This would be a “good thing”.

Proud of my friends for avoiding this trap re: Cambridge Analytics.

I’ve made good progress in achieving a better ‘social’ approach. I’m using Mirco.blog+self-hosted Wordpress for posting & community aspects. I adopted Feedbin for RSS & following a few folks on Twitter so I can delete Twitter apps. FaceBook still an issue tho.
PSA re those polls asking about what you like etc. Also, this is part of why I never use real answers to security questions like “where were you born”.Too easy for the black hats to social engineer.

This description of what led up to the sinking of the El Faro is gripping and a good mix of the details of the events and narrative about the people involved.

So after the local EAS interrupted the TV weather covering the storm, we were left with a Fedora Linux login prompt on screen (TWCPlanoEAS). That’s not very useful…
Welp, I consider it officially Spring - we have our first tornado warning of the season. I saw it developing on @RadarScope (thanks @rosskimes) first. Then got emergency warning. And now the outdoor sirens are going off. Lasts a half hour!
Easy Access: How the Availability Heuristic Hurts Our Judgments
Twitter’s damaging API change coming in June will mean the end of accessing Twitter for me. No way I’ll use the official Twitter app #BreakingMyTwitter
Coffee shops are a happy place 😃 ☕️
Giving Feedbin.com a try and like it so far. I think it will definitely help with my continued move away from Twitter (and all the crap it has done to its timeline).
I’m one of those who never gave up on RSS feeds. I only read them on my iPad and have been using Newsify. Lately I see a lot of mentions of Feedbin but I’m not clear on what benefit that has. E.g. Does it always show full stories w/o click throughs (Newsify doesn’t)?
People used to argue the gap was due to women having less experience…

If you use 1Password it has a feature that will show you what sites you login to using the same password. Useful after incidents like the MFP breach. Always stick with unique passwords.
Managed to successfully switch to Let’s Encrypts new wildcard certificates. I think I’m done for the day 🤓
Is this rumor enough to get me to wait for the new Apple Watch before replacing mine?

Saw some mentions of e*World lately. Still have my beta tester t-shirt in the closet. It was indeed a great example of community.
Enjoyed waiting out the storm with a nice window view. Sadly all good things must come to an end (more expected later though).
So is Apple taking on Canvas with Schoolwork? That doesn’t seem likely to work out for a whole host of reasons. And it’s hard to see teachers wanting to deal with Schoolwork plus a comprehensive LMS like Canvas.
