Hook- Using Hook with the Craft Mac Writing App

NB: This integration currently requires macOS Big Sur, as noted below. Please make sure you have the latest Hook integration scripts (version 165 or newer) in Hook > About (or its Update tab). You may need to do Hook > Preferences > Update > “Check Now”. That will update the integration with Craft (if is not up-to-date.)

Craft is a relative newcomer to the world of note-taking, writing and document-creation apps, but its beautiful UI and rich feature set have led many Mac users to adopt it. Its developer clearly values integration with other apps and services, and has growing support for automation of these integrations – allowing you to stay “in flow” while you’re working in Craft.

From its first release, Craft has supported bidirectional linking and backlinks. In addition to allowing users to copy a link to any page, its Copy Deeplink and Copy Markdown Deeplink features let you copy links to blocks, cards or sub-pages within documents.

Hook enables you to bidirectionally link Craft pages, blocks, cards or sub-pages to just about anything else on your Mac, including other files and folders throughout your system. They are connected via a hook – a bidirectional link that is visible whenever you invoke Hook on either item in the link.

You can also paste links obtained through Hook into Craft to connect files, folders, emails, tasks, contacts cards and other resources to your Craft documents.

How to copy links in Craft for use with Hook (Copy Link and Copy Markdown Link)

There are two ways to copy a link from Craft. With either method, have your Craft document open and the window selected. Then, either:

  1. Invoke Hook in your preferred manner, then press ⌘C or choose Copy Link or Copy Markdown Link from the menu, as shown below. This will copy the link to the current Craft document. OR

  2. Use Craft’s own link copying capabilities, by selecting or placing your cursor in any Craft block and either using File menu > Copy Deeplink (or File menu > Copy Markdown Deeplink) or ⌘/Right Click and choosing Copy Deeplink (or Copy Markdown Deeplink) from the contextual menu.

Success Doesn't Happen Overnight: Reasons To Not Rush Your Life

A blog post for Marcus Lemonis’s website, marcuslemonis.com

I’m going to be straightforward here: Success doesn’t happen overnight – for anyone. And that’s okay, because slow and steady work leads to success that is sustainable in a way that nothing “overnight” can match.

Recent history is filled with highly successful people who worked hard for years before achieving their dreams. Take James Dyson, of the vacuum cleaners and hand dryers. He changed the vacuum industry and is working to change other industries as well. But he spent 15 years going through more than 5,000 failed prototypes before creating his first successful vacuum cleaner.

First Study on LGBTQ People and Vaccine Reluctance

Press release for Out Boulder County

VIEW ON THE OUT BOULDER COUNTY WEBSITE

Out Boulder County has completed what may be the nation’s first survey of COVID-19 vaccine reluctance among LGBTQ people. The survey offers a look into the attitudes of a community that has often gone unseen in public health efforts because information about sexual orientation and gender identity is rarely collected in federal, state or local health data. For example, there are no questions about sexual orientation or gender identity on the U.S. Census, and the Department of Health and Human Services rarely collects this information in its public health surveys or other data gathering.

“If LGBTQ people are not identified in data collection, we cannot be seen by public health agencies, hospital systems and other health care organizations,” said Mardi Moore, executive director of Out Boulder County, which provides advocacy, services, programs and support to Boulder County’s LGBTQ communities. “If they don’t see us, we don’t exist, and getting resources allocated to us is nearly impossible. Sexual orientation and gender identity have to be part of the data that health organizations collect,” she added.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Aug. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Women Executive Leadership (WEL), a nonprofit dedicated to gender parity in the boardroom and the C-suite, has expanded its programming to offer Boardroom Briefings for members of public and private company Boards of Directors. These invitation-only briefings bring together experts and board members of all genders to delve into important topics being discussed in boardrooms.

The first Boardroom Briefing, held July 13, brought together directors from more than two dozen companies in an open dialogue with each other and an expert on environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics. Participants noted that the conversations and connection with directors from other companies were invaluable.

The Boardroom Briefings, run by WEL’s new Advocacy Committee, are a natural extension of the organization’s work. For more than 20 years, WEL has empowered women leaders with a variety of training and preparation to advance their careers, position themselves to join boards of directors and connect with potential board opportunities.
