The coolest thing about the new HomePod is the in-built temperature sensor. I will finally prove to everyone else in the house that my room is colder than the thermostat reads.

Twitter (Musk I assume) has it backward. Their API isn’t just providing value to apps. The apps provide value to *Twitter*.
They want to charge for API access, but they're only hurting themselves because they risk losing a lot of third-party functionality that Twitter users enjoy.

This government thing I was waiting on came through! https://bw.status.lol/63d98ee772406
@andy@bell.bz Great points! I take issue with the premise that the developer experience is always good on these frameworks. It’s likely you will sink a lot of time into building stuff, farting around with dependencies, and having to learn the obscure Framework Way of doing a thing.
Yes, a framework might help you jumpstart a project. But that technical debt can be hard to deal with over time.
(lol I say this as a person who uses Vue a lot and generally likes it but like, still tho)

Ok, time to work on this thing. Oh, let me start some music. Wait, the Spotify version of this album doesn’t have the bonus track. No problem, I'll use Bandcamp. Wait, then I can’t scrobble to Last.fm. I bet there’s a way—ah, yes a browser extension. I'll install that. Ok, now what as I doing again?

I thought my 1Password install was effed somehow. But turns out there is currently a known bug in 1Password that is preventing it from connecting with the browser extension.
