I’ve owned these Plantronics wireless earbuds for a while now but one thing really bugs me about them and in particular, the case design:

What bugs me is that the blue earbud on the left actually goes in the right ear. The black earbud goes in the left ear. Who would design a case where the earbud are positioned in the case as they go to their particular ear.

This is a huge flaw in my mind but got through design, management, user testing, management and out the door. Someone screwed up or worse, didn’t care about the end user.

Apple would never let this happen.

I’ve been spending some time using Notion AI lately and it surprisingly good. Since all the rage lately is ChatGPT, I wanted to compare the two.

Any one know if Notion is using its own technology?

Is Mastodon the Modern BBS?

Spending some time this morning exploring Mastodon. It’s definitely interesting and really looks to have serious traction. The distributed nature of it reminds me of the days I was fascinated by the BBS (Bulletin Board System).

I used to spend my nights going from one BBS to another looking for free software, pirated or not, while my friends were out chasing girls.

I have to withhold too much opinion just yet, but it feels pretty good.
