Something acting up since early morning on my Ghost hosted blog. Every few hours, I get a new registered subscriber to the free tier of my newsletter using a randomized name but a real user email address. 😕🤨

In my family, relatives are purchasing Macs in bulk: three Mac mini computers and one MacBook Pro. I’m quite perplexed about the reasons behind this sudden surge in Mac purchases. 🤯

I am not the biggest fan of meta blog posts, also called blogging about blogging. I do think they’re sometimes useful but they’re also quite uninspiring for me to read. And that’s why I try to stay away from the topic for the most part.
I find this statement surprising coming from the author behind the popular “People & Blog” series. Maybe I’m missing something here.

It’s the time of the year where I feel the best action is “mark all as read”… 🫤

A strange image of Steve walking in an open space area (probably in One Infinite Loop). The visual mood of this image triggers other possibilities.. like Steve walking in heaven… I think I’m either exhausted or too sensitive.

New Bluesky subscribers rush seems to be easing because I’m stuck at 153 followers for the last week!

In recent days I’ve been thinking and imagining what could be a useful and powerful WebClipper for Craft. I’ve built a shared document for that purpose. Have a look.

On iPhone 16 Pro Camera Control
I’ve played a bit with my wife’s iPhone 16 Pro Camera Control. I think it is cool but not practical. It is the best case of feature or functions overloading on a single control. I think it’s hard to compete against discrete on-screen camera controls because these are much quicker to invoke and the error rate is low. I don’t see the Camera Control to live for a long time as I can’t see a single way of improving it and fixing this usability issue. Continue reading →

Last work day of the year. It should be an easy one, mostly spent on writing a client proposal.

COVID is still a thing: my sister and brother-in-law (69 & 71) got it. They got vaccinated five days before. Too little, too late, I guess. Goodbye, Christmas and family reunion. 😔

I’ve been playing with iA Presenter 1.4 again this morning. I like what I’m seeing with the share presentation online feature (example here). Now, I have to wonder: what is my use case for this? I always come down to this question when trying new features, new apps or new services.

Why doesn’t the Arc Browser provide Kagi search as a default search engine option? 🤔

This weekend, I’m going to record and publish the next edition of the “What’s Up with Micro.blog” series. The last edition was shared last August. Don’t miss it!

Microsoft Teams for iPad is probably the buggiest app of all when used with an external display. So many weird UI behaviors. It might Apple’s fault, too.

Just bought Soulver 3 for iPad as a big fan of this app for the Mac. I cannot live without it on my iPad today while at work. Not cheap but so well done. I wish I couldd export a sheet into Excel with all the values and formulas transposed for me.

At the office today, the last time for 2024. It’s an iPad Pro-type-of-day. Currently using an external display with Stage Manager on and Apple Magic Keyboard. It feels a little bit cramped but it’s ok. After two minutes, I can already see display bugs when using an app on the external display. I’m looking at you, Micro.blog.
