We should tread carefully while bringing AR and ads technologies together. AR is still a growing tech and opening the doors for ads can potentially ruin it before it gets a chance to settle. https://twitter.com/Techmeme/status/1016691248961347587

★ Liked “re-setting my mental clock” by @ayjay

I have always told myself that I have time to think about what, if anything, I want to write next, but I haven’t really believed it, and I think that’s been due to my immersion in the time-frame of Twitter and other social media.

When you send a webmention to this site, you are explicitly providing metadata in your site’s markup, and this information is used to display your comment/reply on this site.

Webmentions is one aspect I need to call out that I collect information via, even though I do not persist any of the information. I think I may stitch something up inspired by this.

So, I had recently got a blog created with blot.im. It will continue to exist in parallel to existing site built with Hugo. And as @jack recently wrote, it’s fine. Hope is eventually one will get tiring.

I read this nice article on how being a parent might (or might not) affect one’s writing. It made me think hard if parenting does affect my creativity. I just could not let the thoughts linger. So here’s a response.

@colinwalker Do you have a different feed that is fed to micro.blog than your exposed rss? Your titles are shortened for longer posts in your rss, while not in m.b. I was recently exploring the option to control the titles in my feed.

‪This how-to series from Apple on Twitter is brilliant marketing. Showcases the product, ‬guiding users at the same. Done well too.

★ Liked “An Interview with Andy Hertzfeld - Architect of the original Macintosh”

We’ve all seen the legendary Apple keynotes and how personal computing has transformed the way we live and work, but what I was really interested to learn from Andy was what it was like to shape that vision from scratch, what it was like to work as an engineer when most people didn’t even really understand what a computer was, when the frontier of what it could become was wide open.

I and queues have some animosity. I know everyone thinks so, but it’s not the regular “my queue moves slowest” complaint that I have. It’s that the only place with queues is where I need to go.

And, of course, they move slow 🙄
