Trying to get myself to write a blog post with my phone. Something about it doesn't feel like I am writing.
Writing on the phone to me feels more like I am texting myself even though typing is typing.

Capturing a screen recording video with command-shift-5 is awesome except for one thing. Stopping the video once you start recording isn't that intuitive. The controls are really hard to find.
When you want to stop recording, hit command-shift-5 again and the menu will appear again with the stop button.

As much as I want to have all the CSS properties memorized, that isn't a nice thing to do to my brain. Instead I visualize my CSS snippets as a garden that I weed and prune.
My CSS snippets garden used to be a folder of text files which was fine. The key to that way was naming the files so they were easy to scan. Lately I moved to an app called Snippety that's a little more fun to garden in. It's quicker to search, prune, and the name is perfect. It also supports a way to export snippets to a file which is something you should always check before you fill up an app with your notes, thoughts, and ideas.

I had a some credit for the Apple Store so I got an app called Waterllama to remind me to hydrate. Wasn't sure if I was really going to use it but after a week of using it I am glad I got it. Before I was sure I was drinking enough water all day. Getting pinged from the app at regular intervals made me realize I before I was probably drinking a bunch of water mostly in the morning and evening.
You get to set up what you normally drink and then it has a hydration percentage that gets added and subtracted from your daily score. Water is 100% hydration, coffee is 60%, and alcohol is -50%.
Nice to get "am I drinking enough water" out of my head and into an automated system.

My French press has a space of honor on the shelf with the coffee beans. We were cleaning out the closet and I found an old pour over coffee maker I got at the ¥100 store. I washed it out and made coffee with it just now.
The pour over one had a little more of a medium-roast, dry vibe than the French press. There is a lot more of the coffee oil with a French press. Good to know I can get bit of a medium skewing cup from a dark roast instead of having to get different beans.
