  @caseyliss@mastodon.social Looks like I can make the website whatever I want…if that info can be accessed in the API, seems like a good move.

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@daringfireball/116252309067166574 I’m so happy for the rich people that they have a nicer way to feel rich while they compete to prove who’s richest at an auction house.

  Watching “Sing Street” for St. Patrick’s Day. “No girl can rally love a man who listens to Phil Collins” All the stars.

  It’s a "call your Senators" day, US folks. Oppose the SAVE Act. Yes, even if, or maybe especially, if you have Dem Senators. They are getting polling that 70% of people support the act, which is clearly due to misinformation about what it entails. As always, 5 Calls makes it easy: https://5calls.org

  @lexfri@hachyderm.io sort of annoying, but the pure business answer is to add a “coin” system. That gives you flexibility to give free/earned coins, have a subscription that gives infinite coins, one-time purchases for some, or, yes, watch an ad for some.

  Apple Folks: FB22249314. Shortcuts can't edit Intent parameters that are string arrays. This has been like this since iOS 26.0 shipped, and it's just silly that it's not fixed.

  I had a wonderful two year gap between getting all my kids taking care of filing their own taxes until I had to take over filing my parents and in-laws

  If I write a detailed blog post explaining why I don’t want ever want AI to tell me I asked a good question, will it make it into the training data and they’ll all know that about me? Planning for the future.

  @macsparky@mastodon.social @stephenrobles@mastodon.social Nice job on the Pogue interview, gentlemen. Enjoyable listen.

  I’m on the iOS 26.4 beta and, honestly, the best change is that the emoji in the News+ emoji game now zoom up to a legible size when you tap them.

  @jwilker@wandering.shop why is this not called “Ride, Sally Ride”

  Who’s going to fund free access to frontier models at public libraries?

  So glad Apple allows app reviews to be submitted from the iOS betas now so we can be blamed for their bugs! (If you are on the iOS 26.4 beta, turn off "Reduce Transparency" or get weird things broken!)

  Is there a way around Apple not allowing creation of new Apple IDs attached to your phone number? It seems impossible to create new accounts for things like Search AD API access, because it always blocks me at the phone verification stage.

  Supervising eight college students at the beach on Spring Break. What could go wrong.

  I love this photo. It’s one of my favorites. I’m so glad when it appears n my lock screen randomizer. What time is it?

  Turns out if you bend over backwards to cache and re-use instances of attribute values (like paragraph styles and fonts), and aggressively compare existing attributes on a string to avoid *ever* modifying an attribute that is already applied to a range, you can squeeze some pretty big performance gains out of your NSTextStorage.

  Our elderly, indoor cat got out last week. With no sightings in days, we were resigning ourselves to her not returning, but she was spotted this morning about a mile away and is home safe ❤️ …and I would now like to go personally slap every one who felt the most important thing to share on our neighborhood forum posts, or in-person as we walked around searching, was anecdotes about how many coyotes and foxes there are in the area. Seriously, screw you. Not helpful.

  I’d probably buy a Neo for the couch if it had 16 MB RAM. But, man, if they do this at $499 for education, every single college freshman is going to have one in the Fall.

  So few people know you can change iOS font sizes *by app*, not just system-wide. It's such a great feature that is really hidden. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Urpc3FENcXQ

  @tvaziri@mastodon.social @marcoarment@mastodon.social @caseyliss@mastodon.social It’s so bad I added a one-step “Start Workout” shortcut to the Watch control center and use it instead of the app.

  @gruber@mastodon.social I've always thought they were going for making the impression, both on their shelves and in your pantry, that these products are sourced from exotic vendors around the world (“traders”) rather than all just being white label brands…which, makes sense as a strategy.

  @joesteel@duck.haus I keep sending STOP but they don’t seem to get that I meant the fascism.
