rumors Some readers may not


Below is a long blog post about 3.5mm audio jack, which I wrote in the early days of iPhone 7 rumors. Some readers may not be interested to read this so feel free to skip it if you are one of them. I was working on the iOS version and there were some changes that made me start thinking more deeply than before about iPhone’s audio port. When Apple first announced the iPhone back in January 2007 (which sounds like years ago now), they used the term “1/8-inch connector” to describe what we commonly call as headphone jack instead of using the word “jack”.…

every time we speak on


Below is a long blog post about 10 things that make me happy. I decided to do this because recently, every time we speak on the phone or hang out in person, my friends ask what’s wrong with me and why I seem so down lately. And honestly? There isn’t anything “wrong” per se; but there are definitely some things going around that have been bothering me…I just haven’t felt like talking about them.…

an interior designer Its not


Below is a long blog post about 7 things that I think are crucial for you to know before hiring an interior designer. It’s not easy to find the right person and it can be stressful if you don’t do your research first! I have been working as an Interior Designer in Brisbane since 2015, however prior to this I studied art (majoring in Sculpture) at university where my focus was on three-dimensional design processes including sculptural installations, assemblage pieces & architecturally influenced work.…

good news that I have


Below is a long blog post about 2014, with some pictures. It’s been another busy year for me but the good news that I have had some time to take photos and do more art in my spare time. Although it was not nearly as much as last year (for reasons which will become apparent below). As well as doing several commissions over this period of time many of them were done at the same time so they all blur into one!…

going into the new year


Below is a long blog post about 2016. The short version: I’m proud of what we accomplished and feel good going into the new year!

Below is a long blog post about 10 years of my experiences with the Linux kernel and its community.

My contributions to date include 754 patches merged into the mainline Linux kernel, including over 300 architectures.…

investment strategy that I do


Below is a long blog post about 401(k) plans, and the pros & cons of a Roth conversion. It’s an investment strategy that I do with many clients – some use it as part of their retirement planning, while others simply want to take advantage of lower tax rates now in order to defer paying more later on when they are retired or have higher income during retirement years than before.…

the Educational Leadership Institute Blog


Below is a long blog post about 10 ways to make your school better. This article was originally published on the Educational Leadership Institute Blog and I have been asked by my friend, Steve Anderson (the author of this article), if he could republish it here at Free Technology for Teachers. He said that many readers of his original post had never read or commented on his other articles so they may be interested in reading some more posts from him even though all of them are not related to education technology topics.…

this as an annual report


Below is a long blog post about 2018, but it’s well worth reading. It was not my intention to write this as an annual report on the company for all of you who may be interested in what we have been up to over these past twelve months and how I see things going forward. However, given that I feel so strongly about why we do what we do at The New Republic (TNR), I felt like there were some important points I wanted to share with you here…before you read any further!…
