Pending dot
With the help of Claude code and based on another plugin, I’ve created a plugin for Obsidian.
It allows you to mark notes as “pending” with an orange circle indicator in your Obsidian file explorer.
Check out the repository in Github.

One world flag
In a similar idea or honouring Sagan’s Pale blue dot, this flag aims to remind us that we are all together in this spaceship called Earth.
In a world characterized by geographical, social and political differences, the One World Flag is a reminder that we all live on the same planet and have a common future. Flags usually symbolize nations, regions or groups, i.e. differences. The One World Flag, on the other hand, has a message for humanity: More unites us than divides us. One World Flag does not want to replace the other flags, but to show that beyond the differences there is also unity. The One World Flag shows a blue sphere in the center, symbolizing our common home, the blue planet. The background of the flag is made of transparent material, which means that it always adapts to its surroundings.
Postponing joy
I’ve learned something important by not postponing joy: Nothing catastrophic happens when you make pleasure a higher priority in your daily life. Instead, it softens the edges of the day, stretches time in the most delicious way, and reminds us that life isn’t something to be earned—it’s something to be lived.

Do Less yet Achieve More
I recently finished reading “Do Less yet Achieve More” by Nicholas Bate.
Worth reading to fully understand and absorb the Pareto principle.
Pros: The personal anecdote at the beginning really opened my eyes to many things.
Cons: This book could have been a blog post.
