I was going to post something in a vague and sarcastic manner, then I decided against that idea.
Instead, back to work on @TIL 2.0.
Oh, also, yesterday I had a thought about a way to implement post-threading on Micro.blog.

I think of quoting in blogging as a social feature, in a good way.
As such today’s Tip on TIL regarding manual quoting, along with a few as of late, have been placed into the Social filter. You can find the feed for those posts, and other filters on the About page.
When I’m using the Micro.blog scheduler for @TIL, I feel like I’m having a good day.
I don’t understand it, or why you would do it. Maybe one day I will do it, but I don’t see that. I don’t understand why you would want to tell other people, people you don’t know, what is good or not so good in the moment.

Nice work, Dunfermline 😂
“New post on launch” is a phenomenal feature in @gluon. Mix with “Focus mode” and you have a brilliant app.
But why go through the effort of blogging at all? If you like to engage with the world of ideas, blogging is one of the best ways to do so. Writing and publishing forces you to solidify and clarify your thoughts.
What would happen if we didn’t tweet?

… I’m a private person … I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good then you should go do something else wonderful, and not dwell on it too long… just figure out what’s next.
I believe that our interactions online should be worth something, should be more meaningful than metrics and anonymous validation.
I subscribed to Kermode & Mayo’s Take quicker than any other podcast.
Issue 11 of ICYMI is scheduled for release. If you subscribe now you’ll get all of last week’s 14 posts and the accompanying notes.
There’s one more post set to be published this evening, and that’s the end of the week for @TIL. With 14 posts it feels good to say that activity has resumed.
I’m looking forward to next week: the full set of regular posts and some updates.
Next goal: a full month of posts.
Flickr are putting more features behind the Pro membership and further limiting free accounts.
I am ok with this, since the platform is only going to survive it if can become sustainable in more of the way of modern, paid services, and less of the way of older ad-based services.
Continental Europe successful synchronisation with Ukraine and Moldova power systems
Excellent news.
We had to speed up by more than 1 year!
Real people getting important work done, with none of the glory this accomplishment surely justifies.
There’s a major update to Nova, mostly because the folks at Panic clearly knew that @vincent needed to be tested by a distraction 😂
The Themes and Plugins Panel from yesterday is great. Loved seeing a well-deserved mention for @custom.
Glass for iPad looks pretty damn good
The list of strong reasons for replacing the device I sold (to help fund the move) is only growing.
Also, how cool is to see the folks at Glass outline the significant updates they’ve made in the 6 months since launch.
Made the mistake of watching a few minutes of this video on the new iMac in 4K 60FPS HDR… and now I really want a PS5 and compliant TV 😬
I mean, you could just talk.
– Ian Hislop absolutely nailing the pointless nature of Twitter
Specifically, as a space to convene and discuss serious issues? We’re past time for everybody to stop pretending like that’s a good idea.

More time travel. Only now I have something to accompany me whilst working on @TIL.

Time travel is real.
