31\. Mar. 2025 This is my /now page and is something I got inspired from Derek Sivers. The idea is to write something short, something “you’d tell a friend you hadn’t seen in a year.” Last Update: March 2025 Where I am ---------- I am still living in the Den Haag, Netherlands, together with my wonderful wife Sarah. Trying to make a new website while participating in the Full-Stack TypeScript & React Bootcamp from Flavio Scopes. What I am doing --------------- It took ages to update my website, the last update was probably sometime last year when I recreated the page with Hugo. But I’m not happy with Hugo, so I’m going to try something new. This time I created my website with Astro. It’s a site generator written in TypeScript, and togethe rwith Tailwind CSS, it is a great combination. In my more or less 9-to-5 job, I’m a software engineer and I’m trying to get into DevSecOps. We use Java, TypeScript and Python to make software for our customers. We set up services in Docker and Kubernetes for our internal development team to keep them happy. Getting fit ----------- Since last September, we have a Running Pad at home and I am doing well in terms of fitness. As well as trying to run at least 20 km each week, I can fold it and also move it under my desk and walk while I work. It was one of the best decisions we made at the end of last year. What I am reading ----------------- Currently I am reading the Bootcamp script and the TypeScript Handbook. I am also reading Clean Code book to get a better understanding of how to write clean code. When I have some spare time, I am reading through Derek Sivers Book How to Live. _A masterpiece. The best thing he’s ever made._ I have to say it definitivly has 27 conflicting answers. Did not get to the conclusion yet. I also started with Kill Decision from Daniel Suarez. I don’t know if I can finish it, as I am not a regular reader and it is a bit difficult get back into the story when you have to put it down for a while. © 2025 cbrueggenolte.de. All rights reserved.

Updated: _Sunday 3/30/25 on the anniversary of the first C3 and after an incredible spring-like Saturday_ Below is a snapshot of some of the core things that occupy my time and mind **now** (in no order): **LIFE** * In general, life is really, really good. I am feeling more connected to my life than I have over the last few months. Said another way, _my heart is more in life._ I am experiencing more highs and lows, and general emotional range. I am feeling more things, like allergies unexpectedly flaring up yesterday haha. I am more open to sharing my feelings on topics that I may not have as much previously. I am choosing to speak up more and have hard conversations. I think this is all a good thing, especially as an enneagram 2. **MINI-CONFERENCES** * In mid-March, I cohosted the Strategic Storytelling Summit with Terry Rice. Around December 2024, I was looking for a spark and this was it!  **WILLIAMSBURG** * This neighborhood is magic for me. Walking around and bumping into friends is SUCH A GIFT. If you see me, say hello! Living here and living in the same place since 2017 continues to pay incredible dividends in my life.  **WORK** * Things at the Chief of Staff Network are going well. I spend a lot of time on our events, including remote ones. Going into an office more recently has been a nice quality of life boost. The skills I am using personally transfer over well to my day job too. As an example, I host our Chief of Staff podcast and that likely would not have happened with me having my own show. Alignment and integration like this feels good! **RANDOM THINGS I AM LOVING** * This, this, this, this, this for working, group chats, containers with friends, and waffle wednesday If you read this (thank you), please say hello on Instagram, LinkedIn, or over email if you want! What are you doing NOW? I would love to hear from you! **This is inspired by** **Derek Sivers’ Now page and movement****.**

What am I doing now? 2025-03-30# ----------- Spring has sprung! It’s gardening, yard work, and pollen time. Trying to create more and leaning into writing as a creative outlet.

