Boing Boing: New police guide­lines: shoot sui­cide bomber sus­pects in head (reported heav­ily a lot of other places).Following the recent killing of an inno­cent elec­tri­cian in Lon­don, the ‘sus­pected’ part makes you think.Beside (as noted in the Boing Boing post) mak­ing me recon­sider my choice of cloth­ing — maybe I should just stay indoors, keep­ing my skin pale, and go for a more innocent-looking touristy non-gadget-carrying style — it seems as if this approach is incred­i­bly short-sighted.For how long exactly will suicide-bombers con­tinue to look sus­pi­cious prior to set­ting off their bombs?

All of us wannebe-hackers seem to find great joy in the fact, that every­thing in life actu­ally is hack­able; you can tweak your habits and your mind just as you can tweak your data­base or your OS of choice.GTD, ‘hacker’-blogs and var­i­ous books on self-hacking is all the rage, and I cer­tainly have read my part of the almost oblig­a­tory list of must-reads.

…or rather: I find it rather amus­ing (and strangely com­fort­ing), that when you trip over some­thing like this, you can be pretty sure, that it’s already fea­tured on Boing Boing and you just didn’t pay atten­tion at the time.

Fit­ter, happier…GTD-fans will already know about 43Folders and the 43FoldersWiki (pro­duc­tiv­ity OSX hints, yes yes), To-Done (which at time of writ­ing has some advice on being a more pro­duc­tive blog­ger, how about that) and sev­eral other related sites are start­ing to shoot up.In short, GTD is very much about man­ag­ing incom­ing stuff; get­ting it done at once, del­e­gated or put some­where where you’ll come back and do some­thing about it.… It is pos­si­ble how­ever, to imple­ment some of it with­out going totally OCD.Allen’s book, while a lit­tle self-help-book-ish (which is even more the rage), offers some decent ideas for man­ag­ing your flow, but — as it has been critized for else­where — some­what puts ‘online’, ‘at the com­puter’ etc. in seper­ate cat­e­gories of work­ing, not tak­ing fully into con­sid­er­a­tion that a lot of us basi­cally live out of our lap­tops, mak­ing this way of think­ing not quite accu­rate.
