One aspect of playing ukulele that often gets overlooked is the actual technique of strumming. Learn how to strum ukulele with these 6 strumming tips and tricks.

• The thumb can often create the warmest and most tender sounds of the ukulele. Don’t try to “hit” the ukulele, but rather, rake your thumb across just like a harpist might glide along their strings.

• imagine the movement you make when you turn a doorknob. Minimize your movements by aiming to strum between the top and bottom strings, instead of strumming from above the body to below the body. Try to use the center of your nail when strumming with your index finger.

I started monthly sketchnote meetups at my new job after giving a sketchnote workshop there last month. We had our first meetup yesterday and talked about how to add simple cartoons to sketchnotes. I made a one-page reference to guide the meetup. Of course lots of inspiration from Bruce Blitz and Jack Hamm. #sketchnote #cartoon #drawing #illustration #visualnotes #community

If you don't need the portability of a laptop, here's something that gets you more for your money.

That’s because the mini PC can forego the costs of other elements that aren’t included: display, keyboard, mouse, speakers, battery, etc. If you already have all that stuff, or if you plan to equip your laptop with lots of external peripherals, then you’re wasting money with a laptop.

The physical design of a laptop determines how air flows through the laptop, which affects cooling. Laptops have to balance heat management with performance. Meanwhile, mini PCs can shape themselves however they want — and with more effective cooling, they can push their components further and eke out more performance.
