Walking downtown digging the Blue Stones thanks to another on point newsletter from @jonkit
New book day. Excited to check this one out.
Another great email from @jonkit! Such good stuff here. I am also digging the new weezer, had forgotten about The Staves. Also, looking forward to a deeper dive on Aria Ohlsson. Thanks!!
Disappointed that my 40 minutes of shoveling only netted 16 minutes of activity on my Apple Watch. What gives @apple?
So far my deep dive into iOS vintage synthesizer replicas has found me learning about the samples Tears for Fears used on their Linn Drum machine when recording “Shout” and the fundamental difference between AUV3 and Inter-App Audio. This got #intotheweeds pretty quickly.
Making Monday morning bearable thx to @coffee_corral
I’ve got nothing against dog-earring key pages but Woody here REALLY relished @jefftweedy ‘s How To Write One Song
If my LinkedIn profile were based on what I actually spend most of my time doing it would read: Filler of Humidifier Tanks.
Airport Express->V-DAC finally my hifi can be in sync with my homepods with Airplay 2 #reallyFirstWorldProblems
Unbelievable that the only way to integrate Airplay 2 into an existing home stereo system/older receiver for under $100 is to buy a discontinued wifi extender. Seriously @apple? Am I missing something here @mcelhearn, this feels like it might be familiar territory for you.
A requirement to read this gem should be part of the Terms of Service for any social media account.
If Facebook applied the algorithms that fuel its business model to brick and mortar business instead of just posts, there would be a liquor store setup outside of every AA meeting in America.
When you go back to watch Tenet the second time (and, rest assured there will be a necessary second viewing), this timeline is a mandatory viewing aid: https://reddit.com/r/tenet/comments/ii38sl/tenet_character_timeline_my_first_attempt_to_map/
In light of the confusion around what private companies are allowed to do when curating their platforms, it seems like a good time to revisit these three wise principles brought to you, in part, by the @eff: santaclaraprinciples.org
Listening to David Grisman Quintet on vinyl this AM and Tony Rice’s solos are perfect in every way. His sound is the North Star for my acoustic playing and I will miss him so much. So grateful to have shared time on this planet with him: youtu.be/rbDf4sutx…
Happy to see that Amazon has reinstated it’s on-demand Order History Report download page. They took it down a while back and offered “just email us and we’ll send you your data, eventually” as a not-so acceptable alternative.
Sounds too good to be true: an IDE for iOS shortcuts! jellycuts.com
A post about three of the most valuable health metrics your Apple Watch tracks for you to tell you how stressed, rested and fit your are and how to get them on your iPhone’s health app.
Nice rainy Sunday AM listening through some of @jonkit’s fantastic music picks from his latest newsletter: notesnotes.substack.com/p/-notes-… - I had completely forgotten about Georgia! Great stuff as usual.
Yesterday @mcelhearn turned me on to a great oud + Jack DeJohnette/Dave Holland rhythm section album. I didn’t place what it reminded me of until the middle of the night: music.apple.com/us/album/… Glad to dig back in to this Ben Allison album again🎶
The past few mornings I’ve been watching David Byrne’s @americanutopia followed by the Talking Heads Stop Making Sense. Uncannily consistent design language across both performances. Most jarring change is Byrne swapping his sweet Martin D35 from Stop Making Sense for a Guild.
When you mistakenly put chili powder on your son’s oatmeal instead of cinnamon on 12/31, that’s the spice rack weighing in on 2020.
Back to the 80s this week. Watched Fletch and Midnight Run. Both great movies. The earworm theme from Fletch is still deeply embedded.
The only pertinent question w/r/t homemade donuts on Christmas morning: with bacon or without?
