I never really considered “how quickly will my camera manufacturer support and update its software for the new macOS” and yet here we are. Nikon was really bad with Sonoma and now sequoia is here and I’m wondering how long till everything is supported.

AI training in action.

It would be really rude to use AI to summarise a mega iOS review by someone who really doesn’t want their content to be used to train AI, wouldn’t it?

(seriously, I wouldn’t…but it’s actually a time I want to. Also, if I saved it to Readwise, it would be summarised which shows the challenge of stopping AI from being trained on your work).

Finished reading: The Divine Conspiracy by Dallas Willard 📚 — I see why people like it so much and I now recognise its influence on many other authors I like.

Just found a support article that was “Published 9/21/2023 update 19/06/2024”. I think we can all agree that switching between US date format and the rest of the world is the worst of all worlds.

One of the funny things that happens in our company is one copywriter will stretch a claim to its absolute limit (while still technically being true), then the next will just remove any hedge or whatever so it becomes a downright lie.

If I catch it, I make sure to undo it, but this is a very unintentional way that lies can slip in. (It also explains how tech news can drift from objectivity).

I really don’t like what bending spoons have done to Evernote* BUT 1. I hear it’s much better (finally) 2. It might actually be financially viable again. So their takeover of wetransfer makes me nervous.

*firing all their legacy employees, raising pricing, heavy “AI” focus, paywalling previously free features,etc,.)

Started reading while traveling in the UK. Great so far, but I wonder how much I’d appreciate with out my knowledge of Russian culture.

Currently reading: A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles 📚

Wake up babe, new Vanhoozer just dropped.

A reminder, if you tag everyone, everyone has to assume who a task is delegated to (which usually means no one knows or does it).
