I am mighty impressed with S24 Ultra's battery life. I’d charged it yesterday morning, have gone through a regular use and it’s still at 34%. Wow! I don’t think I need to charge my phone everyday anymore.

[Amit Gawande😷 @_am1t]

@amit_merchant Yeah. Felt so unnecessary. And overdone.

Watched Animal today. What a terrible movie -- thank god I didn't waste any money on this by watching it in theatres. Even with continuous forwarding, I had a bad headache towards the end. Not for me! 🤕

And why was Deol celebrated in this movie? He is hardly there!? 🤦🏽‍♂️

Am I active here? Nope. Do I tweet? Nope. Do I still do so to keep my account active? Oh absolutely, every month.

Learn to ask, “If this is the only thing I accomplish today, will I be satisfied with my day?”

Don’t ever arrive at the office or in front of your computer without a clear list of priorities. You’ll just read unassociated e-mail and scramble your brain for the day. Compile your to-do list for tomorrow no later than this evening. I don’t recommend using digital to-do lists, because it is possible to add an infinite number of items. I use a standard piece of paper folded in half three times, which fits perfectly in the pocket and limits you to noting only a few items.

There should never be more than two mission-critical items to complete each day. Never. It just isn’t necessary if they’re actually high-impact.

If you are stuck trying to decide between multiple items that all seem crucial, as happens to all of us, look at each in turn and ask yourself, If this is the only thing I accomplish today, will I be satisfied with my day?

To counter the seemingly urgent, ask yourself: What will happen if I don’t do this, and is it worth putting off the important to do it?

I composed a song recently, my first attempt, which I recorded today. Thanks to @Shankar_Live sir and teachers at @ShankarMAcademy for all the inspiration! https://t.co/5xzV4B1vaG

@gingerbeardman No, I don't use Blot anymore and so don't know if BlotPub even works. I would love to maintain this, but I don't have a way to test it.

[Amit Gawande😷 @_am1t]

I am having fun getting back into Indieweb stuff -- working on adding support for updates to Blotpub. This has been in works for so long, I had to get to it. I also recently added support for syndicating longer posts to Twitter and Mastodon. Always makes me relaxed.

@1Password Is there a way to change the individual account type to family for a account with Apple subscription?

@mehulved Nice, he can soon also get a Blue Tick on Twitter.

I think it’s time to make all content 20% human-produced.
To a coder, if his code doesn’t work, it means he’s wrong.

Here’s what AI thinks I can write based on what I have written on Twitter. Interesting! https://t.co/fYDGyxb9eO

My daughter just shushed me because I talked to her while she was engrossed in her adventure novel. Now even I want to read the book. https://t.co/c2ZpKSAe9S

In the past 30 years, the British economy chose finance over industry, Britain’s government chose austerity over investment, and British voters chose a closed and poorer economy over an open and richer one.

@amit_merchant I did try this. Been failing with 500 errors.

Can I read any big publication anymore? Everything’s behind pay wall - and I can’t subscribe to all.

I have always built web apps with Node.js and Express for all my side projects till now. However, I wonder if that duo is still the best choice for a new one that I am working on. What are the other options? I am ok to learn. Rather, I would love to ... https://t.co/ySqEywq3xS

I don’t think Twitter users will mass exit the platform. Do people on Twitter care who heads the company? The exits that happen today won’t be of the users. And that has already begun. https://t.co/W3xllB1Pr0
