Notion Databases Solving Real Problems
Notion’s Tagline I often come across a really powerful tool that solves many problems and has in-depth capabilities that are far beyond anything I need to use. And yet that same tool solves a few small problems for me. I hesitate to tell you about it because I know I’m not doing the tool justice, […]

Podfeet Speedup and Fixing MySQL Character Encoding
Strange Character in Text I mentioned last week that podfeet.com had slowed down to a crawl, but that I didn’t know why. I thought it might be interesting to understand a little bit about how the site works and what Bart and I tried to do and how William Reveal is now our hero. The […]

Using an Airtable Database to Watch TV
I don’t know about you, but Steve and I are finding it harder and harder to keep track of what TV programs we’re watching. Perhaps this doesn’t qualify as a top-tier concern in our lives but when you want to relax with a program and shut your brain off from the world, you don’t want […]

How 1Password’s Family Plan Saved the Day
A few years back, AgileBits decided to change the business model for 1Password from a standalone, one-time purchase to a subscription service at 1Password.com. With 1Password.com, AgileBits took over syncing of our vaults, gave us a web interface, and with the subscription service they’ve been able to build in more enhancements than ever before. I […]

Bart has been teaching you and me for many years now. Between his Taming the Terminal series and now his Programming By Stealth series, he’s attempted to cram vast amounts of knowledge into our brains. My father used to say that children are like wine bottles – you should pour as much information into them […]
