May Dame Maggie Smith rest in peace. She outlasted the NYT arts editor who wrote the bulk of her obituary but passed away in 2023.
I’m surprised at how frequently people blow off / miss introductory meetings. It’s upsetting to make time, to show up on time, then to find crickets. I suppose there’s more than a little truth that 80% of success is showing up. (And 20% is frustration at blown off meetings.)
Kudos to @REI on their packaging for running clothes. Minimal materials. No plastic. Easy to remove. Looks very nice. Well done!
Great article by @chockenberry@mastodon.social (via @mjtsai@mastodon.social) on supporting Dynamic Type with just a few lines of CSS.
This was easy to implement, and I really appreciate Craig taking the time to share. Thanks!
TIL Laughing is not compatible with Transparency Mode on AirPods Pro 2. It causes the sound to drop out as though I were talking with someone rather than chuckling at Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me.
Congratulations to @RapidWeaver@indieapps.space on your 20th birthday! 🍰🎈

It’s always fun to listen, and what an accomplishment!
Really enjoyed talking with Àlex Rodríguez Bacardit at Startup Grind Barcelona on Tuesday. Was caught on camera by Victor Horcasitas demonstrating my “useless superpower,” namely leading camp songs.
Hi Mom & Dad! 👋
I’m really excited to chat with Àlex Rogríguez Bacardit of MarsBased at Startup Grind Barcelona next week (Tuesday, May 21, 6:30pm GMT+2).
I’m always amused when I learn that guests have arrived via a notification from the eero before they even reach the doorbell: “A new device has joined Smile”
Congratulations @jsnell@zeppelin.flights and @imyke@myke.social on Episode 500 of the Upgrade podcast! 🎉 🎂
“Strange Game” is such the perfect theme song for “Slow Horses,” which is such a fun show. Binged Season 3 on a long-haul flight recently. Highly recommend.
#MyFirstMac was a PowerBook 140. I came late to the Mac, having brought a home-built 386 PC with me to college. I’ve enjoyed making up for lost time. Happy 40th, Macintosh!
Congratulations, @ismh@eworld.social, on joining @_Davidsmith@mastodon.social’s company! 🎉
Congratulations, @danielpunkass, on the release of Black Ink for iOS! 🎉
Kudos to @vincent and tinylytics 🎉. Was tinkering with my site, and tinylytics’ down detector caught a mistake I had made. Saved me unnecessary downtime. Thanks!
PSA: BBEdit 15 is available. Just bought my upgrade. Thanks, @siegel@mastodon.social & team!
This evening is Twelfth Night. Here’s more on how it’s celebrated in Barcelona. Not surprisingly, it involves pastry.
