Yesterday was the hottest Broken Arrow Skyrace 23k of the four I have run. And the hardest. Sometimes you give it your all and your all is not quite enough. Made it much farther than last year, under worse (hotter, dryer, dustier) conditions.It was already in the mid-70s Fahr...

How to add Google News, Google Books, and Google Scholar search directly in your browser, to search those sites with fewer steps, and less chance of being distracted.One of my hobbies is contributing to Wikipedia, and more so, creating new Wikipedia articles. Citations of rel...
The Snooze Tabs browser add-on is a key technology I use for category 2, defending focus (and prioritizing) from my previous post (link in footer).I noted in the #indieweb informal cafe chat that "I am going to snooze the tab for a month and re-evaluate then" (about purchasin...
Three areas of insights for improving focus, from this afternoon’s long run: needs, defense, techniques.1. Make sure your "needs" are met. If your needs are not being met, you will be distracted from whatever you are trying to focus on by those unmet needs.2. Defend against a...
Sometimes it’s good take a step back and re-assess things from the immediate like daily routines & habits, to how to focus on goals whether within weeks, months, or years. Taking bits of time off to reflect on these and related topics. The grayscale phone interface has helped me get here: https://tantek.com/2026/124/b1/may-the-focus-be-with-you-iphone-grayscale
Ran my 14th Bay to Breakers race in 1:57:12 this past Sunday.Almost 2min behind last year, from needing a 5min+ pitstop at the Panhandle.I skipped public transport (see previous years), and left at 7am to jog to the start. After ~3.5 miles I found my way to corral A and seren...

Last weekend at IndieWebCamp I noticed
James
had setup his iPhone in grayscale.
I think I first saw that on
Jeremy’s
phone years ago.
I remember trying it on my iPod Touch for a while, eventually switching back to see color photos.

@NASA.gov has lots of short Artemis videos on their YouTube channel (@NASA@YouTube.com), however this 10h10m video of the Artemis II lunar flyby appears to be the closest to a continuous long-form recording of the live stream during that period.https://youtu.be/z-j1uxBmis0 Af...

Filed my 2025 taxes today (electronically). Payments mailed (physically).Earliest in at least a decade, maybe two.Took a very conscious and deliberate effort to get here. Prioritizing, cutting or postponing anything non-urgent, iterating and improving systems year over year (especially in coordination with an accountant), collecting clustering materials earlier, and more.Completing these kinds of "required" tasks/projects sooner feels like it frees up mental (and emotional) bandwidth (not having them occupying daily thoughts) to dream, brainstorm, and make more creative things.

Happy Twin Peaks day to those who celebrate!In Agent Cooper’s first appearance in the show, he’s driving a car, right hand on the steering wheel, left hand holding a small black box (a microcassette recorder), that, if you don’t look too closely, could easily be mistaken for ...
at the @CSSWG.org (@CSSWG) F2F (face to face) meeting^1, hosted by @Apple.com (@Apple) in Cupertino. Not counting at #w3cTPAC, the prior #CSSWG F2F meeting I went to was 2.5y ago, also in Cupertino, and before that 2019 in SF.

2026 goals I’ve heard:* Dry January — avoid alcohol* Meatless January — avoid meatIf you have a personal website, how about also:* No Socials January — avoid #socialMedia silosNo posting on social media, just for a month (not counting DMs).Instead, since you have your own website, post there, and see how that feels.If you don’t have a personal website, make it your goal for the month to set one up.
