Why maintain something old when you can build something new? 😜

That's a pretty good hook

I love all the important OOO and calendar-related work you are doing today!

They're legit, and I've done a few calls, but half that rate or less. My main issue with them is manually adding my availability to their system, then holding those slots open while the clients select (could be days). I decided my flexibility is worth more, but tools might have fixed that issue.

Hey past self... I wrote a post that was LESS THAN 1,000 WORDS.

I've never been to Romania, but their deadlifts make me think everybody walks around with tight hammies.

But how was last summer's harvest? Picking blackberries on someone else's property is the only way to pick blackberries.

Have you heard any examples that make you more excited? It seems like things I don't currently do, but might if it were easier: better organize my tasks, document my systems, or track my decisions.

I wonder how much the cost of hardware influences software prices. The machine to run that started at $799, which puts it at ~$2,500.

With a name fit for the Pirates, Jeff Parrett’s career took flight in MON. Without a single start, he finished enough games to earn 12 wins in 1988. Then Parrett mimicked those stats with PHI in 1989. His ERA was under 3.00 for both seasons. 88 Donruss has chaw-in-pocket Parrett perched mid-windup.

This seemed as good a reason as any to write my first personal blog post in two years: adamduvander.com/.../i-still-... It's about maps, baseball, and writing.

"Hey Dutch." "But I am German!" "What's the difference?!"

I made a map of their birthplaces. They're mostly from the East Coast of the US! The only two from Europe were both born in Germany, which probably says more about their teammates who nicknamed them.

Adam DuVander @duv.bsky.social · 28/07/2025
There are 23 former baseball players named "Dutch." And none of them are Dutch by birth. 😆

RIGHT?! And a keyboard combo that means one thing sometimes and another thing other times... ?

I have also discovered this on accident. Multiple times! A few times I've done it on purpose and it's a delight. It even makes the file menu when there's an image on your clipboard!

These admin things... they are real and they are neverending. And they ALWAYS happen off-screen.

This feels like something I have to learn over and over again. Also helpful to question whether "perfect" is actually so. Often I find this to mean, "what I personally would do in an ideal world where there are no time/money/focus trade-offs." Starts to make perfect seem crazy.

I pulled this ordinary pitcher from my special baseball card binder to post on @junkcardboggs.bsky.social — my child self was convinced it would be worth something.

Could that just be Chapter One?

I agree with your critique, however blunt.

How many windows? How many tabs in each? How many reflexive keystrokes as you swap between them?

The only thing between Modesto and Fresno is lots of farmland… and Steve Whitaker’s childhood. Whitaker was drafted by two NorCal teams: the 30th round by the A’s out of high school and 1st round by the Giants three years later. 92 Topps goes horizontal with this prospect who never made the majors.

Yeah, that's addictive. And it can't be good for the chickens!

Can the Giants and Padres gang up on You Know Who? Is that a thing in baseball?

Just once I'd like to get an "unfriendly reminder" text for an appointment. What do you think that would look like?

I was asked on a podcast to name my favorite tools. Bashfully, Google Docs topped my list mainly for the same reasons you mention.

I enjoy not standing the first 50 minutes of each hour, just so I can force my watch to say “you did it!” when I do.

Great watch/listen! I think your no code comparison is apt. More people are able to access more pieces than ever. AI certainly helps us figure out how to put them together, but there's still a lot of meaning that a human brings to all those pieces.
