Ram Dass - Be Here Now
Amazing book with mind blowing illustrations about life, purpose and spirituality. Changed my life. Every time I re-read it I discover something new.

How does this compare with the Dasung Paperlike 25.3?
Looks like the same E-ink display, but perhaps different driver?

Get a single 43” 4K monitor.
Then use a window manager that allows to automatically arrange windows. I build my own using Hammerspoon on macOS.
Great productivity upgrade.

Confirmed: Build a 30k pages site with Hugo in 53 seconds, including grabbing JSON content from Contentful and deploy on AWS S3.
Took some effort to get everything under 60 seconds, speed was the main reason to use Hugo.

In the Masters of Scale podcast (1) Eric Schmidt told Reid Hoffman in september that COVID-19 is limiting his ability to do what he loves to do to the extent that he shifted his main focus to COVID-19. One of the reasons for this was his decreased ability to freely move around and meet people.
Getting a EU passport makes moving in the EU a lot easier.

Buy a Thinkpad and install Hackintosh.
I was so done with both the MacBook and MacBook Pro keyboards that I bought a Lenovo Thinkpad T480s. Installed Hackintosh, running the latest macOS Mojave 10.14.5 without issues (only drawback is that the Touchpad on the MacBooks are better).
Finally I can type again.

Second that T480s, love it. 24GB RAM, 2TB SSD. Booting OpenBSD, macOS and Linux. Scaling on WQHD display works solid. Only drawback is that the WWAN (4G) only works under Linux and the touchpad is not as good as in a MacBook Pro.
