I picked up a Rest Duvet Evercool after being intrigued by an ad I saw for it on Instagram. I classically sleep warm or hot. Regular comforters leave me waking up sometimes in sweats. I have mostly learned to endure the warm season, but the Rest Duvet has been a big improvement.

Algorithmic recommendations now do the work of discovering and pursuing interests, finding community and learning about the world. Kids today are, simply put, not learning how to be curious, critical adults — and they don’t seem to know what they’ve lost.

Yesterday like millions of people I made an account on Threads. Meta cunningly developed a simpler alternative to twitter, leveraging the hipper Instagram brand. Despite concerns about privacy and the eye popping large amount of data it collects, Threads seems to have won the hearts of the public. It managed to take Mastodon’s rapid ascent and grind it to a halt.

With a Prime deal I picked up Amazon’s Eero 6+ and set it up. The unit looked slick and was easy to configure using the iPhone app. However performance was not much different nor improved than my existing Netgear R7000P. Testing showed that using a single Eero 6+ unit was slightly worse than the Netgear.
