We’re all stupid busy and it sucks. Tech IT Easy was started under the guise of studenthood which does not in any real way reflect “professionalhood.” 10-hour days are not uncommon in my line of work and it doesn’t leave much space for reflection–the real currency of writing. So here’s what I propose. form a [...]
Looking back at your own writing is hard. It made me take a day’s break (that and lack of sleep) and wonder about whether life (on Tech IT Easy) was worth continuing. It made me question my ability to maintain this blog. Etc. etc. Recaps = hard. You get the idea. But the other thing [...]
It’s funny how our thoughts evolve from one day to the next. Which reminds me that we need to adapt our About page to reflect that a little more, as it’s about 2 years old. My thinking about Always-On Devices comes from a simple pain that I feel when I miss “a moment.” Sometimes I [...]

I think that I’ve said plenty this week about Tech IT Easy and where I would like to see it go. Now, the rest is all about making it happen. You should also take my words with a grain of salt, as I’ve been accused of being very goal-orientated before. Goal orientation is something like: [...]
Trying to digest a cheesy crust pizza this noon, I was wondering if instead of a pizza I was carrying a baby. The good thing was that there would be two of us going back to work, even if the one was rather unqualified to give me hand. What a delight for my pizzababy to [...]
What does “photo editing” mean? Back in the old days, when coming up with a barely recognizable image was considered a feat, it probably meant nothing. Later on, for professionals and pretty skilled amateurs, it meant playing on successive stages of the chemistry process, using special gases that left particular imprints on the negatives, cutting [...]
