A year ago, I tested the responses from Google's Vision API using a tool called "They See Your Photos" which showed Google's analysis was riddled with inaccuracies and weird judgements.

I ran another experiment this year to see what, if anything, had changed and –wow!– have there been changes! […]

Whoops. Been off of Mastodon accidentally for almost a month and didn't have FOMO. Anyhow, I am definitely not gonna reread those 3K toots 😂

Ever needed a modern way to design an ER diagram for your database? I think I just found the solution an it's open source and all the data lives on your device! https://github.com/AHS12/thoth-blueprint

Ah, Bluesky, my sweet summer child.

You're going to enforce your "rules against harassment and toxic content". And then you'll discover that it's the same set of people doing the toxic shit. And those toxic people are connected to really powerful people from a specific political party.

And […]

So I looked at Tahoe release (in VM). Some highlights:

- Window toolbar changing color from white to black for no reason

🆕 blog! “Is it possible to allow sideloading *and* keep users safe?”

In which I attempt to be pragmatic.

Are you allowed to run whatever computer program you want on the hardware you own? This is a question where freedom, practicality, and reality all collide into a mess.

Google has recently […]

There's not much more to add. Just, that it is an Apple issue too!

The new iOS is still somewhat of a mess. While the liquid glass elements have gotten more legible, I now see a weird inconsitency in the keyboard. Apps that aren’t up to date show the old non-rounded keyboard with a slight shadow on each key. Newer apps the […]

🆕 blog! “We've got to stop sending files to each other”

Another day, another data breach.

the spreadsheet, initially shared in 2022, and thought to contain data related to a small number of applicants, had contained hidden data related to more than 18,000 people.

ICO statement in response to […]

Funny enough, I did a redesign of my website in January/February and I am also mimicking glass elements. As it turned out for me, I had to tone down the transparency quite a bit to make things well readable. That's why I am really surprised of how bad things are with #ios26. I know it's still an […]

Just installed the iOS 26 Beta for a test drive on my spare iPhone and while the glassy look is fancy to some degree, it makes things poorly visible. I am sure a lot of people will have troubles reading text on such transparent layers and generally finding […]

Just realised that 1Password is from Canada and not from the US. That gives me some relief 😅 #1password #europe #canada

Grocery stores trying to make it easier to spot products that they assert are prepared in Canada:

This solution feels somewhat hacky to me. Why not throw a “aria-labelledby” on it instead of having a span positioned above it all? https://youtu.be/-h9rH539x1k

What a historic day. Turns out Trump is not a peacemaker after all... Zelenskyy did the right thing by correcting Trump's lies

So people still haven't decided whether to delete Twitter: after Musk's obvious salute it should be a no brainer. What the hell is going on in this world. I can't stand it

This makes me reconsider if my slowly dying iPhone will be replaced with yet another iPhone. I highly dislike the direction Apple is heading in regarf to Cools decicions.
