I’m still exploring ways to monetize my experience with Craft. After creating The Craft Bible, now it’s Craft Support Call. I don’t expect much from this, but I’m curious to see how it goes if I ever get one request.

I’m surprised that, so far, nobody tried to shoot down one of these drones flying over New Jersey! I mean, come on, USA!

Those drone sightings stories in New Jersey are… troubling? How come authorities can’t figure out what they are? They are big drones yet too small objects for serious analysis? Where are they coming from? Who is operating them? What are the purposes of those low altitude sighting? 🤔

Updating plugins on Micro.blog is as satisfying as updating apps on the Mac. I wish there were more updates.

Special announcement: for Craft Docs users wishing for a 2025 calendar template, here you go.

Caseless day™ 🙃🫣

Up until now, I was able to keep Micro.blog at the center of my blogging activities and my social networks presence but with Bluesky taking off, I can’t keep up with new follows… I follow people on Bluesky from Bluesky, not always from Micro.blog. Low friction probably explains this behaviour.

If I’m less active here it might be because I’m more active on Bluesky. 😬 @numericciten.me

I’m nearly done with an article about the Pixelmator buy-out by Apple, but I will wait a bit before publishing it…. everyone being focused elsewhere.

Walked 20KM, 28000 steps. Feeling exhausted. 😓 But I still love NY, 9 years since my previous trip in June, 2015.

I can’t stand watching and listening to Musk for more than five minutes. He is such a bad speaker, really. I think he should let someone else talk for him, like one of his robots, it might be much better and bearable.

When I created my Ko-fi page, I said that I would be sharing more personal stories about me on it. Today, I just did. Plus, my supporters are getting a free perk. Want to become a supporter too? Thanks.

I found a font that I like a lot: Dosis. This will be the official font for my future consulting company. I find it to be a mix of modernism and retro style. Easy to read. Singular.

Back home. Feeling good. Returning to normal programming soon. 🤗

What is the fuss with Automattic lately? Missed something apparently. 🤨

Currently curating my Bluesky home feed to my liking. If someone on Bluesky didn’t post since last year, when Bluesky was red-hot, I unfollow. I’m using Bluesky lists to curate my best accounts and build a custom timeline with them. I did something similar back in the day for Twitter as documented here.

I knew it: Trump lacks courage. He wants us to believe he can talk and fix anything in 24 hours but refuses a simple second debate. What a fake guy.

Hey, ABC News, you should be embarrassed by how you allowed that man to yell about anything he wanted. One person said he got 9 extra minutes by butting in, and they wouldn’t cut his mic.

Nine minutes seems a lot, but yeah, I’m not that impressed by the moderators.

Fuckin unfair management of the debate, especially in the last halftime. Big fail in my book. 🤬

I’m a little upset at the moderators. They don’t do their job fully or am I missing something? Why can’t they say directly “you don’t answer the question, please proceed or else“?
