Notes

I’m currently also evaluating GoodLinks as replacement for pocket. So far so good.

Apple on Wednesday removed popular podcast player Pocket Casts from the App Store in China. According to the app’s developers, the removal of Pocket Casts was at the request of the country’s Cyberspace Administration, which determined that the app could be used to access content regarded as illegal in China.

When asked by the developer, Apple told them to contact Chinese authorities for details…

Apart from using Zoom, being in that kind of meetings is wrong. It’s everything but not productive. You got a lot of noise from mics not muted and you get people trying to speak simultaneously. I can’t even understand what some guys think : “Hey let’s put a maximum of employees there to nail that issue down!”

Any meeting beyond 15 people has to be moderated with raising hands etc. If you don’t do that the risk of chaos is just too high.

That being said: the mic discipline has improved quite a lot since everything started in March. By now most attendees of my university lectures and workshops know to join muted. WebEx not supporting push-to-talk doesn’t help, though.

Bars not but I’ve already visited a couple of my favorite restaurants again but only those who are spacious enough. The experience was good so far. The regulations and recommendations are also quite strictly controlled by various institutions.

But the person who is fixing the situation is killing us! So the social contract is broken! […] we black people are looking for equality and not revenge.

I’ve now gone as far as adding a reading goal onto my todo list for the day when I feel like I’m not making enough progress. I should probably do something similar for my Pocket list 😅

Naja, aber passive Kinder-Zeugen ist ja schwierig oder? Wie soll man sich das vorstellen? Auf den Sessel ejakulieren und warten bis sich wer draufsetzt?
