Ah, #TidBITS, the fountain of wisdom on all things #Apple, where "thoughtful, detailed coverage" means pondering the existential crisis of a word processor that may or may not exist. 🤔💻 If #Schrödinger were a software developer, he'd surely be proud of introducing more uncertainty into our lives. 🐱💻

Attended a masterclass in computer backup strategies this morning with Adam Engst of TidBITS in which he ended it with a delightful, Gilbert and Sullivan themed song, I am the very model of a modern backup strategy.

“When the path forward seems unclear, I believe we can best contribute by modeling the behavior we want to see in the world…. For TidBITS, that means writing clearly and accurately, prioritizing thoughtfulness and depth over speed, acknowledging our mistakes, and engaging with readers on a personal level. It means practicing kindness, decency, and respect whenever possible.” Adam Engst
Why TidBITS has been essential reading for 35 years.

This is a great article on the latest macOS version of Photos by #TidBITS @adamengst . So many useful hints and tips. New features often sneak up on you if you don’t have a good look every now and then. https://tidbits.com/2025/04/10/new-organizational-features-in-photos-in-macos-15-sequoia/

@tek FWIW if I were to upgrade to #DEVONthink Server it’d be only $255 with my @TidBITS membership, which also scores a heap of other benefits, not the least of which is keeping #TidBITS going strong in its 34th year and beyond: https://TidBITS.com/membership/benefits/

Great post on TidBITS about weather apps and websites. Lots there I had never heard about. Especially love the clean design of the Norwegian Meteorological Institute website yr.no, and it works around the world.

Hi folks,
Just a quick reminder that August's #Bletchley & #MK #MathsJam is:
- *tomorrow*: Tuesday 22nd!
- at Brewhouse and Kitchen in Central Milton Keynes (close to the theatre, *not* to be mixed up with the Midsummer Tap which is very close and has "pub and kitchen" on the sign!).
- From 7pmBringing yourself is an absolute must, and any #mathematical #ideas, #conundrums, #puzzles, #tidbits, #games, #books, #toys or #tales are encouraged but completely optional.
If you're able to let me know if you're intending to come I'd appreciate it, otherwise just turn up. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
See you there,
Tom
