Feedback is a double-edged sword – powerful for growth but tough to hear. Whether it’s improving a skill, leading a team, or refining creative work, feedback is invaluable. Yet, how we react to it can make or break the result.

How to enable automatic updates on Linux / RaspberryPi
I just noticed that I haven’t logged on to one of my RaspberryPIs for quite a while and also didn’t update it. Instead of hacking some root crontab, a quick search brought this thread in the Raspi forums up: crontab update – Raspberry Pi Forums and unattended upgrades – How do I enable automatic updates? – Ask Ubuntu
To keep the Raspberry Pi updated, I just use the following:
sudo apt install unattended-upgrades apt-listchanges sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow unattended-upgrades
Documentation can be found here: Package management | Ubuntu

Commander, Leader, Manager – What’s your Style?
To be honest, I have never really given much thought to defining leadership styles. Over the years, I’ve seen a number of styles that I liked, disliked, admired, and some that I loathed.
Recently, I worked on a project with a person whose approach felt very different from what I was used to. It really stood out and got me thinking about the different leadership styles I’ve seen over the years.

Google’s new Page Annotation feature for its iOS browser automatically changes your website and adds to Google Search results. These auto-added links are not marked as “added by Google” and thus make the links look like I added them myself.
