Faraway, So Micro

Alright. 14.3 seems like a good time to update.

I need a stud finder finder. Somehow after having the same stud finder for 20 years, it’s gone missing.

BeReal—but it’s a video call everyone joins at the same time for exactly 10 minutes.

If you’re putting off calling the dentist to book an appointment for you or a kid, just know that I finally made the call after delaying for a week and it took less than 3 minutes and now it’s done.

Procrastinators unite! 😆

Thanks to a new client, I’ve realized it takes me 3 tries to spell “interrupted” correctly.

It sure is neat how we’ve had warmer weather and then get a day floating just below zero where it’s melting but also freezing, and then tonight it will definitely freeze and apparently throw a nice layer of snow on top of the layer of ice.

Driving or walking will be ✨magical✨ tomorrow.

While vacuuming I can’t help thinking about how much better this would be if I was wearing a Vision Pro and didn’t have to be alone with my thoughts for so long.

I honestly love the evil villain move TikTok is pulling right now. Just as everyone is finally doing vertical video and admitting it’s the way, TikTok is rewarding creators who publish full width, landscape videos now.

Brilliant.

Thing that kind of breaks my brain: Someday somebody’s first, and maybe only, experience of a computer will be a Vision Pro (or something like that).

It’s a pretty ballsy move for Arc to say “skip the Google middleman with search engine ads” using a browser built on Google’s open source browser engine.

Just in time: Wordle 957 2/6

🟧⬛🟧⬛🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 (I only share good scores. Assume I usually get it in 5 or more.)

What is happening?

Farmer sausage and pierogis for supper (if I can find them in the freezer). And then instead of watching Mandy Patinkin be delightfully weird in ep2 of Death and Other Details, I think I’ll freeze my butt in a hockey rink.

How about you?

Arc continues to be my main web browser, but I have to say that when I read through the new AI based features they keep adding, I’m not seeing a huge use case for myself.

A reminder that a bunch of music is about to disappear from TikTok because corporations don’t like fun things and can’t agree on $$.

The two areas I miss most about working for someone else are: 1) Time off where someone covers your work for you, and 2) figuring out how much to charge a client for a service or product.
