GitHub notifications: tweaking the redesign
I spend my days on GitHub. One of the screens I use the most is the Notifications area, that got redesigned just a few days ago.
As with every redesign, some people love it, some people hate it. When trying the new interface a few weeks ago, I wasn’t happy with some of the changes. I voiced my feedback to the team and moved back to the old interface. That old interface is now gone, so I’ll have to get used to the new one. That won’t stop me from making a few changes to better fit my workflow, though :)
Better late than never! Another year, another recap of all the great (and not so great) shows we’ve watched in the past year!

On Repeat Today: Game of Thrones
If you have followed this blog for a while, it won’t come as a surprise that I’m a big fan of Ramin Djawadi and his work. Prison Break, Westworld, Iron Man, Game of Thrones, and many others. If you’ve watched TV series or movies in the past 10 years, you must have heard some of his work.
Today I’ve put together a playlist of some of my favorite tracks across all 8 seasons of Game of Thrones. You can listen to it right here on this blog, but if you use Google Play Music, you can also check the playlist I created here.

Our small animals
Security cameras can be fun, they can catch interesting things happening while you’re asleep. In action below, 2 of our neighbours, a fox and a beech marten :)

Did you say keyboard?
Doug recently tweeted this:
I…I think I want to build a keyboard.
— Doug (@dougaitken) February 22, 2020
I had the top keyboard but it had a coffee accident, now a few keys don’t work. I’m finding the bottom now too small. I work from my office ~50 weeks of the year so I feel it’s time to get a mouse & keyboard that work for me pic.twitter.com/zWuJoEGQVb
I have opinions on this. :)

On Repeat Today: Billy Ze Kick
This is a blast from the past. It came up in a conversation this weekend. I had to listen to them again today! :)
I discovered Billy Ze Kick as a kid, they were a small band but had catchy tunes that I quickly memorized. I don’t think I really caught up on what the lyrics were really about until much later.
The song below, Mangez moi, was their biggest hit and talks about a small group of friends going on a hike in the rain to find magic mushrooms.
It’s been 26 years, but it’s still as catchy as ever and I still remember the lyrics. Enjoy!

#TeamTrees
I rarely blog about causes and fundraisers, but I’ll make an exception about this one.
🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳
#TeamTrees was launched a few days ago by a few YouTubers I follow. The campaign’s goal is simple: plant 20 million trees until the end of the year. In order to do that, they’ve partnered with the Arbor Day Foundation. You can find out more about the previous work of the foundation here.
They need our help to reach their goal.
1 dollar = 1 tree.
No donation is too small, and it will all go towards a good cause we all need to care about. If you’re like me and travel a lot by plane, that’s a bit you can do to offset your carbon footprint.

BBC’s Essential mixes never fail to deliver. Today, I’m listening to NERO. The whole mix is worth listening, but I think my favorite track is their remix of Radiohead’s Everything in its right place. Enjoy!
Here is the full mix as well!
I’ve been listening to Bonobo’s whole work for the past few days. It’s hard to pick a favorite but here you go :)
