It looks like the ESTA application process is about to get quite a bit more complicated. Check this proposal for changes to the process:
Among the changes, here is what jumps out to me:
CBP is adding social media as a mandatory data element for an ESTA application. The data element will require ESTA applicants to provide their social media from the last 5 years.
[…]
CBP will add several “high value data fields” to the ESTA application, when feasible
Email addresses used in the last ten years;Family number telephone numbers used in the last five years;I’m not sure if those fields will be optional, or if omitting or forgetting some of that data can result in not getting an authorization of entry.
I’m honestly not quite sure how I would provide such data. I use unique email addresses for most services out there. Do they accept wildcards as email addresses? 🙂
In any case, comments are open so I would encourage everyone to send your feedback, maybe that will help make that process clearer.
Written comments and/or suggestions regarding the item(s) contained in this notice must include the OMB Control Number 1651-0111 in the subject line and the agency name. Please submit written comments and/or suggestions in English. Please use the following method to submit comments:
Email: Submit comments to: CBP_PRA@cbp.dhs.gov.It seems pretty clear at this point that the US administration does not want foreigners visiting the country anymore 🙂

I thought about starting a blog as a Fediverse account
The good news is, you’ve already enabled the Fediverse option for your WordPress site so it’s already done for you. All you have to do is blog! Arguably that’s the hardest part 😉

I like the general idea. This is definitely a problem in WordPress today.
I wonder if the solution could be to better surface the command palette? The palette already allows you to quickly find what you’re looking for, without having to look through many menus. It’s also extensible so plugins can hook into and add their own menus.
It does miss 3 things though:
The default view remains cluttered with all the available menus.One needs to know an obscure keyboard shortcut (Cmd+K) to access the palette.It’s not available on mobile.Maybe we could have a better, clutter-free default view of the dashboard, with only the command palette’s main input field. What do you think?

It’s hard to believe but after 14 years, the Stargate franchise is back. It won’t be a reboot, it’s backed by Amazon and folks from the original series (Brad Wright, Joe Mallozzi, Martin Gero) are involved in the project. I probably shouldn’t get too excited, but… It sounds promising?
It’s funny how they’re completely ignoring the Stargate Origins miniseries in their announcement. It looks like everyone agrees it’s better to forget about it. 🙂

“Instead of investing in advertising we invest in product development”
Free Search is a Trap | Kagi’s CEO Vlad on Building a New Internet
This resonates with me a lot. I’m a happy user of @kagihq, and it was good to hear its founder address some of the questions I’ve been asking myself about its future and its vision. Great interview @ente!

Take-home assignments are dead, “one prompt away” is one prompt too far, and what we should do next
AI isn’t eliminating some boring, mechanical part of learning. It’s replacing the very core.

IA: La mort programmée du flow
En obligeant notre cerveau à basculer en permanence d’une tâche à l’autre, on l’épuise considérablement.
[…]
L’IA nous force à osciller constamment entre, d’une part, l’hyper-vigilance requise pour la formulation des prompts et la vérification critique, et, d’autre part, l’hypo-vigilance, cet ennui intense induit par la lecture passive de la prose sans âme et sans intention générée par la machine.
L’IA me fait gagner 5 heures par semaine… Mais pourquoi suis-je aussi épuisé? — @babeleur

Thumbs Up 👍
Clear and effective human communication is one of the hardest things to get right. The widespread adoption of emojis only made the problem worse. Instead of adding context, by, you know, using words, like these, emojis manage to strip even more context, sometimes paradoxically by adding layers of confusion.
