I updated the blog theme plugin to add support for Micro.blog summaries. In order to work, I had to disable showing the full post on the main page, which triggers the display of the summary with a “Continue reading” link. Is it a better reading experience for my readers? You tell me, please. I’m not sure.

As reported by Engadget and many others:

According to researchers, anyone who knows where to look can spray digital graffiti on the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) website. Two web development experts said the site doesn’t seem to be hosted on government servers and that the database it pulls from can be modified by those who locate it. At the time of writing, a message reading “these ‘experts’ left their database open - roro” is still visible on the DOGE site.

Thanks, I feel much more confident now.

Another big snowstorm is coming right at us this Sunday. It should be a bit smaller is intensity compared to yesterday’s storm. So far, snow accumulation estimated range is 20-30 cm. ❄️

DHH at 37 Signals praising Musk for his business (and now) government spending management is yet another red flag and a no-go for me. I won’t link to this post. I’m going to vote with my money and cancel my HEY Mail subscription this fall when my subscription is expiring. If Musk buys ChatGPT, I’ll again vote with my money and cancel my ChatGPT subscription in due time. As Trump is imposing 25% tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum, I’ll vote with my money and cancel my yearly business trip to the US this fall. Continue reading →

A rather big one is coming at us this Thursday, the first big snow storm of the season. Mostly heavy snow, rather weak winds. North shore of Montreal to get the most snow. Working from home that day for sure.

Now the orange clown put tariffs on hold for 30 days… what an erratic guy… I know he is doing that on purpose because this is the only way he runs his businesses…

For once, I’m really proud of him, of us. This is Canada’s Prime Minister of Canada, Mr. Justin Trudeau, announcing retaliatory actions against the White House absurd and unjustified tariffs. The first four minutes entirely reflect who we are. So well said and quite moving, actually. 🇨🇦 💪🏻

As a Canadian who will face unjust tariffs thanks to the small clique of rich and famous people in the White House, I will reconsider each of my subscriptions that originate from the United States, including Apple One. It starts now.

I understand that people, particularly my colleagues, are using ChatGPT much more than they are willing to admit, as evidenced by my conversations with a few of them this morning.

I love the Severance Apple TV+ series and I thought I understood most of it, but this episode of ScreenCrush tells me that I didn’t at all. I’m probably too old for this, but I love the vibe of Severance. I’ll probably have to rewatch season one. Oh well…

I understand those out there who didn’t vote for Trump decided not to pay attention to what is coming in the next four years, because it will be a pain to watch, but I think this is a mistake, a real big one. People not only should care, but they should continue voicing their outrage and concerns to send a clear message of “resistance”. All people’s voices are important. All the time.

Micro.blog replies disabled, for now. It’s becoming too heavy.

OMFG! Not going to the US until after this clown is out! Fuck him!

So, Trump restored TikTok? What an achievement, and he is still not in the Office. I can’t wait for the next four years. #not

The first thing to do when visiting a new coffee shop after ordering and sitting at your place? Connecting to Wi-Fi and testing its speed. Only after you can taste the coffee. That is my way of living. ☕👨🏻‍💻

I couldn’t resist.

Started something new with Micro.one… but in French this time… seems the Micro.blog branding is never too far… which is confusing. One question for @manton: can you check why uploading an image doesn’t work (clicking the button starts the upload, but it never completes), and the “Post” button for posting something doesn’t work either.

I NEVER take and share pictures of cats… but this one living in the building where I’m currently staying for a few months 🤩… worth enough to push to Pixelfed, too!

For Craft users: it’s still the right time to buy this 2025 Calendar template!

Hello 2025! 🎉 Happy new year folks! So this is it, that was my very first post of 2025.
