软件源的更新动态可以看 https://www.ios-repo-updates.com/repositories/popular/ 目前看来除了 BigBoss 还是常青树，其他基本都是新面孔；另外注意到一个趋势是付费插件比例变高了（但也许是我的错觉，因为 iPod 时代我没少用国内盗版源） 目前初步试下来，Packix、Twickd 数量和种类比较全；Chariz、Dynastic 感觉是走 boutique 向，上架数量比较少但是注重设计的插件（但好看未必代表功能完善），昨晚已经交了些学费了）；另外就是一些个人源，比如 MERONA Repo、akusio repo，有很多免费但是功能也不差的插件

MSFT’s sense of humor has always been terribly amazing over the years

It’s ironic that, back in that Nintendo Summer, all I had wanted to do was grow up. And now, one of my greatest comforts comes from being that braces-wearing, dorky girl again, leaping triumphantly past fire-breathing dragons and hammer-throwing turtles.

这期 Everything is Alive 的金句

Ian 问 Eugene（一个纹身）：你有没有听说过一句话叫「美丽都是肤浅的」？ Eugene：没有，不过我就是肤浅的，那这么说我是美丽的咯？谢谢夸奖

以前不太能理解那些把 Word 界面靠 VBA 改得面目全非的做法 现在自己也走上了一样的路 并且明白了大家都是生活所迫

完美回答了一个持久疑问

[Before macOS 10.10,] Activity Monitor’s “Energy Impact” was the same as top‘s POWER measure [, which is a] function of CPU and IDLEW. It’s basically the same as %CPU but with a “tax” of 500 microseconds for each wakeup and an exception for kernel processes.

[Since macOS 10.10,] Activity Monitor consults a Mac model-specific file in the /usr/share/pmenergy/ directory[, which] includes the following factors: CPU usage, wakeup frequency, quality of service class usage, and disk, GPU, and network activity.

What does the OS X Activity Monitor’s “Energy Impact” actually measure? – Nicholas Nethercote https://blog.mozilla.org/nnethercote/2015/08/26/what-does-the-os-x-activity-monitors-energy-impact-actually-measure/comment-page-1/#comment-46775

最近重度依赖 Dark Reader 而且不是为了用来把网页变成黑底白字 而是用来降低网页对比度 并且换成等宽字体 这样相当于一个不那么激进的阅读模式 而且因为不改变网页布局、不涉及判定哪些页面元素属于正文 比一般的阅读模式通用性更好（尤其适合用来对付 The Verge 这种用私有 CMS，又为了所谓前卫感排版设计伤眼到要死的网站，或者维基百科这种等于没有排版设计的网站）

靠 VS Code 看（抄）招股书也是带劲，能文件夹搜索和 regex 不说，SEC 网页复制下来是 tab indented 的，粘到 Word 里惨不忍睹，但是粘到 VS Code 里因为有代码折叠，等于直接白送了一个 outline

上级：检查一下这个文件（大概 100 页）里的英语缩写首次出现的时候有没有注明全称

偷懒方法：全局搜索 [A-Z]{3,}（连续三个或以上大写字母）

又一个被正则表达式拯救的晚上

掏钱买了 Gruber 和 Ben Thompson 的付费播客 中午遛弯的时候听了五六期 感觉不太行 人能输出的观点是有限的 如果一个内容创造者持续增加输出渠道 那么要么每个渠道的信息密度都相应稀释 要么后来的渠道输出的信息很可能只是先前渠道的重述或者混装 《Dithering》 目前看来就属于第二种

这个季节下午拿本书站在树底下边吹风晒太阳边看真的是不能更适合了 就算因此耽误了搬砖之后可能洪水滔天也要及时行乐

切实体会了学命令就要老老实实看 manpage 不要靠各种 tldr cheatsheet 偷懒 今晚从 StackOvewflow 上复制粘贴的命令没一个是能直接用的 因为 GNU 的 awk find xargs 跟 macOS 的没一个一样的

用最近学的半吊子 awk 试着做了一条很丑的 one-liner 解决微信收到的 Word 文件都是只读的问题：

find ~/Library/Containers/com.tencent.xinWeChat -name '*.doc*' -print0 | xargs -0 stat -f "%a%t%N" | sort -r | head -10 | awk 'BEGIN { FS="\t"; } { printf "\"%s\" ", $2 }' | xargs chmod 644

解释：find 找到微信目录下面所有 doc 和 docx 文件；传给 xargs 用 stat 输出找到文件的时间戳和路径；传给 sort 和 head 按时间戳逆序排出前十个（应付同时收到一堆文件的情况）；传给 awk 单挑出来文件路径并且裹在引号里（防止文件名有空格）；最后再传给 xargs 用 chmod 把权限改成 644（rw-r--r--）

好可爱啊这个设计

不得不买

What’s new in the 13-inch MacBook Pro (2020):

The Tool Ring’s introduction isn’t just delayed, it’s player-controlled. The need to purchase gave hours or days of space for player to grok the rest of the game first, and even then players still had to ‘opt into’ adding more complexity by actively choosing to purchase that item.

在 YouTube 上看 ATypI 的讲座 发现自动字幕 坚持不懈地把 黑体（ゴシック）听写成“God, she could” 也算是对 Gothic 这个词一种比较生动的解释了🙄

可能是今年戴口罩闷得太久了吧 现在每次跑步都觉得外面空气好闻到爆炸 像今天这种还下了点小雨的就简直是 porn 级别的体验了

I forgive you your kale salads, your restaurants that sell only oatmeal, your trends. I forgive you your street preachers, your sanctimonious parents who drone on about their children’s schools. I forgive you Macy’s during the Christmas season and Times Square always. I forgive you your ticket-holder lines, your throngs blocking out the paintings at MoMA, your rush-hour subways crammed with humanity. I forgive you the holding of subway doors, your drunks peeing and puking on the street.

Being a New Yorker, I was in a hurry. I was forgetful. You get that. Please forgive me. Please forgive us all. I’ll throw in the pigeons. Forgive you for every one of those awful birds. Just come back, just return, please. I know we can make a deal.

不知道算不算少数做法 一般会建议用 iOS 设备当备用机 装国产毒瘤应用 因为权限严格 但 iOS 设备屏幕太小了 显示国产应用那种密恐布局容易瞎眼 分屏、通知分类管理、去广告这些奇技淫巧也是反而安卓更方便一点 另外普遍图标太丑 放主屏上我嫌脏 所以我都是把国产应用装在安卓二奶机上 全部关在 work profile 里 伺候上绿色守护之类 让他们自己互掐去 我戏称这种做法叫养蛊