Added _Goldfinger_ by Ash (from the album _1977_) to favourite tracks. VirtualRide: Distance: 0.0km Elevation Gain: 0m Moving Time: 01:00:00 Average Speed: 0.0km/h View ‘Weekend workout’ on Strava Blog 30th Mar 2025 link Quarterly review ---------------- I've written about my personal productivity process before. Considering that original article was published over seven years ago, I've been remarkably consistent in applying that same process; virtually nothing I talked about has changed in the intervening time. This year, though, I have introduced a new process into the mix. And, so far, it's proving very beneficial indeed. Read full blog post Step By Step Mixing: How to Create Great Mixes Using Only 5 Plug-ins -------------------------------------------------------------------- Matthew gave 4 stars to Step By Step Mixing: How to Create Great Mixes Using Only 5 Plug-ins (Audio Issues #1) by Bjorgvin Benediktsson Comprehensive and well-structured for the most part, with enough information to make you feel like you at least understand a little bit of what you're doing with the most common plug-ins. The book suffers from the same issues as any self-published one, namely poor formatting and the lack of an editor, but it's far easier to refer back to than a thousand YouTube tutorials. Ashenden -------- Matthew gave 3 stars to Ashenden (Paperback) by W. Somerset Maugham Allegedly a more accurate depiction of the wartime spy game than many other writers, but that does tend to mean that there's not much exciting going on for quite a lot of the time. Her, 2013 - ★★★★ ---------------- Watched on Tuesday March 25, 2025. Read full entry on Letterboxd An essential part of modern-day hotel travel is seeing who has left themselves signed into your smart TV. I hope the French gentlemen who stayed here recently is enjoying his new YouTube recommendations on audio busses and Skyrim mods. Free Guy, 2021 - ★★★ -------------------- Stuffed full of gamer clichés, terrible YouTuber cameos and dreadful overacting from Taika Waititi, but the Chris Evans cameo earns it a bonus point. Read full entry on Letterboxd It took several hours of fiddling, but I finally managed to get a modded, modern-looking version of Skyrim running reliably. Should keep me busy for the next few hundred hours. Added _Seasons (Waiting on You)_ by Future Islands (from the album _Singles_) to favourite tracks.

##### Last updated on March 3, 2025 This is a public list of ideas that I would like to work on someday. This is a copy of the ideas note I have in my Obsidian vault, where I jot down interesting projects, concepts, and thoughts that I find intriguing and might want to explore in the future. Since it is not practically possible for anyone to work on every idea they have, I thought it would be better to make this note public so that someone else might build it someday. Ideas that I’m currently working on are crossed out and have been moved to my projects page. Against each idea, I’ve added a short description to provide more context. If you are interested in any of the ideas mentioned below and want to work on them or collaborate with me, feel free to contact me. In case any of the ideas already exist, please let me know, and I will cross them out with a backlink to the project. **Vape with a Puff Limiter**A vape that lets you set the maximum number of puffs you can have in a day via an app or something! Looks like another person has thought about the same .**A Search Engine for Personal Blogs**I’m unable to search for content in personal blogs on google or any other search engine. Kagi small web is there, but it’s not personal blog specific.**A World Travel Lottery**A lottery with the grand prize as a fully-expensed, world travel package to visit n countries across all continents**Cricket Guard Line Projector**If you watch cricket, you can see batsmen often marking guard lines against the stumps by asking the umpire. Why can’t we have a laser projection of the stumps controlled by the umpire with a remote?**A cheap running tracker**There are multiple running trackers that you can attach to shoes, like Stryd , but these are quite expensive. Why is it so hard to make cheaper running trackers?**A platform to read both sides of an argument.**A moderated platform where a dedicated page is present for popular topics, and people can read about both sides of the argument.**Indian News Aggregator with relevance**India is struggling with misinformation and rigged news. The magnitude is quite high, considering the huge population, the demographics, and the rising internet penetration. A platform like News Minimalist that removes clickbait titles and filters relevant news would be useful for India.**Global Fish Database in different languages**Fishnames are tricky if you travel around the world. Within a country itself, fish names would be different. A global database of fishnames in all different languages would be great!**Bookmark for Videos & Podcasts**I wish there was a tool to record a particular timestamp on a video or a podcast so that I can watch it from the saved timestamp when I resume, rather than scrolling and finding the time.**Strava for Writers**Strava is a great tool to track your activities. As a writer, such a tool would be great to see the number of words written every day and also get a sneak peek at others’ writings.**About Me Collection**I love reading the About Me sections of various personal blogs. A curated list of the best about pages would be cool.**Evergreen Hosting** People put a lot of effort into their blogs, and most often, after the person passes away, these blogs go obsolete. How about a service that you can pay for one-time or in installments, ensuring that your blog stays live forever? _Update: I wrote about in detail here .

