I rejoined X today. Doesn’t feel right. I think I’ll be a pure lurker. Their anti-pattern of not being able to see all current tweets was the reason I had to sign back up. I couldn’t follow Dublin v Mayo on X last week, as it wasn’t showing a live view of updates.

Still got my @dermdaly back, which was nice.

Is it strange that Apple emailed developers about Xcode 26.3, and released a video about it but it isn’t in the App Store yet ?(at least not for me, in Europe). I can download the Release Candidate from the developer portal, but this seems like a mis-step.

If you downloaded Codex from OpenAI yesterday, and then was told that your token was expired and then couldn’t find a logout option, you’re not alone. Here’s what worked for me:

I think the funeral of Renee Nicole Good will be massively attended. I think her name will always be synonymous with a turning point and a need for change.

I’m not convinced the change is coming though.

On iOS the threads app has a wonderful attention to detail I’ve not come across anywhere else. As you do a pull to refresh, there’s a very subtle haptic that actually feels like you’re stretching an elastic band. It pops nicely when you go beyond the stretch. Try it out! It’s not the same as other pull to refresh which play a basic haptic once the refresh begins.
This was probably well covered before, but it’s new to me!

Dublin City got one of these photo-op signs. I like it.
The bin and bin an street bollard that obscures the photo, not so much.

Taxi drivers have a gripe with Uber. So they take it out on the city.
