The Excuses You Need To Stop Making If You’re Serious About Being Happy

The Excuses You Need To Stop Making If You’re Serious About Being Happy:

Excuses comprise the root of much of our self-destructive behavior. People make excuses to prevent themselves from achieving greatness. This is a horrible mistake to make in life because all you are doing is sabotaging yourself. Seize each opportunity…

Banksy Takes Over the Streets of New York

Last week, English street artist Banksy (@banksyny) embarked on a month-long “artists residency on the streets of New York.” The world-renowned—and anonymous—artist is known across the globe for his satirical and often whimsical critiques of government and social issues.

The project, “Better Out than In,” brings Banksy’s signature site-specific stencil art to the streets of New York City and invites the city’s residents to seek out and document the pieces he unveils each day by posting their general location in his captions.

Follow Banksy’s project through Instagram: @banksyny.

Every NFL Offense's Production Visualized By Position.

Every NFL Offense's Production Visualized By Position.:

Very interesting infographic showing the production of each offensive unit from each NFL team. Units are ranked by their DYAR, or Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement.

"It’s a Football metric that compiles the total value a player generates over the course of a year, instead of the slightly better known DVOA."

The article, from Deadspin, says they used DYAR because “we wanted to show how much production each team has gotten from each of its positions, not how well each player has played in whatever snaps he was on the field for.” The more popular DVOA is a rate stat, like the NBA’s PER. So basically, a highly productive five plays would set a player ahead of league leaders.

For one reason, it is one of the funnest and best workout routines that can be done. The amount of dedication and “can-do attitude” required to finish a ride when you’re exhausted and still 30 mins away from your destination is quite a rush in itself.

I’ve really taken a strong interest in biking over the last three months and I found this infographic pretty cool. The graphic was created in partnership with ICDdot and illustrated by Laura Culhane with Text by Sarah Koppelkam for Greatist.

Should I Get A Nexus 7?

I recently responded to a question from a friend of mine who wanted to know about getting a Nexus 7 tablet. He already has an iPhone and thought the Nexus 7 looked nice, seemed to do what he needed from a tablet, and at $230 was a more attractive price than an iPad Mini ($100 more). He said he needs to read books, Nook textbooks and PDF textbooks, create documents in Word/Excel, stream videos and music, and web surfing.

My take

First of all, when comparing with iOS, the Nexus 7 running Android can have only one app can on screen at a time. There are handwritten note-taking apps available on Android in the Play Store and they work with a standard touchscreen stylus pen; but beware, not all apps are created equal.

My concern is would be around the quality of Android’s note taking apps. The absolute best apps debut on iOS before eventually being ported to Android if they are not exclusive to iOS. For example:

The best handwriting and note-taking app I’ve seen is an iOS exclusive called Notability: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/notabili … 93530?mt=8

Evernote’s Penultimate is good too, but mainly because it syncs with Evernote. The handwriting engine on Penultimate is one of the nicer ones available but still not quite as nice as Notability. If handwriting notes is important, there are apps on Android that will get it done, but the best will be on iOS.

I already own an iOS device

For someone who already owns an iOS device, there is also the obvious lack of “native compatibility” between the tablet and an existing iOS device. Although an Android tablet would do everything needed in this case, if I were making this decision I would keep things iOS because of the simplicity of things like iMessage, Reminders, Airdrop, iCloud, and Photostream. Taking a picture from an iPhone and having it almost immediately available on your tablet is very handy. I have been in many sessions when I’ve been taking notes and added pictures to them from whiteboards, charts, etc…

Can cross-platform can be done?

There are several cloud-services like Dropbox, Skydrive, and Google+ Photo Backup available as Photostream or Airdrop substitutes. Google Hangouts can substitute iMessage and Google Docs can substitute for iCloud. Again though, generally apps available on iOS are better than their counterparts on Android – even some of Google’s own apps have seen better versions released on iOS than Android.

Are iOS apps are better?

Developers have said that the Android toolkit for developing apps is lacking in certain areas when compared to iOS tools. Apple has seemingly just put more effort into enabling developers to build quality apps. Apple also maintains application uniformity and holds developers to strict approval standards.

In the end it comes down to how important the apps are to your everyday use. For simplicity in the connectivity between devices, stay with the same OS. For people who are a little more tech savvy, using cross-platform apps may not be much of a hassle at all.
