Apple will forever be on my shit-list if they do not take advantage of the marketing opportunity involving “The Ultimate Computer” episode.

Reboot Star Wars off of Andor. - Andor - Rogue One - Solo - A New Hope (reboot) - and so on…

I hope IT departments start using the Krennic / Dedra / Death Star scene for training on data breaches. 👇

The act of “signing” for anything is purely performative. I have no idea what I just scribbled on that pad. I honestly don’t even know what you’re comparing it to. I cannot even forge my own signature at this point.

Today I’m reflecting on Stranger Things and the fact that even though I grew up in the 80s I had never heard that song before.

Visit guitar tabs website. Get bombarded by musical instrument and accessory ads for a week. I have only myself to blame. (added to wish list)

All day. Every day.

Tomorrow is Indie Book Seller Day. You should head to your local bookstore and oh…I don’t know…get a copy of my book?! bookshop.org/p/books/let-...

OpenAI will just become the next monopoly if they have possession of Chrome. Chrome should NOT go to any random highest bidder. Candidates should be vetted before being allowed to bid. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

RE the TTD miss - their stock suffered a lot, but is it indicative of industry headwinds, or just that someone else grabbed their growth while they weren't looking?

Something about the song careless whisper. Everyone was saying it should have been your intro music on the pod

Hey everybody circling back right now can stay in that holding pattern until like mid-October this runway is FULL

After years of trying to convince people that their phones are not listening to them... turns out the phones were indeed listening to them without their consent. $95M doesn't feel like enough to restore my trust or the trust my friends and family had in me. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Does everyone have their milestones wrapped this roadmap season?

Good night for stargazing if you like meteor showers.

For search and so many other reasons. An independent Chrome would be better, but selling it to a company without such a large interest in advertising (or better yet, no interest in advertising at all) would do for now. Sell it to the Mozilla foundation. 😁 9to5google.com/2024/11/18/u...

What do we call these little posts on BlueSky? It's not a tweet or a thread. Skywriting? Blueys? Do we give up on naming the little posts? Twitter and tweets went well together. Not sure any other social media platform has ever quite perfected a grammatical pairing like that.

Quite the migration of followers coming from ... 🐦 over there. Went from single-digits to 200 followers in a matter of a few days.
