Hi folks,

Just a quick reminder that August's #Bletchley & #MK #MathsJam is:

- *tomorrow*: Tuesday 22nd!
- at Brewhouse and Kitchen in Central Milton Keynes (close to the theatre, *not* to be mixed up with the Midsummer Tap which is very close and has "pub and kitchen" on the sign!).
- From 7pm

Bringing yourself is an absolute must, and any #mathematical #ideas, #conundrums, #puzzles, #tidbits, #games, #books, #toys or #tales are encouraged but completely optional.

If you're able to let me know if you're intending to come I'd appreciate it, otherwise just turn up. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

See you there,

Tom

33 Years of TidBITS: Handcrafted Content from Humans

I’ve been reading #Tidbits for at least 32 of these 33 years. Long enough anyway that I still think of #Markdown as a #Setext derivative. https://tidbits.com/2023/04/17/33-years-of-tidbits-handcrafted-content-from-humans/

@ricksaunders Detailed rundown here, from #Tidbits

Everything you wanted to know (actually more than you probably wanted to know) about the new #Apple Classical Music App from #Tidbits

@drdrang @adamengst has the goods at #TidBITS https://tidbits.com/2023/03/27/apple-releases-ios-16-4-ipados-16-4-macos-13-3-ventura-watchos-9-4-tvos-16-4-and-homepod-software-16-4/

Don’t sweat the small stuff, or the large files…

Good advice on managing MacOS free space on TidBits

https://tidbits.com/2023/02/24/auditing-free-drive-space-where-have-all-the-gigabytes-gone/

“More so than ever before, do not let your boot drive get low on free space. You may be prevented from working until you jump through space-clearing hoops that might be time-consuming and inconvenient.”

Interesting article on the potential of future Mastodon clients:

Interesting reading at #tidbits -- Mastodon Clients Could Do So Much More: https://tidbits.com/2023/02/10/mastodon-clients-could-do-so-much-more/

@adamengst “suggests that the time is right for Mastodon clients to revisit content-selection algorithms, but with two key differences”.
• The algorithm should be designed to serve the user, and only the user, in ways specified explicitly or implicitly by the user. (The lack of a corporate overlord also means there’s finally room to revisit the discussions surrounding Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics in the context of software agents.)
• The algorithm’s rules should be at least visible to the user, and preferably actively editable. It shouldn’t be difficult to specify people or topics that interest you more than others.

Love these ideas for Mastodon clients, via @adamengst, #TidBITS

I'd totally pay for apps that prioritize what he describes as "finishability" and "content selection."
