Field notes
Michael describes a day split between an office job and evening app work: when others close their laptops, he opens his. The homepage turns that routine into a commit-style ticker, with entries about a switched-off monitor, shortened lunch break, and a bird in the rendering. Its app list spans several small workflows; the Mac time tracker and meeting companion are marked as waiting in the wings, rather than presented as completed launches.
