That Blame Brett song is literally living rent-free in my head. I'm okay with that ☺️

It's on a constant loop. Do other people’s brains act like a tape deck and replay songs you like almost as if you are actually listening to them?

Mine always has.

Play counts on Apple Music are very slow to update and often don't match across devices.

I'll bet there is some ancient WebObjects-based batch process that runs daily and weekly to add up the plays from different devices.

I think that Apple Replay gets the right totals at the end of each week when it's updated.

I skipped the first section of the latest Countdown with Keith Olbermann. I don’t need another discussion of murdered people in a mass shooting in my life today. 😕

Brilliant. Jordon Miller explains what Blame Brett is about. It’s not about looking back. 😊

Not sure which I'm excited for most about the new apartment - the quiet, the big balcony or the dishwasher.

I've managed to scratch my right eye, so this should be fun for the next couple of days.

@geoffduncan Ah. I don’t have it yet. And I’m I’m just a hobbyist.

@geoffduncan I don’t think anything is the future. Everyone is different and likes to work in different ways. It’s the individuality and creativity each brings to the work that’ll matter.

Same with AI tools in other creative fields. Like LLMs in writing.
