For people who are getting on the Microsoft hype train:
Satya Nadella should be doing much better
(This list doesn’t even include their support for ICE or what they’ve also done in the past year.)

Haven’t so much as glanced at the news for a few days. 10/10 would recommend.
I’m back here again.
I would love to read the Halide blog but in choosing Medium as a host, Sebastiaan de With and Ben Sandofsky have apparently decided they’re opposed to the concept of open feed-reading technology.
Why even bother with other silos? They should just use Facebook.
Having an extended weekend off was good, and necessary. I was completely away from the computer and have started thinking about how I’m going to spend my spare time for the next few weeks.
For one I’m going to write about, well, something… something for my blog either way.
The new SE is too big. Thankfully my original model is holding up fine. If I am pressed into a newer phone due to loss of functionality then I’ll get the best new option and keep it for 4 years.
Then, if I want a smaller screen I’ll give the Apple Watch a go.
I need some more time to adjust to the pandemic and the impact it has had on our lives. I should have done this earlier but in this instance later is very much better than never:
Today I Learned is now inactive for an undetermined period of time.
I’ll be around, mostly.
It’s still weird for me to see people not adhering to social distancing, and not taking the appropriate precautions (for example: identifying the vulnerable people in their lives and doing everything to help protect them).
A lot of people are clearly in denial.
It took me all day to figure out the pun in Watchsmith.
The introductory video for Descript is really good.
Today’s gripes:
Neither of these flaws inspire confidence in me for your product.
Firefox is… not good on iOS. Not good at all.
Yesterday I was barely on The Internet at all.
10/10 would recommend.

Quick reminder! 🙋♂️
I launched the new newsletter for Today I Learned earlier this week. 🎉
Issue 1 of ICYMI, the weekly digest, will be sent to subscribers in a few hours from now. 🕙
The next time you wonder why it is that Manton Reece doesn’t submit the Micro.blog Mac app to the App Store, please consider the shoddy state of the App Review Team.
It is no business of Apple’s what it is that developers put on their website.

I’m not one of those people.
Just @brentsimmons being classy as fuck again. 😎
Late last night I launched the Today I Learned newsletter. Woke up this morning still feeling that same positive energy from having done so; it feels good to start something that is both new and complementary to the existing work.
But excuse me, I’m not going to write about it anymore. Instead I’m going to do my best to do what I love and care about, professionally. It’s good for my mental health to pursue what makes me happy. It’s more important now than ever.

Making a new thing is so much fun. 😎

Today is a very good day to be listening to Zoë Keating, whose music is always a welcome campanion whether I’m working on some physical chores, admin tasks, or @til. 🎶
