As a fan of meteorology, I was fascinated today by this visible satellite imagery sequence of east North America. We can observe clouds at different levels in the atmosphere for the same geo area that travel in different directions. Just look at the cursor for where to observe the phenomena. This is not exceptional, but it is fascinating nonetheless.

I’ve got one Bluesky invite available. Just saying. 🙂

I finally completed and shared the last part of my story “Moving out of WordPress”, this time, it’s the DNS side of the story, where I explain the process of moving out of GoDaddy to CloudFlare so that I can keep using my root domain numericcitizen.me. Go on my Numeric Citizen I/O website for all the details if you’re curious.

My creative goals are all met, and it’s Monday. 😅 Maybe I wasn’t aiming high enough? 🤔

In my last two YouTube videos, I decided to stop using cross-fade between segments. It’s a bit visually harsh (I’m not getting used to that), but it seems like the general trend among YouTubers these days. Plus, when using bookmarks, thumbnails get a better preview.

I’m wondering how good MacWhisper will be at decoding my English with my accent. Will try for my next YouTube video ad I always wanted to add video captions.

Fun and interesting fact: I have four times more followers on Bluesky than on Mastodon, even though the latter has much more users like in the millions instead of in the thousands for the former. 🤔

Wow, the Opal C1 camera software is still in beta… after so long on the market?? The last beta dates back to February. I have such a camera… still in my drawer. Happily using the Continuity Camera with my iPhone 13 Pro.

In case you didn’t know: there is a small group of Microbloggers on the messaging app Wavelength. You can get on board and join the other 38 other members. Here is the invite link. The idea behind this group is not to replace Micro.blog, far from it, but to add a complementary option for discussing any subjects that you might find interesting in near real-time.

I’m a big fan of Raycast, and I cannot wait to get my hands on Raycast AI, but there is one thing that I cannot stand about it: the app icon. 🤢 I’m wondering if @mattbirchler has the same opinion here.

Thanks @manton for the auto-complete! It works great on the iPad!

For each video about Micro.blog that I make and share, I lose subscribers.😔 People don’t like the mixing of videos about two different things I guess: Craft & Micro.blog. 🤷‍♂️

This blog post was created, edited and posted using the venerable and excellent MarsEdit text editor. Before switching to Ulysses, MarsEdit was my go-to choice for writing posts of a certain length and complexity because of its simplicity and for supporting posting to Micro.blog.

This blog post was used for recording an upcoming video about apps that I use for posting content on Micro.blog. The video will be published soon on my YouTube channel.

Something that bugs me with Micro.blog. Nothing serious, but still. The questionable sidebar arrangement. Why is Replies at the near bottom? Why not have a “Website” category with Plug-ins + Design inside of it? Why plans not into Account? Why “Feeds” sits inside Accounts? Why not rename “Feeds” to “Digital hub”? I’m just wondering out loud, @manton!

As reported by the Wall Street Journal (since it’s paywalled, look at MacRumors report instead), Apple is supposedly working on its own journaling application. Code named « Jurassic », many interesting details are emerging from this report. As an avid user of Dayone (read « Documenting My Numeric Life With Dayone »). , I find the prospect of having Apple entering the journaling apps landscape quite exciting. The idea of using journaling to help users with mental health issues is pretty clever. Continue reading →

RIP Twitter 2007-2022 is now live (well, mostly live as tweets are still being processed and imported). Thanks for this @manton!

Still alive. Only on vacation. 😎

Somehow, I forgot to include my devices in my creator toolset website. Done now.

My wife recently told me how she was looking and considering tools like ChatGPT in her work. She considers ChatGPT like having an intern working with her. The intern will do the work she asks, but she knows she will have to give it a critical eye on the results just in case any errors creep in. If using interns in companies, why is ChatGPT not considered at the same level? Open for debate.

I like this intern analogy.

Finding software bugs at the least expected place and time while recording long YouTube videos, it’s always fun! #not #craftisbuggy
