I appreciate that Buttondown makes sure you’re serious enough about the relationship before allowing naked mode. 😆
New blog post: Missing Notifications in iOS 18
I don’t know why, but it bothers me so much that the Descript dot com version is snappier than the desktop version on my Mac Studio. 😆
Just checking what happens if I bold some text or maybe italicize it via Micro.blog and then cross-posting to Bluesky.
TIkTok’s frantic effort to skirt the U.S. ban as the White House changed hands:

I see a resurgence in the use of Signal as a WhatsApp / Messenger / etc. alternative. Is it secure to share your username publicly? Or more of a thing you’d use to give directly to someone you know?
I wish I could get off Meta, but the WhatsApp moat is a huge one.
Seems like today’s iOS & macOS updates might be worth doing for security reasons more so than an AI slop features.
I’m thankful that Ben Thompson woke up early to go deep on DeepSeek.
Meta, meanwhile, is the biggest winner of all. A big barrier to realizing their vision is the cost of inference, which means that dramatically cheaper inference makes that vision much more achievable.
Woof.
