Reading Shelf Lectern Combination

2022-02-27

One of the more complicated construction projects. But hey, it turned out pretty well (for someone who cannot cut in straight lines): a reading shelf lectern combination.

Using Apple Calendar to sync Microsoft Exchange Group Calendars

2022-01-29

Having a shared calendar for team meetings makes group work a bit more manageable. And Apple's Calendar allows you to do it — if you configure it right.

Streisand Effect & Alternative Platforms

Mind the cable you use for backups

2021-12-26

Not sure whether I have identified the problem correctly, but it would make sense — and explain how a backup can take 20 hours longer than it needs to take.

No Ads, No Sponsored Placements

A comment for those seeking to use this site for personal gain: Given the increase in requests, let me be clear. I write on this blog because I want to. It’s my hobby, my playground. Sometimes people point me to interesting products/services and I write about them. But any request regarding ads or sponsored placements ends up the trash without a reply. And if you think something would be of interest, differentiate yourself from the spammers by referring to a posting — in an intelligent way. (I get enough auto-generated mails to identify them immediately.)

BTW, posts can get updated after I published them if I spot spelling errors (not a native speaker) or think a different wording might improve precision and clarity.

Filter Blog Entries & Categories

This blog is not focused on a single topic, or method. As long as it is relevant to improving creativity (or allowing it in the first place), it's fair game.
Some postings on this blog deal with freedom, as I think that we need freedom of thought, of speech, of association, etc. pp. to solve mankind's problems. Thus, some postings may seem a bit remote when it comes to organizing creativity. Freedom is, however, the bedrock of creativity.
The heterogeneity of the postings can make reading this blog a bit cumbersome, at least if you are only interested in one topic. You can either use the search function (above), or use the categories or the tags to narrow down the postings you see.
