Whoa, roon-tui lets you control Roon from a terminal! This is very cool and makes me want to learn just a little Rust to be able to tinker with it.

I spent some time today rewriting a shortcut that uploads images to the media endpoint I use for my blog. It now covers all my core use cases of converting HEICs where needed and resizing images that are too big. I’m super pleased at these improvements, and am still impressed that it works on both my desktop and iPhone, but also – oof, working in shortcuts still feels unintuitive and clunky so often.

Figure I’ll get Ventura installed today. I think I’ve been holding off – for nearly a year – because I’ve been concerned it would break something in brew.

SourceCodeSyntaxHighlight is a great drop-in plugin to enable syntax highlighting in the MaxOS finder’s quick view. Just what I needed to improve the experience of scanning json files in the finder!

Apropos of just sitting here with it tinkering things in with RStudio, this M1 MacBook Pro still feels extraordinarily good, a month+ in.

MacOS/Shortcuts folks: Can I send a photo to a shortcut via quick actions? I can run the action in a shortcut to pop up the little picker, but can’t figure out if there’s a way to do it from within Photos itself. I want to be looking at an image, run an action, and send that image to a workflow. I think I’m mistaken in believing that this should work.
