Iβm trying Ulysses for the first time, and am impressed. It does a really good job and renders code blocks like no other markdown editor for iOS/iPadOS. Itβs perfect for long technical posts/articles π π¨βπ»

I was planning on writing a few long posts about Software Architecture, Modularization, and Unit Testing, but I always find something else to do instead. Maybe I should break these posts into series of shorter posts. Easier to write and commit to π¨βπ»
Saturday 8am. Coffee, Combine and async/await βοΈ π¨βπ»
π· Day 19: Indulgence. Morning coffee at a local coffee shop. I didn’t have my camera on me this morning, so I had to use my phone for this one.
π¨βπ» DuckDuckGo for macOS is fast. Incredibly fast.
π· Day 20: Beverage. For some people this isn’t “beverage” because it’s just (sparkling) water, but I don’t drink anything else other than water (and coffee).
After so many back and forth with Instagram, I decided to deactivate my accounts - public and private - there. Iβm impressed by the quality of the content I see in Glass.photo and will use the platform to share and browse photos.
Instagram:
Providing your birthday improves the features and ads you see, and helps us keep the Instagram community safe.
Instagram is now asking its users to provide their birthdate to target ads, while pretending they care about the community πΈ π¨βπ»
π· Yesterday I decided to experiment with different film simulations. I like the ideia of JPEG photos straight out of camera (SOOC) since they make you think more before shooting and embrace the errors you would get with a film camera. I turned RAW off and never went back.
π· The quality of the photos in Glass.photo is impressive. Kudos to the community there.
π· Day 12: Tranquility. This photo was taken at the MusΓ©e Rodin in Paris. The museumβs backyard is perfect to rest and recharge before going back to the craziness of the big city. I spent a good amount of time there, surrounded by trees and sculptures and enjoying the silence.
Family photo outside the Louvre β€οΈ π·
π΅ I canβt stop listening to The Sound Of Silence (Disturbed version).
π· Day 7: Park. This photo was taken at Parc du Champ de Mars in Paris. As the photo from day 6, this one is also straight out of camera.
π· Day 6: Silhouette. This photo was taken at Place des Vosges in Paris and itβs a straight out of camera picture - a.k.a. SOOC.
Third day riding my bicycle to work π² Felling healthy already π€£
After all these years, Flickr’s app didn’t improve much. Uploading photos, for instance, takes forever. But I’m back in the platform, and I love it, so I should stop complaining (and giving constructive feedback instead).
I’ll have to go thru all the photos I took during my vacations, fixing their timestamps. I completely forgot to adjust my camera’s clock when daylight saving time started this year. As result, the photos I took with my camera don’t match the time of those I took with my phone.
This morning I started writing about my trip to Paris. I took tons of photos to help to build the map of events and saved stamps, receipts, tickets, and museum stubs! Just have to fill the blanks now βοΈ π«π· π·
I saw a lot of wonderful things today, but nothing beats
Best anniversary ever!
π· Went to the Louvre today and spent a good number of hours it there. Itβs a magical place! Itβs amazing to see in person all those sculptures and paintings we see and learn about in the History books.

I love my Fuji camera, but its app for iOS is virtually impossible to use. I spent 30 minutes trying to make the camera and the app talk to each other, without succeed. The good thing is that the camera has an USB-C interface, therefore I can transfer photos directly to an iPad.
Micro.blog for macOS allows users to export their entries to Day One. I use Day One as a digital journal, but when importing my posts from Micro.blog I noticed some posts where missing. More specifically, posts with images. I’m submitting a patch.
The latest batch of subscriptions I canceled includes Pocket, Drafts, Tweetbot, Bear, and CARROT Weather.
