorded over cheesy late-night Cinemax softcore porn. Science teacher thought some of the porn was part of the science video and kept playing. twitter.com/KEBrightbill/status/…

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I scrolled, weak and weary,
