    Just discovered that within WordPress, with Automattic at least, there is a free library of very high quality, royalty-free stock images available at my fingertips. Very cool. I love Unsplash but these are very good too. I’m an happy camper.

    I’m not a security expert but this “bug” seems quite serious. Macs not affected. AMD no affected. Trust going downhill. 😳🙁

    I’m in the last few miles of enduring a very bad cold. Tired. I wonder how is it diffrent than having COVID19. The only thing I didn’t have is fever. Working from home for the last three days.

    I’m in a local coffee shop. Out of 14 people that I can see using computers, 11 are using MacBook. That is a lot. I always find this to be fascinating. This proportion doesn’t reflect general market shares obviously. Why?

    Hey @Google, I’m calling you out: not supporting picture-in-picture on your YouTube app on iPad in 2020 is simply being evil. You keep giving me reasons, day after day, product after product, service after service to hate your « corporatism ». Fuck you. 🖕🏻🤬 #google

    I’ll never really understand. I’ll never own bitcoins or this type of s*** twitter.com

    I couldn’t agree me. What a waste of resources.

    Here is a very personal one: getting older is accepting things that are profoundly irritating about how we lose abilities. One example: typing on the on-screen keyboard on my iPhone is getting harder and produce too much typing errors. 😔

    One this I’d like to see in iOS 14: a redesigned Siri conversion view. Make it more like an “iMessage-like” thread with bubbles. Because, right now, I never really liked this text on a fuzzy background. #apple #ios14

    Yesterday I went ahead and decided to spend some time cleaning up my bookmarks in Safari. Most of theme were related to iOS development and marketing (dating back from 2008-2014). The vast majority of them pointing to phased-out websites. #iosdev #apple

    One issue that I don’t see people talking about regarding a possible WWDC2020 cancellation: can Apple charge devs to attend the event if is is “virtual-only”? 🤔🧐 I doubt it. #wwdc #wwdc2020 #apple #iosdev #macdev #tvosdev #watchosdev #ipadosdev

    Google is more than ever a software company so they fix the world with software glasses 🤷🏻‍♂️. I cannot see why Apple cannot do the same for non 3D touch devices 🤔. #googlepixel #google #apple #iPhone twitter.com/backlon/s…

    Thought of the day: If I had to return as an indie iOS developer like I was back in 2009-2013, I would design and build a Micro.blog client. Why? Because none of them right now are satisfactory to me.
