In prep for WWDC, reading up on some things I should’ve learned about Apple Foundation Models a year ago. I think I had dismissed it quickly because the on-device models are so small by frontier AI standards.
People and blogs involved with and about the IndieWeb community, the fediverse, and/or the open web in general.
The Knicks won again last night. They're now up 2-0, both games on the road. This has blown my sense of reality. This Knicks team bears no resemblance to what I think of as the Knicks. Hard to concentrate. Will Trump try to put his name of Madison Square Garden.
Worked out some of my disappointment with that basketball loss by writing a bunch of new code. Always feels good to make progress on something.
Insane 4th quarter. Heartbreaking final 10 seconds. 🏀
Almost glad I’m not at the game because too many Knicks fans in San Antonio. Tough series so far. Spurs played better in game 1 but couldn’t get the win. Knicks playing better so far in game 2. One more quarter to go! 🏀
This Week in the IndieWeb
I didn’t expect Google of all companies would need to rent server space from SpaceX. I wonder how they’re preparing to accommodate the new Gemini-powered Siri, too.
I don’t listen to Pivot regularly anymore, because I need a break from politics, but sometimes Scott Galloway captures an idea perfectly:
The ultimate luxury item isn’t a home in Aspen or a Gulfstream. It’s being 28 and figuring out a way to live in New York, and knowing that every time you leave your house, your life could change. You could find someone to fund your business. You could find a cofounder. You could find just some incredible inspiring piece of art or culture. You could find someone you end up marrying.

Cześć wszystkim, Kraków… I made the call not to fly to Poland for WordCamp Europe. I’m very sorry for the last-minute notice; I was really hoping to make it. I’m okay, but I want to stay close to loved ones going through difficult times. Seeing the pictures from Contributor Day warms my heart. Bardzo za … Continue reading WCEU →
Google could do a mixture of AI and search. I want to search my blog for a place where I discuss the idea of hate is betrayed love even if I don't use the actual words. I bet they're working on it.

It's really cool we get another NBA Finals game tonight. I'm rehearsing what it feels like to be a fan of the Eastern Conference Champion NY Knicks. It still hasn't even slightly sunk in yet.

Anthropic self-improvement, pause
Great point by JA Westenberg about AI indecision. I’ve noticed this too:
But ask again, and keep asking, and it’ll offer a balance and then immediately surface the conditions under which the recommendation would flip. The model is doing what it was trained to do: give you an analysis and respect your autonomy, while avoiding the confident pronouncement that might mislead you. You came to the model wanting to be pushed, wanting someone or something to break the tie, and you got an oracle that hands the tie-breaking back to you with every prompt.
Turns out we have to make our own decisions.
I had a thoroughly enjoyable three days of hosting UX London this week and met such lovely people at the event—thank you to everyone who came!

Another screenshot from the upcoming Micro.blog 4.0 for Mac. I don’t edit blog categories often, so I was always fine with this as a web-only feature until now. Adding it to the Mac version is handy for filtering posts. Lots of small UI improvements in this release.
