Gonna give Outlook for iOS another try. Staying with Spark on the Mac though — that’s as good as it gets and I haven’t found an alternative yet.

GDPR Casualty: Instapaper

So Instapaper is temporarily shutting off access for European users due to GDPR

But the comment of the day goes to:


Thankfully, a handful of privacy-minded fellow europeans came to the rescue in the comment section: Screen Shot 2018-05-24 at 09.20.40.pngScreen Shot 2018-05-24 at 09.20.47.png

There’s something awesome, but also kinda hilarious, about the second biggest european tech conference being in France, with 65% french people, all speaking in English!

Encouraging though!

Long week

Part Two of the Family Weekend: After our Saturday hike around Howth, we spent some time around the city, including a quick visit to the Teeling Whiskey Distillery!

The end of a really nice weekend with my parents, who came to visit, and Shana —as always!

Within: A magazine about leadership for women in design/tech

If you’re in the US, you should really support and have a look at Within

Personally, I’d love to support these amazing women, but I can’t justify $30 shipping fees on top of a $40 project backing. However, I’m happy to share the word to support this amazing project!

The new Ali Wong special on Netflix is all kinds of hilarious! Go watch it without hesitation!

ICYMI, the latest episode of The Verge’s Vergecast Podcast is incredibly thoughtful.

Over the hour-long episode, it sums up a lot of my own interrogations, fears and doubt about Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and the ethics behind these emerging technologies that haven’t matured and for which no one has a blueprint yet.

These are things that have been on my mind for the past few years, and especially this past week with the Google Duplex news (aka a Robot Assistant pretends to be human and schedules stuff for you.)
