The action button isn't a great camera shutter button
I started using the action button for the camera, but this is not the best choice. It’s fine for opening the camera (I quite like that), but as a shutter it doesn’t work (for me). I find I put my finger too close to the lens and so it can sneak into photos, especially when used one handed. Plus, it’s just not a comfortable position. It would be better if a) the volume down was the action button. b) it was under the power button on the other side c) Maybe on the bottom left hand corner or top right hand corner for two handed use? I think I’m going to switch to using it with a shortcut, maybe some sort of quick capture system.

iPhone photographers. What’s your favourite editing app? I’ve used darkroom for a long time and snapseed before that. I’ve got a tone of legacy VSCO filters but I hate the import / export process. @maique @pcora @jemostrom @zsbenke @numericcitizen
People who use third party camera apps on the iPhone: What’s your favourite?
I’ve basically just used the stock camera for years but I’m interested in using a third party one again. Is Halide the best?
Touch typing feels like a superpower…
Until you look up from the text you’ve been copying and realise your finger was one space off and now you have lines and lines of gobbledegook.
Yes, it just happened.
Just wanted to say thank you everyone for your kind words, thoughts and prayers. Everything did go well and smoothly and my son’s been running around like nothing happened at all. I’m really grateful for your messages and encouragement even if I didn’t reply at the time. @rcrackley @odd @aa @danalcantara @KyleEssary @maique @crossingthethreshold @V_ @philbowell
And we’re heading home.
He’s out of surgery, sleepy but seems okay. We might even get to go home today.
This is just a small surgery and yet it’s wrecked me emotionally. I don’t know how parents whose kids have more serious conditions do it.
A hike through ojców national park
Yesterday my team at work decided to do a more unusual team building than the typical go karting or axe throwing that happen in IT companies across krakow. Instead, we walked through a national park and had grilled trout, caught from the river.
It was a great, relaxing time.
In the evening, we went for a more traditional outing — contemporary Israeli cuisine — but the park was the real star.
The current chapter in my intro to hermeneutics books is just footnote after footnote for Vanhoozer’s “Is there a meaning in this text?” Almost makes me wonder why we were issued with that book! (I have that book too!) although the application exercises are very good.
Morning coffee.
I went to work with my colleagues in town today for the first time in 3 months (or more)…and my new phone was finally delivered. Sod’s law.
Went to krakow this morning. Came back with an obwarzanek.
Just cooked this amazing sweet potato and chickpea stew. Highly recommend.
What’s a book you want to read, but you just never seem to actually read?
Or is that just me?
Off to pickup my Nikon Z50 which has finally been repaired. Very happy to get this back.
Obsidian users…is there a way to automatically link a new note to your day note? I’ve taken to interstitial journaling and I wonder if I can automate this part.
I think I want a bumbag (no American’s, I will never use the name you call it!) …especially as i’m likely to have an ungodly 6.7" phone this year. Any one got a recommendation for a good one?
