There's a café in Berlin with the worst possible egg-related pun: "Café EGGRYTHING". Why did they choose that when "Ist mir Eggal" was right there?

Sure, invite me to your mysterious meeting. No need for a heads-up or a note in the invite explaining what it's about. Don't sweat it, just send it; the fewer details I have, the better. I thrive in the nebulous void of information, I love being unprepared & exposed to the Great Unknown from 9 to 5.

I can't stop thinking about this article on the privilege of writing bad at work. It totally matches my experience. I also think bad grammar doesn't just worsen as people go up the ladder, it also has to do with most people in power being unempathetic sociopaths tadaima.bearblog.dev/privilege-is...

Privilege is bad grammar

When I got my first real job, I used to get so nervous about writing emails to my boss. I would run spellcheck, triple-check the grammar, read over it again ...

I'm having a lot of fun working on and using my Anki companion app: Ankitron. And I'm also very happy with the new website I built, where you can test the app without downloading it: ankitron.com

Now on the blog: a funny binocular shot from Lured (1947), a terrific noir starring Lucille Ball and George Sanders about a poetically inclined serial killer. Hat tip to @nazaret.bsky.social binocularshot.com #binocularshot #movies

I added support for @standard.site on my blog a couple of weeks ago and then proceeded to not publish a post because my love for open-source protocols will always be eclipsed by my true love: avoiding writing at all costs.

Someone created a blog to collect elevator/lift scenes in media (liftsinfilm.com). My challenge now is to find a binocular shot that could appear on that site and also on binocularshot.com

If you're a Mac Anki user as picky about its interface as I am, I built something for you and me: a lightweight Mac app with a cleaner UI for studying decks and managing cards. It works by running Anki in headless mode, but with a nicer-looking interface (IMHO). Get it at: ankitron.javier.computer

Sinceramente, unos octógonos negros (quizá los polígonos más terroríficos de todos) no solucionarán el problema. Como diseñador, propongo algo más sencillo: calificar la nota del Nutri-Score con otro Nutri-Score (pero más pequeño). Así el comprador entenderá cómo de buena es la valoración asignada.

Ejemplo, imagen de una noticia de El País de hoy. Izquierda, España. Derecha Chile. No necesito que nadie me diga si es saludable o no con una formula oscura como el nutriscore. Solo necesito saber bien claro las 4 elementos que destacan en Chile. Yo decido, con información veraz

When hackers stole my Instagram username in 2024, they had to use social engineering skills and the obituary of a person who shared my name. But now, thanks to the power of AI, they can just use an VPN and ask politely. That's what I call progress!

New: Hackers have been stealing high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI support chatbot to change the email associated with the account they want to steal. Shockingly easy, terrible flaw associated with offloading support to AI: www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

I've released a new version of "Are.na Manager" (an @obsidian.md plugin to interact with @are.na ) to use the new Are.na API. I also improved several commands, and you can now fetch public blocks from other users. community.obsidian.md/plugins/aren...

If you are giving a commencement speech, my recommendation would be to enthusiastically mention AI as much as possible. I hear people love it! It's also a type of content I recently discovered I enjoy a lot. Thanks!

Queridas madrileñas y visitantes: Por aquí unos planes para la semana que viene 📝

"It's Fun to Use Your Brain!" is a series of books that I'll begin publishing in 2030 that will make me rich thanks to the damaging effects of AI on reasoning and critical thinking skills.
