As promised, I’ve transformed the CLI version into an app, making it even more user-friendly for you. Introducing the new version of Focus, now part of the Alfred Assist app. You can download Alfred Assist HERE, and find setup instructions in the project repo HERE. Once installed, launch the app effortlessly, just like any other Mac application. https://7ekkno.com/blog/focus-unleashed/ Mon, 20 Nov 2023 00:00:00 +0000 https://7ekkno.com/blog/focus-unleashed/ Are you like me, constantly bombarded by notifications on your Apple device, but hesitant to turn them off completely? Fear not, because I’ve got the perfect solution for you – introducing “Focus” a tool I’ve crafted to enhance your concentration while you’re on your Mac laptop. I know the name isn’t very original, but this is just the first of a suite of tools that I’m building. A little bit of background, in case you haven’t noticed from my site, my work is in DevOps/SRE/Platform engineering and as such requires me to be aware of any issues to the services and teams that I support. https://7ekkno.com/blog/fosbury-flop/ Sun, 08 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0000 https://7ekkno.com/blog/fosbury-flop/ Fosbury Flop The Fosbury Flop may sound like the wacky name of a dance they would do in the 50’s, but it’s actually a high jump technique used in track and field. It was popularized by American athlete Dick Fosbury at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City, where he won a gold medal using this technique. Before Fosbury attempted his Flop, the method for clearing the bar was one form or another of going feet first.
