I love this sentence about DevOps "Somehow it seems easier for people to relate to technology than culture, and the technology started working against the culture."
I use a pen and a cheap notebook (A7, squared). I organize different topics (e.g. work, personal, etc) in different pages. For tasks I follow the basic bulletjournal ideas.
I tried to use technology before (particularly a smartphone), but the UX still sucks compared to the pen and paper. For long texts, typing on a screen is too slow. For small texts, the unlock-open the app-type cycle is annoying.
I propose a new "standard" role="bullshit" to the W3C. Developers around the world could use it to mark those bullshit fragments of their pages. Users could filter them with a browser plugin "Bullshit Block".
