Our devices are exhausting us
I'm no longer working with Lifehacker, which is disappointing. But I'm grateful I got to spend two years doing one of my favorite things: finding great indie and open source tools and sharing them with readers.

The peace that’s available
We're told we live in unprecedented times, and there's truth to that. It's worth remembering, though, that it's all a little less unprecedented than it feels.

Mark Zuckerberg Is A Digital Narcotics Dealer
In a recent newsletter I referred to Mark Zuckerberg as a digital narcotics dealer, which readers seemed to enjoy. I briefly wondered if I was overstating the matter until I read about how schools are worried students will skip meals in order to use their phones. Some context: Oregon, like many states, is prohibiting students...
