I’m an Operational Swiss Army Knife (looking for my next gig) Production, Program & Project Management Executive who builds, launches, and grows high-impact digital experiences. West Texas native who lives in Brooklyn with my wife and 4 year old heat seeking missile of a daughter. — Colby Black, P.I.
PHYSICAL
- ANCEL AD310 Classic Universal OBD II Scanner: Our 8 year old VW has started acting like it. I bought this cheap OBD II reader to read the check engine soon codes it throws now and I feed them into Gemini. “Low Vacuum System” and “Low turbo boost” cause Gemini to diagnose I needed a new gas cap instead of a $3000 turbo.
- ARZOPA Portable Monitor 15.6”: I got one of these second monitors for my laptop. Not too expensive, can throw it in a backpack and totally life changing.
- YETI 20 oz Tumbler: Might be lame and basic, but the 20 ounce Yeti Rambler is just about perfect. NOT leakproof so don’t go tossing it in a bag or carrying it upside down.
DIGITAL
- Sunsama: Sunsama is the only way I can keep things on track at home and work and extra curricular. Shared affiliate link will get folks $20 in Sunsama credits.
- Cursor: I’ve been playing with vibe coding the last year or so and Cursor just feels like sorcery.
INVISIBLE
“Never let short term greed get in the way of long term greed.”
I read this almost 15 years ago and it stuck with me.
