The left-aligned text for alerts in macOS Tahoe is such a welcome improvement. Apple just needs to center the icon and it’ll be good.

Experimental June: week two
It’s a very warm morning on Sunday the 15th and I just got up from my meditation cushion that I never failed to meet once since I started this experimental June. The return to meditation is going wonderfully and that pleases me greatly. I missed meditation, I know it’s good ...
Why Silicon Valley CTOs Are Secretly Moving Away from React | by Coders Stop | in JavaScript in Plain English - Freedium
“We’ve stripped React out of our highest-traffic user flows and replaced it with vanilla JavaScript using small, focused libraries for specific needs,” said the CTO of a streaming service. “Our page load times dropped by 60% and our conversion rates improved by 14%.”
Working together

If you think we need to find a way past the billionaires, then we have to find a way around the established media.

Another great philosopher, Les Moonves, said in 2016, "It may not be good for America, but it's damn good for CBS," referring to Trump's run for president. He was referring to increased viewership and resulting ad revenue. I'm sure it's still true today, though CBS stopped boasting about it in public.

Stay safe everyone going to a No Kings protest. I like this:
A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these.

MORE GOOD DAYS
OB today was fun again. Not much else to say. Not today. Be well. Ride waves.
Now that I’ve had a little more time with it, I see what Dia is going for. It’s not just about asking AI questions about a web page. It also aspires to become the starting point for all questions, replacing dedicated apps like ChatGPT or Claude.
Gatto from Enrico Casarosa sounds amazing:
The Annecy crowd cheered the announcement and went wild as Docter unveiled animation tests of a distinct, unique hand-painted look, something Pixar has never shown before. The film appears to be rich in colors from Venetian settings, and blends 2D hand paint textures with cutting-edge CG animation.

The linkblog project is coming along. Still more things to hook up but I thought it would be nice to take a picture of what a linkblog post looks like in the reader app.
