How app changelogs should be vs. how app changelogs usually are.

Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and then buy the pond. Tell him he can't have the fish, but he can fish for you and you will sell the fish and give him a very small cut, and then he'll say stuff like "I am hungry and my teeth hurt". Nobody wants to fish these days.

One from a few weeks ago that I have only just come across. It was taken shortly after sunrise in Glastonbury. That sky!

Firefall
Firefall is a relative newly discovered phenomenon discovered in Yosemite National Park not to be confused with the old firefall that was manmade.
This is a tough shot to get and some years it doesn't happen.
This is Horsetail Falls. In February, for roughly 10 days, the sun comes into alignment and reflects off of the rocks to create this phenom.

Q: Why don't seagulls fly over the bay?

A: If they flew over the bay, they'd be bagels!

I’ve been debugging the horizontal line across the bottom of the screen for a while now and just realised it is the YouTube progress bar.

An organic chemist did not have a hand in naming this. I describe in a handwritten scrawl why.

As most of you know, our library is being sued by 4 corporate publishers who want to stop the Internet Archive from lending books. The date for oral argument has just been set for March 20.

What's at stake? Lia Holland from @team elaborates: https://www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2023-02-23-statement-major-decision-on-libraries-digital-rights-a-step-closer-on-march-20

TikTok is likely to be banned.

The writing is on the wall.

I've seen this already play out with Huawei, and TikTok is following the same path.

First, TikTok was banned by the US Military. Now it's banned in numerous US governmental bodies, including Congress.

But now that's moving beyond the US.

Now European Commission is "temporarily" banning TikTok from employee phones.

Who wants to bet this "temporary" ban will become "permanent"?
