Hey, question for the lawyers here!

Is this "Statute of Limitations" thing something you'd expect to mention to your clients, or is it a super-obscure thing that might surprise you?

Asking for a friend.

I refresh the page in a new window and get the "click on bridges" prompt again.

So Google is controlling whether you do the app verification?

This can't be good....

Anyway I refuse to download the app as long as I can so I hope this doesn't get used for anything important

I don't love the privacy implications

@cwebber I still buy lots of paper books. But I actually cannot read them anymore.

I need an ereader's ability to enlarge fonts to rather silly sizes.

But with that, I can still read dozens of books a month.

Thank you @gutenberg_org for giving me enough reading material to last me a lifetime.

for anyone who enjoys my posts and is looking for more AI critique, I unfortunately don’t write anything long form

but @kimcrawley and the good folks at @stopgenai do, and they need your support to keep going: https://stopgenai.com/?page%5Fid=110

in addition, @davidgerard’s journalism is indispensable: https://pivot-to-ai.com/2026/05/16/pivot-to-ai-needs-your-support-sign-up-to-the-patreon-today/

posts like mine aren’t possible without the work of activists and journalists. what they do is unprofitable but crucial for the truth to survive.

Maybe it's old person shit but I dunno I love holding a physical book and reading it still. But I especially love not having to use DRM to read books, and I love libraries

Having "just paper" in front of me can be really comforting and can help me tune out distractions and enjoy the material at hand

So with Mac mini shipping dates for every model out past mid-June, are we just ordering M4s now and assuming they’ll ship M5 machines if the new ones are announced at wwdc?

PHP[tek] 2026 starts tomorrow in Chicago, and I won't be there.
Not because the schedule doesn't look interesting. A few talks would have caught my attention: event-driven architecture for resilient PHP apps, advanced SQL features most of us quietly ignore, semantic search and embeddings, or the NativePHP track. Even the advanced PHPUnit session sounds like the kind of deep dive I rarely make time for.
But flying thousands of kilometers for a three-day conference just doesn't fit with how I try to live. That's my call, not a criticism of anyone making the trip. Enjoy Chicago, enjoy the talks, enjoy the hallway conversations that often end up being the best part anyway... and share on the Fediverse ^^
