I've been asked by a few colleagues how I manage to read so much, so I thought I'd just write this up once so I can link to it later. :~)

First, here are a few articles that touch on some of the keys to how I read so much and how I make sure I remember the important bits:

I can’t say I follow these exact principles – among other things, I’m definitely less diligent about some of my reading than what they outline. But that’s a conscious choice in many (but not all) cases.

	#!/usr/bin/env bash

	set -euo pipefail
	shopt -s inherit_errexit

	# Make sure HandBrakeCLI is in the path -- I've got it installed in ~/bin for now
	# since it disappeared from Homebrew
	PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
	MOVIES=$HOME/Movies
	NAS_DIR=/Volumes/Media/Movies
