I have such a hard time explaining to people around me (family, friends and colleagues) that platforms like Meta are no good and that we should avoid them. 😔

For each edition of my Ephemeral Scrapbook newsletter, I have to select a header image in landscape orientation. Each time I’m struggling with that. How about that one?

I would pay to have a widget that shows an up-to-date view of Claude’s credit usage.

It seems a big one is coming… the first biggy of 2026.

Out of curiosity, yesterday I asked ChatGPT what the latest firmware release was for my Nikon Z f camera: 3.0 (it was at 1.21)! I applied the 110 mb binary update right on time for my upcoming trip. Yes, I know, my camera needs a little cleanup, too.

Another update to my blog: the blog post categories are no longer listed on the main page header. Categories are shown on each blog post. I think that’s enough. Categories are available in the Archive page. This makes the home page less busy.

Putting up a new website on Micro.blog is way too… easy. 🫣🤫🫢

My Microblog Poster web front end now supports Markdown files, drag-and-drop, and preview mode, all in a simple (but less simple than initially built) web interface! 😅

My updated profile description for 2026:

“I’m a compulsive creator and contributor, a digital nomad, a light painter. Aspiring peace supremacist and democracy propagandist. Proud member of the Secret Internet Curators (SIC) brigade.”

I made my first Vercel app: a simple form for posting to Scribbles.page. Super lean, super clean. I do have coding experience, but not with Next.js. Claude AI helped me out. Here is the final form. Next up: same thing but for Micro.blog. This time, the title field, the categories will be shown by default! 😅
