Sometimes I forget that my iPad is a battery that can charge my iPhone.

I see a bad trend in podcasts not creating dedicated pages for each episode thus forcing me to link to their YouTube version.

...in the meantime I have become a fan of Open Nutrition App: www.opennutrition.app.

In 2-3 years I predict Apple will Sherlock the calorie counting/nutrition tracking app space.

Bluesky, unlike X, doesn’t punish posts with links. Which means there is no good reason (and frankly no good excuse) for posts with screengrabs of articles that don’t link to them.

It’s bad for readers and bad for the writers whose work you’re using. Posting text? Link to where you got it.

Hey based on your discussion it sounds like you might hire a producer to handle scheduling. Also, What about adopting the podcasting2.org standard?

@simonwillison.net I was just reading your post on "The Perfect Commit" and it matches closely with "The Definition of Done" I have used on previous projects. Have you been able to distill this into a ".cursorrules" format that ensures the LLMs also code this way?

Remember as you post on Threads, APIs are being taken away from the same company on Instagram. Sad to see that I can't automatically archive my posts into my journaling software @dayone.

First crosspost from Croissant App #croissant

I am a *huge* RSS addict, since long before Google Reader was even a thing (RIP). I still use it all day long, even now... so this mega RSS resources page has opened up a massive new rabbit hole I can't wait to go down...

Google being evil

So happy that Michael Tsai documented how to remove the Google login overlay on websites that I’m browsing. It always gets in the way of the content and I waste time dismissing it daily.

Trying to find how the Apple Watch Ultra has a better GPS than the other Apple Watches and found an article from The Verge that’s a good read.

Hush - Noiseless Browsing Block nags to accept cookies and privacy
 invasive tracking in Safari on Mac, iPhone and iPad.

I've been using the Safari browser extension called Hush for surpassing all those cookie tracking banners on websites saying a lot of cognitive time dismissing them.

Just found a site that lists all Mac apps that you can put in the menu bar. I'm already pretty stocked up but it is a fun lens to find Mac apps.
