TIL On a Break
As of today @TIL is on a break, and will return as soon as possible.
The move is all-consuming at this point and I am confident that recent updates have put the project in good enough condition to survive.
I’ll still be about. 🙂
Thanks for reading!
Not renewing Apple Music. Going back to my local library, with possible sharing if there is a good enough service (I have an iTunes Match sub at the minute).
My primary tactic is to save up for a good file player, probably from Sony, and no longer rely on the internet.
A few months ago I countered Manton Reece’s concern over iPad pricing with the notion that the much more expensive price of an iPad Pro from an M1 MacBook was justified.
I have since changed my mind. The inferior software dents the iPad’s value by a significant amount.
Question for @jean: approximately how much alcohol is required to get through all of this moving nonsense. 😓
Timezone-shifted prompt:
After a busy week on @TIL, the recently named newsletter Post Haste will help you get caught up!
The next issue of ICYMI will be released on Monday. 👀
Well that was a pretty good week for @TIL.
If you missed it or like getting letters, there is a newsletter for that: Post Haste
I’m writing the next issue of the weekly recap, ICYMI, and it will be out on Monday. 👀
Say hello to the redesigned @TIL. 😎

Looking forward to releasing some @TIL updates tomorrow. I nearly pushed the button on a few things early but remembered how much I enjoy adding a bit more polish and publishing with a more intentional approach.
Related: I love how much control you can have on the web.
One of the things I like a lot about the community on Micro.blog is that people can get all hyped up about a new app (Glass, lately), and I just don’t care… but! I still find it possible to have good conversations and read good conversations, and not once do I feel excluded.
Just took a quick look in Discover and saw a bunch of people who either haven’t presented at Micro Camp or I haven’t seen in the chatroom there.
This reflects the way in which Micro.blog has grown in a quiet way, without the founders and enthusiasts yelling at you about it.
For the folks who haven’t been able to attend Micro Camp: don’t worry! Neither have I. Sometimes life works out that way. :)
Testing out a new post type for @TIL with this post for Micro Camp.
What do you think; link-blogging on Today I Learned?
Maybe one of the reasons RSS doesn’t seem to be as popular as we would like is because we’re all hiding the link for the feed.
