    OTT

    The OTT list that I promised last week is still pending.

    Personal Health

    The throat infection has dragged on. I am back on anti-infectives. This has affected my output this week as well.

    Tinkle 10 year digital subscription

    I took a 10 year digital subscription to Tinkle. I want to try and read this together with Kid 1.

    Bullet Journal

    I liked Hiran’s adaptation of the BuJo that he mentioned in his newsletter. I am now trying it out.

  • Weekly Notes 02/2023

    I have been reading Thejesh’s Weekly Notes for more than a month now. I think this would be a nice way to round-off my non-work stuff.

    Bullet Journal

    I have kept a bullet journal since 2017. I have followed the dotted grid journal since I started. I bought three dotted grid journals last year but was disappointed by the quality of the dots. Some were too bright. Some were too light. I decided to switch to a square grid journal. I am enjoying journaling in this journal.

    The square grid also helps with my eyesight.

    Personal

    Kid 2 has been keeping me busy. This week I wasn’t able to support my wife with night time child care as I had a throat infection which led to a case of cough. This also kept me away from work for the first three days of the week. I was mostly sleeping.

    Tweets

    This section may not survive long. When I stop tweeting, I get emails from Twitter which point me to a few interesting tweets. Over the weeks, the emails have become much better at pointing out what tweet I might read. So, I mostly read those tweets only.

    YouTube

    I have moved from watching the more popular YouTubers to watching an interesting second-tier of creators whose videos I like to watch. These include My First Million, Paul Millerd, Chalchitra Talks (and their sister channel Kitaabi Cabins), Matt Ragland, Jared Henderson, struthless and Money Malayalam.

    Two videos that I enjoyed watching this week:

    OTT

    I watched a bunch of stuff on OTT which I have still not compiled here. I will put them together in a different post and link to it here in the future. I will remind you about it next week, in case you forget.
