Always hard to beat a spreadsheet. I think today I'd use Airtable plus maybe a custom API integration to pull the deadlines out into an iCal feed so I can see them in my calendar
ooh I forgot about Airtable, this does sound like a good use for it! -
Any suggestions for tools for organizing all the conference proposals you submit? I'm struggling with all the CFP deadlines and keeping track of which I've already submitted to. Right now I just have a giant spreadsheet.

I deleted all my tweets (I saved the archive) with a plan to let a bot take over, but the bot is still saying stuff like, "To win it doesn’t take ribs playing football (when the username and donuts play Netrunner)" so I'm a little worried about it giving it full control...
Let's publish your tweet archive on kmikeym.com #ownyourdata -

tbh being able to acknowledge the challenge from my iOS lock screen without launching an app is the only reason I'm not constantly annoyed by this. SMS codes or worse, having to launch the app, is always ugh
I'm looking at you @Namecheap! I actually disabled the app 2fa and went back to SMS because the app experience was so horrible. -

Although I work in the security industry, I really hate multi-factor authentication. So... tedius. Every single time I get prompted for a second factor I feel myself instinctively *sighing*. You?

I just stumbled across this internal email exchange at Microsoft during the antitrust lawsuits and I am amazed at Bill Gates' detailed email complaining about the usability of trying to download Windows MovieMaker (spoiler: he can't figure it out) https://blog.seattlepi.com/microsoft/files/library/2003Jangatesmoviemaker.pdf
By popular demand, and since seattlepi.com is blocking EU visitors due to the GDPR, I've reproduced the PDF email thread as a web page so you can actually read it!

451 “not available in your region for legal reasons”. ... really?
gosh, for a PDF too! Give me a few minutes to copy this to a web page... -
Right now indielogin.com is in beta, and I'm not opening it up for other developers to use that instance just yet. (It's open source so of course you could host your own.) Once I finish email login (and maybe PGP authentication) I'll launch it. However I am also considering requiring that people sign up as a developer in order to use it once it's live, since that will help avoid getting into the situation we're in with indieauth.com now. I could see about making an account for this wordpress plugin though.

Uh oh, sorry! Please make sure you have crash reporting turned on in iOS settings so we can get a crash report and look into this for you.
Okay! Took me way too long to figure out how to turn that on. Also of course now it's not crashing anymore, but it still takes like a minute to start up after I close the app. -
SERIOUSLY please continue to send me pictures of your floofs with the @ohmydollar book because it is keeping me going. #purrsonalfinance