The Daily publishes several special issues every year, including a New Student Orientation issue, a Big Game issue and a Commencement issue. ### The Corporation The Stanford Daily newspaper is the primary holding of The Stanford Daily Publishing Corporation. Founded in 1973, The Stanford Daily Publishing Corporation operates as a California non-profit corporation headed by the paper’s editor-in-chief and business manager. ### History of The Daily The Stanford Daily is the independent, student-run newspaper of Stanford University. The Daily was originally founded as a small pamphlet known as The Daily Palo Alto in 1892 and has been a campus fixture ever since. The Daily strives to serve the Stanford community with relevant, unbiased journalism and provides its editorial, tech and business staffs with unparalleled educational opportunities. The Daily became independent of Stanford University in 1973 after a years-long clash with the administration spurred in part by disagreements over The Daily’s coverage of anti-Vietnam War protests. In particular, a strongly worded 1970 op-ed in the newspaper entitled “Snitches and Oppression,” penned by Diarmuid McGuire M.A. ’73, drew concerns from University administrators that the school might be held liable for any violence incited by the article. Independence for The Daily was thus a logical conclusion for both sides: The Daily’s disentanglement from the University would make it impossible for the University to attempt to influence reporting through financial withholding or other means, and the University’s disentanglement from The Daily would release it of any potential liability for content published in the newspaper. Thus, in 1973, The Stanford Daily Publishing Corporation was incorporated in Santa Clara County as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Independence wasn’t the only consequence of The Daily’s coverage of campus antiwar protests; the publication also drew national attention when it sued James Zurcher, the chief of the Palo Alto Police Department, following a surprise search of The Daily’s offices for photographic evidence of protestors that the student-journalists and legal counsel deemed to be in violation of the First and Fourth Amendments. After a district court and court of appeals ruled in favor of The Daily, the case, _Zurcher v. Stanford Daily_, was brought to the Supreme Court of the United States in 1978, with the nation’s highest court ruling 5-3 in favor of Zurcher. The ensuing outcry among journalists and the public led to Congress’s passage of the Privacy Protection Act of 1980, which established the requirement of a subpoena to search newsrooms for unpublished materials. With the launch of its website in 1995, The Daily became one of the first college newspapers publishing on the Internet. The site is live and continuously updated throughout the year. It features content from the print edition, along with special Web-only content often including live blogs of sporting events and major campus events. The Daily moved out of its old offices in the Storke Publications Building to its new home at the Lorry I. Lokey Stanford Daily Building in 2007, thanks to the generosity of Lorry I. Lokey ’49 and hundreds of other benefactors, which would not have been possible without the titanic effort of Arthur Charles Hoffman ’73 MBA ’76.

We created The Nonprofit Template Shop for nonprofit professionals doing meaningful work with limited time, lean teams, and growing, often competing, priorities. Some of you are communications pros trying to scale your strategy across multiple channels. Others are founders or program staff juggling social media, donor outreach, and impact reporting — often all in the same week! We’ve been there. And we know how challenging it can be to find tools that truly understand the pace, complexity, and heart of nonprofit work. That’s why we exist — to make your job easier, your message clearer, and your visuals stronger. This work is personal for us. Here’s the journey that led us to create tools and services just for nonprofit communicators. Get to Know Sandee Jackson, CNP ------------------------------- ### Shop Founder + Content Director Things I Love My family and friends, iced protein coffee, good movies, great music, and an amazing audiobook Favorite Food Sushi! Thai Food Seafood Favorite Hobbies Working out, evenings out with friends, reading, and trying new restaurants Dream Vacation Paris is always a good idea… Cardio, Weights, or Yoga Pilates!

My top five CliftonStrengths are: intellection, connectedness, input, ideation, and belief. Canva Creators Since Way Back ----------------------------- We’ve been team Canva since the invite-only days of 2013. Before launching The Nonprofit Template Shop, we were nonprofit comms staffers just like many of you. Back then, Canva became our go-to design sidekick. Fast-forward through 10+ years, hundreds of projects, and dozens of nonprofit brand kit setups later, and we’re now proud Canva Creators. We know firsthand how much of a game changer good design tools (and helpful templates!) can be when you’re juggling 62 things at once. Our CORE Values ----------------- #### Community We’re here for the doers — the ones working behind the scenes to make change happen. Supporting nonprofits means we get to work with people who share our values, our drive, and our hope for a better world. #### Co-Creation You’re not alone in this. We love collaborating with nonprofit communicators to co-create tools that actually make your job easier and your impact bigger. #### Commitment We believe everyone has the opportunity and the responsibility to make a difference. That belief keeps us grounded, focused, and fiercely committed to serving nonprofit teams through our work. ### The Hat-Wearer’s Club: You’re in Good Company #### …But enough about us. Let’s talk about you… ##### We feel like we already know you. ##### That’s because we do. ##### We know you because we were you. You’re the person making magic happen with limited time, budget, and capacity. One day you’re building a sponsorship packet. The next, you’re drafting social media posts, tweaking website copy, and trying to fit it all in before a board meeting. We know you’re juggling a lot. We’ve done it too! And that’s why The Nonprofit Template Shop exists. We created this space for nonprofit communicators, as well as founders and executive directors who are juggling _all_ the hats (yes, we see you!). You deserve tools and services that save time, spark ideas, and help you stay focused on the work that matters.
