fdsdfsdfCreate a ‘Noticing Wall’ for Your Kid
Lifehacker: If you’re creating a noticing wall, a good first rule would be: Don’t talk about the noticing wall, or at least don’t talk about it too much. You don’t even need to give the wall a name. Let it just sit there and be a quiet place for thoughts, hopes and curiosities. Dit ga […]
I was wrong about the iPad Pro
Owen Williams: There are two things that the iPad excels at: battery life—despite a constant 4G connection—and the ways it forces you to multitask: slowly, with intent. 100% mee eens.

Een doorlichting van de websites van alle Democratische presidentskandidaten: For those who think it trivializes our political process to judge candidates by their typography—what would you prefer we scrutinize? Qualifications? Ground into dust during the last election. Issues? Be my guest. Whether a candidate will ever fulfill a certain campaign promise about a certain issue […]
The Value of Ritual in Your Workday
HBR: Which might be why we avoid ritual in the business world. Religion is so loaded, so personal. But ritual doesn’t have to be religious; it’s just a tool religions use. Rituals are about paying attention. They’re about stopping for a moment and noticing what you’re about to do, what you’ve just done, or both. […]
Facebook is a capitalism problem, not a Mark Zuckerberg problem
Ezra Klein van Vox: The lesson of the Facebook experience is that this space is too important to be left to the market. As a society, we need to decide what kind of competition we want to allow and what kind of competition we want to discourage. Perhaps we want sharp limits on how much […]
