A (very) interesting new browser 6/10/2018

I wasn't too impressed. It's only up to version 0.22.714, and the stable version hasn't been updated in 3 weeks. It's fast but other browsers, like Firefox, have caught up. It still has some UI glitch...

TreeNote - Windows (new) 6/8/2018

That Github page is gone. There's another Treenote at github at https://github.com/TreeNote/TreeNote but I don't know if it's the same project. Also, I came across this blog post https://ma.juii....

Sorting Thoughts? 5/31/2018

It's been out for a loong time, at least 7 years. With the exception of the GANTT chart view(!) it closely resembles DEVONthink, EagleFiler and Evernote. I never saw enough in it to want to try it on ...

The misguided distinction between events and tasks 5/30/2018

Yes, for me calendar events are things I've decided to do at specific times, period. My main disappointment is the anemic nature of reminders in calendars and to-do apps. I'll often have odd-hour mee...

Taking handwritten notes on digital devices 5/27/2018

I expect that at least in part to boost developer enthusiasm at Apple's WWDC in 7 days Apple is planning to announce new iPad Pros at the conference. Last year's models offered improved 20ms touch lat...

SetApp annual pass -- discounted from Creatable 5/27/2018

Yes, as Paul said it just runs a background process to make sure you're registered and possibly to check for app updates. It's pretty innocuous, same as background processes employed by Adobe, Dropbox...

Brackets text editor 5/22/2018

Never used it, was apparently waved off a couple of years back it by someone who described it as an oddball web design editor written in CSS and Javascript that does live preview in (and only in) Chro...

Write Mapper for Mac/Windows 5/21/2018

ultrawide monitors? 5/18/2018
