I fired up Obsidian and I fell in love immediately. My friends’ second option? Go as deep as Obsidian! not always, but from time to time, I was shouting “WHERE ARE MY NOTES?” just to see them appear minutes later.Īpple Notes.app? tested, liked it overall, but it’s not for me. Second, the iCloud sync has some weird issues. Yes, you can actually connect the Notes.app to your IMAP account and sync that with other Unix machines using clients like Evolution, but now the features are limited to text only. Well, I like this option, but I had two issues.įirst, it’s Apple only. Go as basic as possible and use Notes.app. I have been told, by my friends, that my options are the following: This is actually a good reason to not use the fancy features of the cloud, but again, that’s a story for another day. From my development environment to my infrastructure tools, everything is synced local/prod. Unlike most other developers, I work completely locally. Sometimes I enable iOS/macOS’s DnD, to get some work done, but sometimes I go completely offline with no distractions at all. I know, this sounds strange to many people, but I don’t like being online all the time. Even if you have the desktop app, it’s still just a wrapper around the website with some nice things like desktop notifications and such. That ended up being a disaster for a very weird reason: It only works online. The obvious choice was to use Notion, since I know it anyway. Which meant that I needed a digital tool to manage the non-work part of my life as well. Co-hosting and producing a podcast, running a community of Armenian hackers, teaching cybersecurity (I actually end up teaching Unix + Networking + how computers work, but turns out that’s what actually 80% of cybersecurity is anyway), contributing more to open-source (specially since we open-sourced our little utility, Jailer) to name a few. That one is, indeed, enterprise-y, but that’s a story for another day).īut last year I started taking some more responsibilities (kind-of-)outside of work. (To be clear, while I like Notion and any other tool would do the job as well, I have to say that I never liked Jira’s UI/UX. Half of the team does development and the other half does development-related things (release engineering, infra) and business-y stuff, such as sales, marketing, what have you, so we never had any issues with Notion. I like the database feature and my team loves the Kanban boards. We ended up using Notion, and we like it very much. And I’ll be honest here, I don’t care which one that is, most of them do the same thing anyway. At some point, specifically when your team has more than three people, you need some kind of task management tool. In the last 5 years, my main and only job was to do one thing and one thing only, run illuria, Inc., a company that I co-founded with my friends. Spoiler alert: I keep failing to do that. macOS Desktops limit?įor the last 6 to 10 months, I’ve been trying to find the proper digital tools to manage my life. This entry was posted in Tech and tagged Apple, macOS on Novemby Antranig Vartanian. Actually, just have a look at Xorg, the community has published the proper layouts there decades ago. I really don’t know how this happened, but it was clearly a very bad decision for the majority of the planet.ĭear Apple, if you are reading this, please just email/iMessage/call me, I will show you to to make this better again (just “minify” the old version) and show you the proper Armenian layouts. They don’t have people there who use multiple layouts, or custom layouts, or maybe they all just use Emojis to communicate. Yes, Lilith uses Armenian Phonetic with English, also a custom layout, as Apple still… didn’t we just do this?Ĭlearly, Apple lacks diversity. Here’s a screenshot from Lilith’s computer. They both have the same “icon” so it’s impossible to know which layout I’m choosing.Ĭompare this with macOS Ventura where you can see exactly which layout you’re choosing. In my case, for example, I use both the Armenian Eastern Alternative layout (custom made, as Apple still ships a very bad Armenian layout) and the Armenian Typewriter layout (custom made, as Apple still… you get the point). This is really bad, as many people might have multiple layouts which have the same icon. Here’s what happens when you switch the keyboard layout on macOS Sonoma Most of the time we use custom keyboard layouts because Apple doesn’t like listening to its customers on how keyboard layouts should look like. Multi-lingual people use multiple keyboard layouts. To my surprise there’s only a single thing that’s bugging me… Switching the keyboard layout. I did it, I finally upgraded to macOS Sonoma.
