I'm going to start writing down all the links I share individually with friends here, and jot a little blurb about each one. We'll see how long I can keep it up! - Shared this one with a friend who runs a NAS at home and already has multiple terabytes of data hoarded. [Western Digital Plots a Path To 140 TB Hard Drives Using Vertical Lasers and 14-Platter Designs - S…](https://hardware.slashdot.org/story/26/02/05/175200/western-digital-plots-a-path-to-140-tb-hard-drives-using-vertical-lasers-and-14-platter-designs?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed) - Giving AI agents the ability to "rent a human" seems really weird. I get it, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. [RentAHuman.ai - Hire Humans for AI Agents | MCP Integration](https://rentahuman.ai/) - I fall into this a lot. I like jumping into new ideas and trying things out, but hadn't ever taken serious consideration how much that jump impacts other things in my day. Had a long talk with a colleague about time management skills and this seems to fit right in. https://kadavy.net/blog/posts/the-hidden-cost-of-shiny-object-syndrome/ - This is weird. I don't know much about Moltbook right now, but it's something I want to investigate further. https://stackdiver.com/posts/the-3am-test/ - My friend with the homelab and media likes micro computers, so I shared this. https://blog.armbian.com/friendlyelecs-nanopc-t6-plus-the-flagship-edge-computing-powerhouse-and-media-station/?ref=news-from-armbian-newsletter - So, I have a friend that has been asked by a reasonably sized business to offer some guidance and consulting. I sent him this after he and I talked about how much he should charge. He was sharing a real low "employee" number, and I was pushing him towards "consultancy" numbers. So this gives a little data for both sides to work with. https://pointc.co/know-your-number/ - I bought one of [these](https://getbrick.app/) this week. I'm so tired of distractions caused by my phone. It'll be here tomorrow and I'm sure I'll share about it. - I have a client that we have to do this with all the time. They like to just skim what we send, so we have to be very particular with the choice of words. https://sketchplanations.com/front-load-key-words - Shared with a friend looking for new and fun things to read. https://kagi.com/smallweb/ - I kept this link because it gives me something to go back to when I am worried about my "writing." I know how; I know why; I just still struggle with doing it. https://mylesmarino.com/posts/writing.html - Speaking of just doing it. The concept of "just do stuff" is so important. We live in a world that we're so worried about being judged by others we often don't allow ourselves the freedom to "just do it" https://spicermatthews.com/blog/just-do-stuff/ - There is always something new about AI. People are trying to explain process and efficiency in ways that helps others to at least give it a try. This article is very code-centric, but the concepts can be applied elsewhere. Right now, I don't know how I would benefit from these concepts, but they have my own wheels turning and thinking.
