I’m not too fond of text quotes shared as beautiful pictures (coming from Readwise, for example), especially if they don’t come with ALT text description. They look pretty, though. Here’s an example. I don’t like them because they hinder content indexing in some ways.
While Netflix is sorry for making their product too convenient by showing up on Apple TV app for a few hours to a few users, Apple is making Apple TV app available anywhere, including Android more recently. Netflix seems run by stupid guys. Apple? I prefer not to answer that one. It’s tricky and complicated when looking at the big picture (pun intended).
I understand this is only the beginning, but I find it strange that summaries aren’t available at post time, only at edit time, after the initial post publication. It’s like a backward rollout. For my first test, I used the AI-generated version. For this one, I’ll write it manually. The first part of my experiment is available here.
I’m testing the new blog post summary feature of Micro.blog. For now, according to my assessment, the summary field is only available while editing an existing post, which seems a bit strange. It’s a work-in progress and a few updates should help complete the full vision of blog post summaries. If AI support was disabled, the feature isn’t available. More info here.
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. ❄️
In these troubled times, the worst is to depend on social networks for anything.
The Rotten Side of Tim Cook’s Apple: Should I write a take 2 to this piece published in 2020? I think so.
First, Tim gives his money to this orange clown and dictator and assist the presidential circus inauguration and now Apple resumes advertising on X? This is not the Apple that I want. 😡
Testing Micro Social! Great start! @gregmorris !
