In an effort to help me keep up with everything I post each week, here is my latest “Sunday Summary” of my posts from the week.

Mon, March 31: Putting out resumes? Have NotebookLM take a look first
This prompt has been great: “We’ll be interviewing this person for senior designer role at our agency. Based on their website and resume, what are some questions we should ask to dig into any interesting areas of theirs?

Tue, April 1: Why is Signal problematic for the government?
If Signal is a solid, secure app, then what’s the problem?

Wed, April 2: Shake it off and change direction
“Sam Walton is less afraid of being wrong than anyone I’ve ever known. And once he sees he’s wrong, he just shakes it off and heads in another direction.”

Thu, April 3: Recording the journey
“How I wish, on just one of those nights, I’d had a tape recorder. Or kept a journal, as I did on my trip around the world.”

Fri, April 4: Friction for you is more friction for the bad guys
Technical security is making all of our lives a bit more difficult. Between two-factor authentication, passkeys, and other technical hurdles, things are getting a bit more complex all the time. However, those little bits of inconvenience for you are much larger inconveniences for those that are trying to hack you.

Sat, April 5: The clarity of a memory doesn’t reflect the accuracy of it
Memory can be a frustrating thing, as I often struggle to find the answers that I know I have somewhere in my head. The more frustrating thing is that even if I have a clear memory of something, that memory might not be accurate. The event that you remember from 20 years ago “like it was yesterday” may have been nothing like what your memory is telling you.

I hope you found some value in this. If you ever have questions, ideas, or disagreements regarding anything I write, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
