In reading my myriad #unread emails, I realized how many annoying emails #LinkedIn has sent me over the years.
I got one this morning.
I went to LinkedIn to change mailing preferences.
LinkedIn said "Your log-in attempt appears #suspicious, please provide the #verification number we just emailed you."
Damn it, LinkedIn, I want fewer emails and you're sending another. The suspicious activity of my log-in attempt to LinkedIn is that I would log into LinkedIn at all.

Now that I have pretty much decided on #ivory for mastodon, now it’s onto RSS apps
I pretty much switch between #unread and #reeder
Unread looks great but once I get a larger backlog, reeder seems to do a better job with managing feeds
Support for reeder has always been a bit lacking though.
@ellane An RSS reader is just an app that reads RSS feeds like an email app reads e-mail mailboxes or a web browser reads web pages. #Reeder an #Unread are good apps, and so is #NetNewsWire.
It's the smallest thing, but for some reason Apple seems to want Unread to verify that I want to add a link to Safari's reading list every time I save one. I don't have to do that with other share actions. Not sure how this serves my interests.
Also hilarious to me that making me move my thumb <0.5" feels like a forced march across the frozen tundra after two or three repetitions.

2,000 books is amazing, we're probably in the same league. I rarely loan books out to friends, I give them spare copies of my favorites #UsedBooks
It's less painful that way
Here's a fun fact for us #BookHoarders
#Tsundoku "is the Japanese word for the stack(s) of books you’ve purchased but haven’t read."
The #unread books in one's personal #library serve as a valuable reminder of how much we #DontKnow

Tsundoku "is the Japanese word for the stack(s) of books you’ve purchased but haven’t read."
#TLDR - surrounding yourself with #books is good.
#Sermon - The #unread books in one's personal #library serve as a valuable reminder of how much we #DontKnow
That #wisdom is as important as the #knowledge gained from the books you've already read

Surprised IO does not have an #unread method. I'm trying to implement a method like IO#expect but that reads until a regex is matched, then pushes the remainder of the read data back into the IO read buffer.
Aside from the need to really clean out my inbox, I keep landing on this number. 😬
I'll bump up to 680 then delete a bunch and I look over and I'm back at 666. Delete more to get below, look over an hour later, and 666!
Next step, select all, delete!
