    Home sweet home. I’m back and working from my M4 Mac mini running macOS 15.6.1. Feels good to be out of this Liquid Glass turmoil. I’ll probably wai a long time before upgrading my Mac mini.

    I spent two hours today experimenting with Riverside.fm to see if this solution could replace ScreenFlow. So far, the experience is good, but I will need to try again at home with my M4 Mac mini and my usual recording setup.

    At this point, with all the rumors and leaks, Apple should just call it off, cancel the infomercial next week and update its website now and be done with it. 😔

    Remember Apple Clips? Adobe Premiere for iPhone is coming soon… Was Clips another waste of time by Apple?

    It seems that the browser war is heating up with Atlassian buying the Browser Company and all other AI startups working on building their own AI-browser, the future conduits to the next web.

    What is more depressing than spending the day inside Microsoft’s productivity suite, on Windows?

    I just submitted one of my comments about Google and Apple deals to Techmeme, and it got picked up. Am I famous now? I’ve been following Techmeme more closely in the last few weeks; it’s a strange but informative place to be.

    Apple seems to be closer to repeating with Google what they do for search, but this time with AI. I would prefer Apple to do search, too, and I understand the challenge in offering LLMs that have a chance to compete, at the perception level, at least.

    Work

    To everyone who is afraid of losing their job because of generative artificial intelligence (or one of its variations), now is the right time to ask yourself: am I giving my best at work? Don’t give your employer any reasons or desire to replace you with AI.

    Generative AI is making us suspicious of everything online.

    Recent additions and improvements by Inoreader for podcast listeners and YouTube content consumption are game changer for me. It will take some time to process that and see how I adapt to this. Of course, AI is not far.

    When all apps look pretty much the same, there is no fun, no distinctiveness. Looking at you, Apple and your stock apps with whateverOS 26.

    What are the mistakes Apple, under Tim Cook’s leadership, did since 2011? I’m working on something, your input will help define what I’m working on.

    Thought of the day: writing with AI is not writing, it’s something else. Eventually, there will be a word for it, but meanwhile, let’s not call this writing. Looking at you, Tiago Forte.

    ooh.directory appears to be dead, already. It didn’t last long. But the guy behind it is still active.

    Sometimes, I start writing a blog post on Micro.blog but then switch to Scribble.pages at the last minute to post it there. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    When posting a new photo on Glass, I always look at my previous posts on my profile page to see my previous posts. I like to create a nice visual rhythm in my feeds for those who follow me.

    With my new job, I get to use a Windows 11 laptop. It’s not a powerhouse, but it is decent—except when it’s not plugged in. As a Mac user at home, I take for granted the speed and battery life that an Apple Silicon Mac offers. It’s night and day. I don’t notice any difference when using the Mac on battery; I never hear the fan because there isn’t one. It’s night and day. We should always remember that.
