As I watch my wife share photos from her phone, mirrored on the TV/AppleTV, I see the value in a TV that auto-rotates from landscape to portrait.

what if square TVs so that the photos can be full size without compromising for either orientation

OH on Discord: “Hey, what is the minimum USD amount for an OAuth transfer”

(which is a mind-blowing concept if you’ve been around the protocol as long as I have)

nope nope nope shut it all down

. @vidsummit is next week and I wish I could be there 😕
If you're going here is my advice:
- the networking is AMAZING.
DO IT!
- the hallways have the most action when it comes to meeting new people.
- take notes.
- collab while you're there.
- have fun!
#VidSummit2021

I'm gonna try to go next year! Hope to see you then!

I don’t even need an iPad mini. But now I want one. I think I have been influenced.

I have owned every version of the iPad Mini and would do it again. I was real sad when there were no updates for a couple years and it looked like they were going to discontinue it entirely!

I ❤️ podcasters who nail the guest relationship for mutual success.

Pre-recording expectations. Post-recording info so guests can share in the best ways.

In related news, @buildcuriosity is really good at it.

Agreed! I had a similar experience with @changelog!

"You've been upgraded to iCloud+ for free" is an email that everyone who upgrades to #iOS15 will receive.

One of these is not like the other.

https://www.apple.com/icloud/

#HomeKit #Privacy

I just got that email and I haven't updated any devices to iOS 15 yet unless something is set to auto update. But also there's no mention of how long this "free" lasts so I am skeptical.

@aaronpk I’ve got a vegetarian friend visiting Portland and they’re looking for lunch recommendations. Any tips?

There's too many options to give a recommendation without more criteria! But I'd also suggest looking up places on Happy Cow, there should be some good tips there!

I’m sorry for the delay in responding to your email address so I can send you the info I sent you to send me.

Oh that’s gold.

I’m sorry for being a part of the group chat with you but I think it’s weird to have internet.

Let me take a stab: you were thinking that whole foods was a relatively decent, liberal company that would somehow remain independent of the evil Amazon behemoth.

I mean, I literally said "I fully expected this to happen at some point" in the tweet 🤷

My in-store Whole Foods purchases are now showing up in my Amazon order history page and while I fully expected this to happen at some point I am just not sure how I feel about it now

Right now they only show up for search terms matching items in the order. I can't find an actual list of all the purchases anywhere.

Also they show up with "Gift Card" as the payment method for some reason.

NAB just got cancelled. You know what that means. I can pretend I was really definitely for sure going to go and it's not my fault I can't now.

Same. I had actually booked flight and hotel but wasn't ever really convinced it was going to happen. It was all free cancellation tho.

We should call them on the variable offers. They quoted me $20 more, probably based on subscriber numbers. I wonder what Casey Neistat was offered… Probably $500 bucks

Okay but now I'm feeling left out that I didn't even get an offer for $100

Take a look - here's ~3,000 points from a run I did a few years ago as a CSV https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2021/workout_points.csv

That's excellent resolution! I don't suppose there's any way to get the data out of the watch/phone without some sort of manual effort?
