Instagram’s algorithm only shows me posts that it thinks are most important to me, but it’s wrong and it has ruined my experience. I want the old chronological feed back.

A while back, I noticed that people on Instagram that I follow didn’t seem to be posting anymore. Celebrities that I like to look at pictures of just disappeared from my feed. People I follow to see cool photos of my favorite places just weren’t posting anymore. Or so I thought.

It turns out it was a new algorithm set in place by Instagram. This algorithm tries to predict which feeds are most important to you based on such things as how often you like a user’s photos, whether you comment on a photo, if you share a post with others, and if you search directly for a particular user or company. Supposedly, this helps fill up the top of your feed with content that is most relevant to you.

Guess what. It doesn’t.

New York and New Jersey’s Citi Bike program now supports using Apple Pay to rent bikes.

Whether you’re speeding down a highway or navigating through New York City with a Citi Bike, Apple Pay can help you. Here are the latest transit programs that support Apple’s NFC payment service.

I love to ride my (rented) bicycle

New York and New Jersey’s Citi Bike now support Apple Pay inside the app’s 6.0 update. Users have always been able to find bikes in their area with the app, but now they’ll be able to directly pay for a Day Pass inside the app with Apple Pay. It’s a smart route for implementing the NFC service by the bike-sharing company, as it avoids having to replace any bike stations with NFC terminals — instead relying on the app to provide you with valid bike codes. Good show, Citi Bike.

Alexa will be able to communicate with Cortana, and vice versa.

Amazon and Microsoft are teaming up to integrate their digital assistants. You’ll soon be able to talk to Cortana by saying, ”Alexa, open Cortana” from an Alexa-powered device like the Echo, and vice versa.

The integration opens up new functionality for both digital assistants, giving customers the ability to access the unique capabilities of each platform. Cortana is deeply integrated with the Office suite, and Alexa users will soon be able to access that information — which includes booking a meeting, viewing upcoming calendar events, reading work emails, setting reminders, and more.

Microsoft is set to launch Cortana-enabled speakers later this year, and teaming up with Amazon gives Cortana the ability to leverage Alexa’s vast trove of skills, including the ability to control smart home products and ordering items on Amazon.com. From Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella:

Ensuring Cortana is available for our cus…

Is your Apple Watch being fussy? Here are a few ways to make it behave.

Whether it’s an app on your Apple Watch or the Watch itself that’s giving you some trouble, you don’t have to panic: There are a few simple fixes you can employ to get your smartwatch back on the operational path in no time.
