I like to write the term like this: artificial intelligence. I don't capitalize it. That's by design. I believe the two capital letters abstract to it to a level I'm not comfortable with. It even sounds *friendly*. With those two long words I try to make it clear that we're talking about something artificial. I don't have proof that works. That's not relevant. It's just the way I like to approach writing about the technology. That is, of co...

@scribblanitea I was thinking about the other day. I said: artificial intelligence won the flyer graphic design business when they finally made everything in the page *important*. I say this as a 20+ years graphic designer that never got to convince clients that if everything's important, nothing is. Also, this is true for any field and I guess ai is coming for them as well.

People may not use a password manager because it’s another thing to learn and it adds friction. They seem to prefer insecure passwords or reseting them. The *forgot your password* button is more like a *send me a magic link* thing. I mean, the magic link thing is not entirely bad and a “forgot your password” wording is more than accurate. Biometrics are not quite there with the thousands of differenr Android phones manufactured per year. The password problem remains unsolved :,(

What a sweet animation Shazam for iOS has when recognizing music and the dynamic island and all. Love it.

Sometimes we use more time trying to learn how to automate the thing instead of doing the thing.

A web page just told me everything it learned about me without asking. It knew my city, my device, my GPU, and how long I hesitated before scrolling. https://sinceyouarrived.world/taken

@SamuraiSakura Cool read. This part: *If there is a mobile site I can use, that is what I will use.* reminded me of this thought I had some weeks ago: https://mastodon.social/@martingwd/116440127630079029 🤜🤛

I encountered and email screenshot from the past and I wanted to make a blogpost about sending a good business email. My MacBook is right there, but I wanted to do it sitting in the couch, qithout friction. I needed to redact some bits. I wanted to blur the text, not cover it. I couldn’t find a way to do that natively and the apps in the appstor all look sketchy or paid. I just need to do this once. And I couldn’t. So this is the blogpost that never was. Thank you for reading.

@simoncarstensen Hey Simon, big fan. I was thinking of building a *short post life feed* for my inner circle. Not private, I just remind them the link. I know I’m talking about a blog. I just wanted to be an anonymous no fuss blog like jottit but i’m not sure if I should use jotit or tinypost, I got confused. If this message gets you and you don’t mind, I appreaciate your advice since you’re the creator. Thank you in advace.
