This week, I want to share three random things I found cool recently.
1️⃣ The first is an awesome scratchpad called Antinote. It costs $5 (the first week is free), and it’s worth it.
I believe you also sometimes need to copy chunks of text here and there and maybe do some small manipulations with it. What do you use for that purpose? I used to rely on
Sublime Text, but Antinote is even more lightweight and comes with some great features built-in, no extra plugins needed.2️⃣ I recently finished listening to the book Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks.
In this book, the author explores how music is integrated into our brains and stimulates us in different ways. #longstoryshort — it’s integrated a lot. One interesting point he mentions is that music can actually improve your work and help you stay focused. I often listen to something while working, and I agree, it really helps.
Recently, I discovered 🎵this track from the Succession TV series, and I love it. You should give it a try too.
3️⃣ Finally, there’s an awesome talk about the current state of space exploration from the perspective of the European Space Agency (ESA).
Yes, European — not NASA! It turns out that ESA is also doing a lot: amazing ongoing experiments and some super interesting plans for the future, all aimed at learning more about our universe. I highly recommend watching it, at least to understand what gravitational waves are and how incredible it is that we can now detect them (they literally bend spacetime!).
When you have something interesting to share too, feel free to drop it in the comments!
