Epilogue for iOS and Android has been updated with a new Libby interface. It’s easier to connect to Libby and have Micro.blog sync your library loans and holds to bookshelves.

My dot isn’t usually that proactive, but every once in a while it’ll send me something unprompted that is generally useful. Magic. ✨

Boris Mann blogged about moving on to the new Atmosphere Community Cooperative full time, and why a co-op:

Something that anyone can join, including other organizations. Rather than “the foundation isn’t doing X or Y” and pointing fingers, a co-op is a platform for joining and getting things done - with infrastructure and other resources available.

John Gruber blogging about the HomeView:

… the hardware is top-notch but the software is like bits of iOS, WatchOS, tvOS, and CarPlay cut up and assembled into a ransom letter.

A core tension between AI skeptics and AI proponents is whether training data is theft or fair use. You can see it in the loaded words that people choose to use. Almost impossible to find compromise or nuance in debates when we all start at such far apart extremes. Sad, really.

Spurs on a nice 11-game winning steak. But there will be tough games ahead, and the season is so early that despite the wins they’re only tied for 1st in the west. Fun to watch, though… I think Wemby looks even better than last season. 🏀

Watched the first episode of 12 12 12. I’ll watch almost anything with a heist. Just hope they don’t get too clever going back and forth with flashbacks… Good start, though. 📺

Parker Ortolani is impressed with the HomeView:

It’s been shockingly fast and responsive when I’ve barked orders at it controlling the lights or changing the music that’s playing on it. The hardware feels incredibly premium, which is of course not surprising. But for a $299 device, it is next level.

John Gruber in another blog post on fallout from Jensen Huang:

… the degree to which Alice Huang worked for or with China’s MSS is almost a footnote on this scandal. It’s not central to the story at all.

Except that the “spy” story is what captured people’s attention. News media was all over it. The smuggling is complicated and the affairs alone might not have been enough to force Jensen out, at least not so quickly.
