If you recently upgraded to MacOS Sonoma, you might have noticed the caps lock indicator hovering around your input fields. But there is good news, two quick commands is all it takes to get rid of it – you run them in the terminal. Requires reboot for it to take effect.

sudo mkdir -p /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain
sudo /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Add 'redesigned_text_cursor:Enabled' bool false" /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain/UIKit.plistCode language: Bash (bash)

Remember when the EU nearly ditched daylight savings before the pandemic paused everything? As a parent, I know how tough the time change can be on kids. This year, I tried something new based on Matthew Walker’s ‘Why We Sleep’. We gradually shifted our bedtimes and wake-up times by 15 minutes per day (half the circadian rhythm’s adjustment limit) combined with smart bulbs that simulated the sunrise. Result? A completely smooth transition.
