Yesterday during Canada’s election night, Radio-Canada (French channel) had the best interactive board I’ve ever seen, albeit a bit laggy at times. I don’t know if it was purpose built or if it was based on a commercial solution, but it was impressive. It’s the first time the TV host didn’t struggle with the UI and interaction features. Tap-to-dismiss and a breadcrumb at the bottom made navigation a breeze, apparently. I wish I could have a short video showing it in action.

I don’t know when the trend started, but companies like IBM are starting to use gen AI to automatically offer translated technical documentation from English to… whatever language. I encountered quite a few funny errors today. Thankfully, we can ask for the original at the click of a button. Still work to be gone for this to be on-par with human-made texts.

David Spark on Nano texture displays:

I can’t help but wonder if Apple will eventually bring Nano-texture to the iPhone. Given how often people use their phones in direct sunlight, it could help. Regardless, for those who need a high-end, anti-reflective display, Apple’s Nano-texture glass is the best I’ve seen, and far superior to any screen treatment or film I’ve tried.

If nano texture display ever come to the iPhone, I would buy it in a heartbeat even if I didn’t for my M4 iPad Pro (too expansive).

Simply THE Best

Just spent 10 minutes on Glass, just browsing and glancing at other people’s work, and I was blown away by the quality of photos that you can find there. I discovered many great photographers this morning that will brighten my view of the world. I would argue that Glass is probably THE best and most successful photo-sharing service of all that I experienced in my life.
