Suddenly realised just how important it isn’t that I know the exact temperature at any given time.
I was glad to see, at WWDC, Apple spent seemingly no time saying anything about “AI”.
It would be disheartening to see such an influential cultural institute endorse the misuse of that name.
I’ve stopped saying “Micro dot Blog”. Trying instead “Microblog” and it feels good so far.
TIL Reddit CEO Steve Huffman is a piece of shit.
Right now if I was asking for help on the Micro.blog forums I would automatically @-mention the following names in my post:

It’s the best chance of success and closest thing we have to an official support team on that site.
Adjusted for inflation, the original Mac cost $7000. I think Ben Thompson is correct insofar as the Vision line of products is intended to largely replace the Mac, eventually.
HEIC support in Safari is an interesting development.
Damn it… there are an increasing number of actual-very-good-things-I-use updates to Apple’s stuff this year.
Not only am I tempted by the iOS beta for the first time, I am also considering jumping on the new Mac update before the end of the year, and keeping an eye out for a better phone.
WWDC is always a good opportunity for me to further learn about how to make and release something for other people. Apple are so good at it, in ways that aren’t obvious at first glance.
Sad but unsurprising to see that Instagram came down hard on Ryan Barrett’s Atom app.
It’s past time that I stop giving these silos any thoughts at all with regard to improvements via the open ethos of the web.
If they don’t let you change Siri’s voice to Paul Bettany then they’re fools.
“Clumsy hardware controllers” – now there’s the fun part of Apple.
Iger and Kojima in one event. Apple have come a long way from computers.
Let’s. Fucking. Go.
“juicy news” is not a phrase any organisation should ever use. ugh.
Got a battery case for my phone. This was the only problem I have come across with the device as time has passed, and now with both this and the thin protective case as alternatives I have already thought much less about the device in general. :)

Given the latest of desperate scrambles from a “free” platform, I guess the question now is WhyC.
Yesterday I learned about Sydney Smith, due to use of the following quote:
It is the greatest of all mistakes, to do nothing because you can only do little…
Now I want to read whatever remains of his work.
I’ll save the effort of a full blog post:
Happy to represent the sheltered kids. 😂
I thought the Discourse chat worked very well for Micro Camp.
I wonder if anybody else thinks they would be a good space for further off-timeline chat?
If I remember correctly I think @pratik floated the idea of it being an (un)official Micro.blog messaging service, which is interesting.
Most of us use language like an awkward and crude tool to gesture vaguely at the inexpressible within.
