Interviews, profiles, and features published elsewhere.
A panel with linkarzu, Lazar Nikolov, and Joshua Blais on what making tech content is actually like — our setups, the grind of publishing, fitting it around a real life, and the toll of trying to stay relevant.
A video where I walk linkarzu through installing and configuring sesh as a replacement for tmux-sessionizer, then get into the rest of my developer workflow — the macOS apps and CLI tools I reach for, and why.
A conversation with Amy Dutton about moving development into the terminal — getting past the fear of it, why a PDE beats an IDE, the keyboard shortcuts and automation that make it pay off, and whether the whole approach is worth it for every developer.
An interview with Adib Hanna about what's in my dotfiles — the Neovim setup and why a graphic design background shows up in the colorscheme, `t` for jumping between tmux sessions with zoxide and fzf, and the plugins and apps that surround them.
A profile in ZSA's People series about how I work on a Moonlander — the vim-inspired layout with Escape on Caps Lock, the fish, tmux, and Neovim terminal setup behind it, and the desk it all sits on.
An article I wrote about staying current without burning out — the newsletters, blogs, podcasts, and courses worth following, why you should spread your sources around, and permission to take a break when it all gets to be too much.
An interview walking through my desk, Mac, and iPhone at the time — the Herman Miller Embody and IKEA-hacked standing desk, the front-end stack I built with, and the apps I leaned on daily like Todoist, YNAB, 1Password, and Drafts.
A podcast I co-hosted with John Cooper across 27 episodes — productivity as something bigger than office efficiency, told through honest stories about purpose, stress, and energy, with systems and tools we'd actually tested.
A tutorial I wrote on pointing CodeKit 2.0 at a local WordPress install running on MAMP, so saving a file injects the new styles and refreshes every browser — including phones and tablets on the same WiFi — without writing any config.
An article I wrote for the Productivity Chat publication about running a job search out of a single Trello board — seven lists to move each opportunity from Potential to Yes, labels for the kind of work, and an activity log on every card so nothing falls through the cracks.
A tutorial I wrote introducing BEM — how splitting CSS class names into blocks, elements, and modifiers gives a stylesheet a structure you can read, and how it pairs with a preprocessor like Sass to cut the duplication.
A tutorial I wrote on making Sublime Text easier to look at all day — the built-in font and line-highlight settings, plugins like BracketHighlighter and Git Gutter, and themes such as Soda and Spacegray.
A tutorial I wrote on writing CSS with Emmet — property abbreviations, values, units, and colors, chained together so `taj` expands to `text-align: justify` and a whole rule falls out of a few keystrokes.
An article I wrote explaining what a CMS actually is and how the options sort themselves out — open source like WordPress and Drupal, hosted platforms like Squarespace, blogging and ecommerce specialists, file-based systems, and site builders — with a sense of which fits a personal blog versus a corporate site.
