Just got an upgrade prompt for Reeder 4. What an app, it’s my favourite RSS reader. Much improved and I love how I can unsubscribe now and reorganise my feeds. Everyone make sure your feeds aren’t breaking! https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/reeder-4/id1449412357

When business talks about accessibility, they talk about a legal issue. Developers talk about accessibility as a usability issue. This hurts users! Please raise it as universal usability.

Can’t believe the #macOs firewall is still off by default in 2019!

Outlanders is a fun game but it reminds me that I like the free form mode of settlers best.

NPM global installation permission issues on macOS
I had trouble installing global npm packages, which failed due to permission errors. I don't want to use sudo as this will lead to problems later, and I don't want to set the global installation directory to a local directory, as that means other users don't have access to the packages.
As recommended by the NodeJS documentation this is best fixed by installing node via a version manager.
First, remove node which I incorrectly installed with homebrew:
brew uninstall nodeThen install nvm as per the official instructions. In my case this also failed as this is a new system that doesn't have a
.bash_profileyet. Hower as I wanted to install the zsh shell, I installed oh-my-zsh as per the instructions on their site.Once zsh was installed (or you've created a
.bash_profileusingtouch ~/.bash_profile, you can install node in a correct manner as follows:nvm install nodeHappy yak-shaving!

I understand why macOS Safari wants to sandbox browser extensions but please add a search option for safari extension instead of a 30 page list… @instapaper do you have a safari extension?
