You should repaste your MacBook (but don't)My favorite memory of my M1 Pro MacBook Pro was the whole sensation of “holy crap, you never hear the fans in this thing”, which was very novel in 2021.

It’s the longest I’ve ever owned a laptop, and while I’d love to pick up the new M4 goodness, this dang thing still seems to just shrug at basically anything I throw at it.

I built something that changed my friend group's social fabricThis is a story that started back in 2022, but I think its a perfect time to reflect on the impact that it has had on my friend group still to this day. A year or so before COVID, our friend group dispersed across the world - I moved to Vancouver, one friend moved to the UK and another one moved to the United States. The rest of them still lived in Melbourne. Once COVID hit, like many others, we looked to find a way to keep in contact and still hang out.
