Radicalized by a soap dispenser
https://kwon.nyc/notes/radicalized-by-a-soap-dispenser/
Published: August 23, 2024 13:01
I get frustrated when things don’t work. Increasingly I have been getting especially frustrated when things that are fancy don’t work, because I feel bamboozled. The other day, I went to wash my hands in the bathroom at work, and the automated soap…
Lunch break

Published: July 17, 2024 12:08
I never had a regular “lunch break” until recently. Early in my career it was not by choice — in surgery training there’s really no such thing as a break, only a stolen minute or two here and there to pee or wolf down whatever food you can scrounge or nap…
Stubs

An interesting blog post. I liked this note about trees in Johannesburg by Herman. In our last apartment, the bedroom faced a quiet tree-filled backyard despite the apartment itself being on a major two-way avenue, so I woke up to birds chirping and almost…

Published: June 18, 2024 00:32
I would like to spend less time on life admin. I think of life admin as all the stuff that is necessary but not sufficient to have a good life. I believe the actual term was coined by a researcher who wrote a book about it that I bought and put on my…

https://kwon.nyc/notes/spring-ride/
Published: May 18, 2024 12:51
Since transitioning to a more or less Monday-thru-Friday, 9-to-5 work week, I often feel my brain is pretty fried on Fridays (fried-days?), as well as a general depletion of energy for socializing, so for the last several years I have kept Friday evenings…
Net positive, maybe

Published: April 20, 2024 15:02
This is a half-baked thought I’ve been preheating for a bit. Technology has changed the way we consume and create media has evolved, and considering all the benefits against the drawbacks, sometimes it doesn’t feel like a net improvement to me. Or maybe…
Lately

I’ve been a little less online lately, but not to worry, I have just been living my life :) Several weeks ago, I gave notice at work and left. Some people in my life were surprised, because it was a good job at a good company, I generally enjoyed it, I got…

Which self is this?

Last month Katherine called out the tension inherent in a “personal” website which is that it is both public and personal, and one’s public (or professional) persona is often different from that of their personal life. Robin Rendle riffed on the concept…
