Brave Search No Longer Using Bing

https://mjtsai.com/blog/2023/05/01/brave-search-no-longer-using-bing/

> Their own index, based on Tailcat, is working better than DuckDuckGo/Bing for me now. Hopefully, Apple will add built-in support to Safari. Worth testing out, even if Brave isn't going to be my primary browser...

Google Cloud Vision API enters open beta

https://cloudplatform.googleblog.com/2016/02/Google-Cloud-Vision-API-enters-beta-open-to-all-to-try.html

The new Cloud Vision API from Google can analyze images and detect objects, read text, and identify logos. When combined with an Arduino, it allows robots to identify real life objects by imaging them and querying the service. It's pretty amazing.

Sheetsu

https://sheetsu.com/

Sheetsu adds an API layer to Google Spreadsheet. I've been doing this the hard way for a long time, as Google Docs is what drives [iTextEditors](http://brettterpstra.com/ios-text-editors/). Looking forward to exploring the possibilities here.
