Adjust these techniques and pieces of advice to fit your situation
Axiom #1 .... the computer is a powerful search tool and organizational tool when given the chance. Make the search engine your friend.
Axiom#2 ... form a few easy to implement habits. Use these habits every moment of the day.
=====
Put all digital files in "documents folder"
=====
Use tags .... pick a suffix I picked "99" you should pick something else ... like "44" or "00" or "zz"
=========
Physical items should be tagged as DNyyyy"m"mm"d"dd"i"nnn
example: DN2016m08d19i001
DN means document number
yyyy is the year
mm is the month use leading zero for Jan thru September
dd is the day use leading zero for day 1 thru 9
I email myself reminders of various items
I limit the variety of passwords I use ..... someday biometrics will provide a great scheme for locking things down ..... maybe QR codes could be used
I use "777" to tag items on the internet

notes:
use tags put everything in one document folder
use DN document numbers especially for physical items
use refrigerator or dryer as fire safe
put items that would be water damaged into plastic ziplock
Filing
Fire
Fire in the office is a catastrophe. Equipment is wrecked, paper files are damaged , digital data is lost. The #1 thing to do is ..... act immediately ! .... get lots of help .... wash everything with distilled water or other cleaners ( everything including electronics ). Fire creates noxious chemicals that corrode and continue to corrode paper , electronics , fabric , etc. Do not leave unwashed anything that might have "breathed" fumes from the fire. Do this immediately. Turn power off to everything , remove batteries.
It is a good idea to store valuable items in ziploc plastic bags. It is much better to have melted plastic on the item than water , fumes and acid rain ( water and smoke ) .
You can use discarded appliances as cheap fire safes. You can use ovens , microwaves , refrigerators , dryers as fire safes. Put them where you expect a fire to be least intense. You can add padlocks to them for security.
Searching
There are many great search engines for computers. I offer one as an example. Others will work well. HoudauSpot is made for the MacIntosh Computer. It costs around $50. You can buy family paks. It is easy to use and has tons of options for searching. There is a free trial for practicing with. You can find tutorials such as this one.

My workflow for flawless screenshots
Here is my workflow that gives flawless screenshots - although its a bit of work:
1. open a clean white background (e.g. textedit)
2. get your app in front that you want to screenshot
3. SHIFT-COMMAND-4 and find out the X, Y coordinates as well as hight and width of the window you want to screenshot (they are depicted in your cursor) - remember them
4. open a terminal window and make a screenshot with the following command line:
screencapture -T 10 -P -R551,325,1095,647 screenshot.png
- -T 10 means you have 10 seconds time to "prepare" your app (open a menu etc)
- -R means the region that should be captured the coordinates <x,y,w,h> are the ones you found out before
- -P means that it will open in preview so you can check the output
Save this one as PNG.

How to look at the real PDF source behind the 'raw' binary parts
Jay Birkenbilt's qpdf is a very useful commandline tool (available for Linux, Mac OSX and as source code, under the open source Artistic License), which can unpack most filtered content and re-organize the internal structure in a way that gives you much more insight into it (all objects are numerically ordered, etc.). The commandline to achieve this is:
qpdf --qdf original.pdf unpacked.pdf
Another useful and free tool (GPL licensed, but Linux-only AFAIK) to look into PDFs is of coursePDFEdit. This one even comes with a GUI (if you prefer that), while still allowing you access to the internal structure and "raw" PDF code.

Wireless Standards for IoT and WIoT
Often IoT and WIoT require wireless protocols that are wide range and low speed. This is especially true for M2M ( Machine To Machine ) connections. Much effort is going into 5G networking ( as of 2016 ). One set of standards is LTE ( Long Term Evolution )
LTE CAT generic <== link to LTE definitions

2016 Las Vegas IoT Conference xx
2016m07d10 Sunday
Arrived in LV. Gus was hot and tired. CP ( Caesar's Palace ) did not have room ready until 1500 hrs. Gus collapsed.
2016m07d11 Monday
We learned we were not accredited as press. We can attend keynotes and panel discussions. No freebie food.
2016m07d12 Tuesday
Zax and Gus went to keynote in the morning. Presenters were boring and generic. Switching video from one presenter to another went very smoothly-NOT. Very chaotic. MC was very annoying when he tried to cover up SNAFUs with jokes and loud patter. Presenters were awarded participation prizes.
Home Automation panel at 1600 hrs was good.
Gus started asking a few people about their thoughts on ASI. Most were not worried and thought it would work itself out.
Gus went to Apple and exchanged Thunderbolt cable for HDMI cable. AAXA projector works great now.
Lynn and Joe came to our room and visited from 2000 to 2200 hours. Joe works at the University of LNV. Lynn has been retired for 8 years. We talked about future technology..... vehicles , medicine , etc.

1130 great presentation by Intel on security
1200 exhibits great swag USB memory sticks
2016m07d13 Thursday
There was a great Theater presentation at 1120 hrs by Prpl Foundation. It was moderated by Art Swift. There were 3 panelists. The European Guy gave a great answer to the question of wither goest ASI ( Artificial Super Intelligence ) He felt it was a great danger. The thin guy panelist poo-pooed ASI. He compared it to earlier people who feared the printing press. I think the two examples are comparable. ( get the video if possible )
