@lapcatsoftware I honestly can’t remember where StopTheMadness stops and my ad blocker begins sometimes; my mother is complaining about Admiral and other ad blocker stoppers, but I never see those. Is STM saving me or am I just not browsing those sites?

@gruber Any take on Hotline/the revival of it? I've never heard of this software before seeing this thread as someone who was barely online and not on a Mac in the era https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42959841

I feel very constrained when I lack quick ways of reordering lines of text. I’m so much less nimble when forced to work in a Google Doc than most of my notes apps because of this alone.

@gruber I like the new Fox score bug; I wonder though, what is the worst score bug in all of sports right now? NBC RSNs’ baseball score bug is the first that comes to mind for me

@marcoarment as a fellow coffee nerd: Be careful about changing ‘normal’ people’s coffee! People who seem to us fine with ‘any old crap’ often have many things they’re particular about. Maybe not your employees, but they might have a very strong sense of how long the pot needs to be off the […]

During the first season of Severance I regretted reading the subreddit because so many fan theories wound up being right, so I swore off it for s2. But TikTok has realized I really like Severance, so I’m just as screwed.

I’m honestly not sure how existential a threat LLMs are to large swathes of the educational system re:student assessment. But I feel pretty confident in saying a kid’s never gonna be able to hook a ChatGPT to their saxophone.

@macsparky I sometimes need to make short demonstration videos for students – is there a great way to hide sharing people suggestions when you’re making an iOS screencast you’ve found? Or do you just have a separate device for those?

@gruber There are so many stellar characters and performances in Severance, but no one has such a hard role to master as Tramell Tillman; and he sticks the landing like an Olympic gymnast. They’re all doing a stellar job, but Milchick’s…vibes (which I find literally ineffable) are a microcosm […]

@rizzi I’ll throw out there that my #1 feature request on Reeder (classic) would be better footnote support. I realize some of the challenges inherent in the way they’re setup, but I find NNW has a nice implementation as a model! I like a few things about Reeder better than NNW personally though.

Goodyear should do a deal with Apple to put immersive cameras dangling off the Goodyear blimp like someone tied to a blimp in an action movie. That’d be a way to watch football.

@mactanaka Hypothetically, is it possible for another app to watch Play if it’s open 24/7 on a Mac and export any data? Say set up an automation to automatically run yt-dlp on anything added to Play?

Alright, think I’m swayed by the recent episode of The Talk Show that @gruber did with @kagihq CEO to roll with Kagi search for a few months. I’m not unhappy with my Google results today given my search patterns and adblocking; but I’m moved by their philosophy to give it a try anyway.

I think part of the appeal of Severance to me is that in that show it is bad that people have a separation from their jobs, and I do not have that in my life and need to feel vindicated in some small way.

If you use #obsidian or any other #markdown interfaces that use callouts, I set up a TextExpander snippet a few months ago for them. Could never remember the syntax or different names for things. https://app.textexpander.com/public/6a6ffb9d843e08f0be7f659d7f99f804

Does anyone have any decent BlueSky clients? Their default app is so rough. Not trying to argue about BS usage, but for what it’s worth, this still feels like my post-Twitter “home”

No one is obligated to use it, but seeing so many people here hate on Surf on principle bums me out. Proprietary or not, with whatever motives, I think it’s cool to see people build stuff on top of this open social network. I want more stuff built on it, even if it’s not for me.
