Every Tuesday I share five things I've liked and think you might like too. Here are this week’s Five Things…

1. If you're a learning something new and having a tough time: "It’s worth remembering that if someone knows how to do something, that means, with sufficient effort, you could probably learn it too." — Learnable

2. I like this idea. Something musicians do all the time! — Don’t quote. Make it yours and say it yourself.

3. I can't remember which was the first version of FIFA that I played, but it's quite a trip down memory lane looking back over older versions of the game. It's amazing how far the technology behind games has come in such a short period of time — Fifa 20: From 1994-2020 how the game has changed over the years

4. Talking of games, the recently released Untitled Goose Game is excellent — Untitled Goose Game is a honkin’ good time

Every Tuesday I share five things I've liked and think you might like too. Here are this week’s Five Things…

1. I'm really enjoying Apple's recently released Apple Arcade. It's a subscription service to 100+ games on Apple devices. It's currently available as a one month free trial so worth taking for a spin. My early favourites are Mini Motorways, What The Golf and Cards Of Darkness — Apple Arcade

2. Every 21st September Demi Adejuyigbe makes a video. This one is particularly excellent — September

3. Tim Ferriss had Tristan Harris on his podcast last week. Tristan is the co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology, which wants to "reverse human downgrading by realigning technology with our humanity" (a fancy way of saying "make technology work better for the people that use it"). I've heard a few interviews with Tristan and he's always interesting and thoughtful — The Tim Ferriss Show #387

4. Think you've got rhythm? Put yourself to the test — Got Rhythm?

5. I recently started teaching myself bass guitar. If you just happen to be learning bass too, check out Adam Neely on Youtube. He has some great videos on bass technique and general musicianship. — Adam Neely

2. I'd never really appreciated how great the bass line is in Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell's version of Ain't No Mountain High Enough. The visualisations really bring it to life — Watch Animated Visualisations of the Bass Lines for Motown Classics

3. I'm firmly in the second camp on this — Should we take a few long holidays, or lots of short ones?
