Introduction
👋 Hello, my new friend. This is my first NewsLetter, please allow me to first explain the purpose of writing this series of newsletters. I am a person who is very curious about new things. I am happy to learn new knowledge and explore new tools, etc. As a hamster-like person, I have collected too much information and tools, but these things are lying in my bookmarks folder. Although I can use them, I feel that most of this information is dormant. So, I plan to summarize and share the technology news, exquisite articles, and interesting products I have seen in the form of a weekly newsletter. The main areas are personal management, user experience design, technology, development, the internet, and life-related topics. I hope it can be helpful to everyone.
As they say, "Read it later means never read it again," so this is also a reminder for myself to digest these things.
There is another reason. I previously planned to share these things on Xiaohongshu (a social media platform), but my two accounts on Xiaohongshu were blocked. I recorded the first account, and I'm still trying to appeal for the second account. I realized that Xiaohongshu's closed nature is really not suitable for doing these things. Therefore, I plan to no longer engage in those traffic-based activities, but focus on improving my writing skills and truly convey knowledge and information to everyone.
So, the first issue of the weekly newsletter starts now.
Codesign Design and Development
When it was just released, I shared it on my Xiaohongshu account "A lazy person's digital life". It exports corresponding CSS in the form of a browser extension, supporting Tailwind and Uno. You can join the author's Telegram group to get the latest updates.
Some News
360 has released an AI browser
The AI search function can help users ask questions and provide answers. The AI reading assistant can provide users with intelligent summaries and mind maps of articles. The AI video assistant supports online video/local video. The AI video assistant can help you extract subtitles, summarize video highlights, mind maps, etc. Unfortunately, there is no Mac version yet. There should still be a considerable number of people in China who are using the 360 browser, so AI should now become even more popular. Source of information
The Arc browser has updated a bunch of icons.
A netizen shared a method that can directly use the lock icon and bypass the invitation requirement by executing "defaults write company.thebrowser.Browser currentAppIconName -string flutedGlass" in the terminal. The parameter after "-string" is the icon name in camel case format. In addition to this method, you can directly search for Arc icons uploaded by netizens on this website. Find the one you like and copy it directly into Arc's detailed information to replace it.
