My experience with Apple Intelligence’s Writing Tools is mixed. One significant issue is the absence of a feature to compare the original text with the revised version. In contrast, Grammarly excels in this regard, as its suggestions are contextual. Additionally, the constant need to select text to … read more

Will we ever see some generative AI or AI-based features added to HEY Mail? 🧐

Adobe Lightroom for Mac is the best Mac app of the year? In light of Apple buying Pixelmator, I find this a bit surprising.

I’m surprised that, so far, nobody tried to shoot down one of these drones flying over New Jersey! I mean, come on, USA!

Image Playground is so underwhelming and pretty much useless for me. It’s barely a tech demo. All this for what?

I got an email from Ghost to participate in the ActivityPub beta for my blog. I’m not sure how my blog will be named in the fediverse, but I can imagine being able to get comments from people here on Micro.blog and having those comments appear at the bottom of my blog posts. Will see soon enough.

With this, when I publish a photo on Glass, it gets posted on my blog too. The same photo on two platforms. As much as I like the POSSE … read more

According to Tim Cook, the old Steve Jobs office at One Infinite Loop is still intact and reserved for Tim Cook so he can enter it and “connect with him”? I would die myself to have a chance to see this place.

I declare my year-long goal of resisting to join Threads to be accomplished.

Updating plugins on Micro.blog is as satisfying as updating apps on the Mac. I wish there were more updates.

It’s easier for me to discover (and like) a new photographer than discovering a new writer. Information absorption is faster in photography.

Special announcement: for Craft Docs users wishing for a 2025 calendar template, here you go.

Got one of my photos selected in the monthly theme, Decay, on Glass. I’m happy. 😊

Caseless day™ 🙃🫣

I’m reading good comments about the new subscription from The Verge. I’m not a fan of their website design, but I do read their articles from time to time. I’m tempted to give it a try. Yet, “serving better ads” to subscribers is not exactly a turn on. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Here’s the latest edition of the Ephemeral Scrapbook newsletter! I hope you enjoy! Email version coming out soon! For those asking: it is entirely built using Craft Docs.

I’ve seen a drastic increase in new followers on my Bluesky account (+50%) in the last 3 weeks while no new followers on Mastodon in the last six months. 🧐🤨

I’m 90% of the time posting on both (from Micro.blog), like this post.
