Am starting to think these ‘Sorry to hear you’ve having trouble logging into Instagram’ e-mails are spam written in a scaremongering tone. I’ve barely used the app in years but I needed to look up something yesterday that caused me to launch it so they know there’s no problem.
I can crash Spotlight even if my entire hard disk is excluded from indexing and I have all categories disabled. Spotlight will also crash if the text is MES regardless of whether I get that by typing it directly or indirectly (say by typing MEDS and then deleting D).
Is there an e-mail newsletter about the regional usage of participle adjectives with nouns (e.g. ‘iced water’ vs ‘ice water’)?
I’ve found someone with a very similar issue Spotlight crashing issue to mine but the solution there doesn’t work for me :(
A problem with the argument that tech companies were right to wait til Wednesday to act (e.g. Ben Thompson) is that it assumes that the rioters were destined to fail. It shouldn’t have got this close. Can the right approach be to rely on incompetence?

I wish there were an easy way to install a command-line version of Windows inside a virtual machine. I think it’s possible but can’t find clear instructions of someone doing it.
I don’t know if Matt Yglesias is responsible for coining ‘Banana Republicans’ as a term to describe America’s crazy conservatives but it’s perfect.
I’m reading about conditions and restarts in Common Lisp and it’s blowing my mind.
I finally finished the first season of the Mandalorian. Wow, isn’t the end of that last episode incredibly rushed?
I can’t find a good online calendar with the fixtures for the Australian men’s cricket team. Does this really not exist any more?
There is a wiki entirely about wooden Thomas the Tank Engine toys. The Internet is great sometimes.
Can’t believe the Bourne Identity is almost 20 years old. That’s the distance between the initial release of A New Hope and the Special Editions.
I’m mostly happy with Safari but iCloud Tabs not working consistently is a never-ending source of frustration.
Kind of mystified that scrolling with the spacebar doesn’t work properly in Mail on iPadOS.
