Looking at my Micro.blog timeline summary I see this bad interpretation of my words in a recent post about updating my Nikon camera firmware from 1.21 to 3.0. 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

“Please, add a map of all the places I visited based on photo metadata”. “Add animation across the site to make it more dynamic, nothing too fancy”. “Please, add support for progressive web app and make sure to set the favicon with the provided image”. “Add support for swipe gestures (ledt and right) while glancing at individual image”. “Add a counter of how many images are stored in each album”.
Are you getting it?
This is simple web app development in 2026 built using Claude Code, Vercel, Next.js and Tailwind CSS. 🤯
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.
Thinking about the upcoming trip to Egypt, I realized I still didn’t have a good solution for sharing photos and comments beyond the usual social networks. Drawing on my experience from the past few weeks deploying web applications on Vercel, I decided to try the same by building a website for sharing and viewing photos. The additional complexity here is that the viewing portion is separate from the photo upload section. Therefore, I need to protect this feature with a password. Additionally, image storage must be optimized to minimize costs and provide a pleasant, flexible viewing experience. I’m using Vercel-only blog storage and Redis for metadata store.
In less than 2 hours, I built a fully functional application with Claude Code and Vercel. Impressive.
How long will it take Apple to fix the Apple Watch setup process involving restoring from previous backups? It’s been an issue for many people for years! My setup process when I upgraded from Series 6 to Series 8 was hindered by this issue. Same when I upgraded from Series 8 to Series 10. Either the backup found wasn’t recent, or there was no backup to restore from. Michael Tsai is one such person. Anyone at Apple is setting up a new watch? 🤔
First visit to the new Ste-Catherine Apple Store in downtown Montreal. It’s quite a different vibe than the previous store. More to come in a short article.
On the impossibly thin iPhone Air, the camera protuberant area acts like a place to help secure the phone in my hand using my finger.
The end of an era.
Doing multitasking on the iPad mini is… really? 🤷🏻♂️ Who is actually doing this?
I completed implementing automated backups of all my n8n workflows to GitHub and documenting their triggering times in a compact format using Claude AI. The backup workflow is based on a template found in the n8n community.
