Trying out an iPhone 13 mini before my wife takes it over. First things first visit the App Store to install a Mastodon client.

For some reason Apple’s algorithm thinks that Truth Social is the most relevant result for a search for “mastodon” 🤮

Everyone criticising inattentive drivers of #Level2 #AutonomousVehicles when outside the Operational Design Domain of the auto steer and incident detection systems seem to be missing the key takeaway from the 1948 Mackworth study on vigilance.

A great piece from @ibogost

I look forward to the day when all the productivity tools around me produce more than additional labour for me.

The use of predictive models in judicial settings has always made me uneasy. @randomwalker gets to the root of the issue in this article by @Julia:

“Is the best decision one that doesn’t correspond to a prediction at all? What is the best way to rehabilitate this person and decrease the chance that they will commit another crime? It opens up the possibility of a much wider set of interventions."
