For the last few months, I've been disabling notifications for any app that sends notifications that serve the company's interest more than mine. What I have discovered is that many apps ignore their own notification settings. It's a waste of time to change them. This is especially true of any Meta app.

A little over a year ago, I started getting back into technical blogs and RSS feeds. This little corner of the Internet has a lot of high quality content that I enjoy. That said, I don't like most RSS readers. I want something simpler, more like a personal aggregator. I landed a change to miniflux to hold me over, but I'm tinkering with building my own. Since I managed to get RSS feeds parsing ... I played with summarizing with open source models.
I think I'm starting to understand why AI is so appealing to business leaders.
