The front wing is a new package, described by the team as featuring “locally increased cambers to extract more load”. It’s difficult to pick up those subtle profile changes, but what is very clear is that Red Bull has moved the two slot gap separators that I have highlighted with … | Continue reading
I understand the impulse. Exercise sucks. Who doesn’t want a pat on the head for doing the Hard Thing? Trust me. I’ve turned heads in public for letting out a string of expletives whenever a smartwatch fails to correctly log a five-mile test run. Are you kidding me, I have to do … | Continue reading

The new approach to window management looks excellent. The (predicted) ability to be able to record podcast interviews on it looks like it could really free me up to record from remote locations. iPadOS excitement – MacPsych dot blog Look, that windows can exist without getting k … | Continue reading
“He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.” – Friedrich Nietzsche There are so many things that I wish I’d learned sooner in my life. During the quarter life crises – the stage where you move from the gumption of teenage to the first hit of life as an adult – […] | Continue reading

But quickly, I remembered why I fell in love with writing in the first place. Each session pushed my mental boundaries, challenged my assumptions, and reignited my creativity. Because at the end of the day, writing isn’t just about publishing, it’s about sharpening the mind and c … | Continue reading
when sending during work blackout hours, set an option to default to “send later at work start time” I’m a believer that the recipient should always manage their notifications. however, I also think it’s good hygiene for folks to practice, esp in high power distance situations. | Continue reading
The vast majority of Asahi Group’s 30 factories in Japan have not operated since Monday after the attack disabled its ordering and delivery system, the company said.

Theo Browne noticed that you can set a text prompt in your “Cameo preferences” to influence your appearance, but this text appears to be concatenated into the overall video prompt, which means you can use it to subvert the prompts of anyone who selects your cameo to use in their … | Continue reading
Simon Willison, an independent ai researcher who sits on the board of the Python software foundation, nicknames the combination of outside-content exposure, private-data access and outside-world communication the “lethal trifecta”.

In all the things that I don’t like about Liquid Glass, I forget to celebrate the things that make Apple great – continuous improvements to core features that make the Mac great. Terminal is my favorite terminal emulator app. I know there are better terminal apps out there in the … | Continue reading
That, however, is often an error. People no more want to chat with every device in their life than they want to have dinner with their Kitchenaid dishwasher. They just want those things to do what they were bought to do, and chat, too often, gets in the way. Consumers are increas … | Continue reading
But what about the broader consumer market? When laypeople can’t meaningfully evaluate model quality, they default to what feels best, creating dangerous incentives for labs to optimize for subjective satisfaction rather than genuine capability. This mirrors how we evaluate other … | Continue reading
Looks like I am not the only person who’s in denial that the time for the mickey mouse gloves are truly over. =( Meanwhile, I do think that the new default pointer for Tahoe is better than the previous default. | Continue reading
We’re in uncharted territory. These tools are less than three years old, and nobody knows what happens when someone uses the same AI assistant for a decade. How much should it remember? How should it handle years of accumulated context? Meanwhile, we’re seeing a Cambrian explosio … | Continue reading

All of this makes me think that Apple is close to introducing devices where the screen disappears seamlessly into the physical edge. Something where flexible OLED blurs the distinction between pixels and bezel. A new “wraparound” screen with safe area insets on the vertical edges … | Continue reading

I’ve heard this line of argument before. I think Jim’s more self aware than most that there’s a false equivalence here. Let me do my best to enunciate it for my own sake: Adding more context is the mental equivalent of learning more about a problem space. When one learns more abo … | Continue reading
This was a great read especially related to product management. First off, I am shocked that we now have a product management course (this also makes me feel old). There is a reason why I chose to post it. I’ve always wondered how educators will navigate the balance of LLMs when … | Continue reading
Motion is critical for how a product feels. It guides attention, reinforces brand personality, and can make an interface feel more responsive. Motion has been a core part of my design process, going way back to the days when Principle was king. Here’s my general framework that I’ … | Continue reading
Today, AI is the voice in the drive-thru that can’t hear our orders. It’s killing the livelihood of creative workers. It’s the thing you have to do at work, whether you like it or not. It’s making search engines unusable. It’s a justification for corporate layoffs. It’s plagiaris … | Continue reading
I empathize with the desire behind all of this. At times I feel overwhelmed by the immensity of the forces of both nature and culture. Huge systems which we can not fully comprehend and for which any one human is insignificant. Even someone as brilliant as Dario Amodei cannot sin … | Continue reading
3. The O-Ring models makes AI hard to work with. The O-Ring model stipulates that, in some settings, it is the worst performer who sets the overall level of productivity. (In the NBA, for instance, it may be the quality of the worst defender on the floor, since the player your … | Continue reading
And now consider a modern Bangalore tech campus. The cafeteria sprawls across 20,000 square feet, seven live counters, three different bread stations. The Jain counter serves pav bhaji without onions — an impossibility made possible. The Bengali station has begun serving “Vegan M … | Continue reading
I love rss. Until Aug 17, 2025, I used netnewswire with icloud syncing to read all the rss feeds that I’ve been collecting and curating since 2002. On Aug 17, 2025, I decided to try self hosting my rss feed parser using miniflux. It’s a neat little open source, fully free service … | Continue reading

This should be great news for consumers — particularly if these kinds of regulations are offered beyond the current three regions (EU, UK, and now Japan).

It also would help it raise a bigger funding round itself, boosting its own valuation: > “Perplexity’s offer is significantly more than its own valuation, which is estimated at $18 billion.

We believe that means that we should update how we talk about (and measure) success when using these tools, and we should expect that after the initial efficiency gains our focus will be on raising the ceiling of the work and outcomes we can accomplish, which is a very different … | Continue reading
It really shows the power of the terminal and the commandline It’s gotten me wondering if I can combine %! along with llm to see if I can make llm calls from vim. Of course you can. This is going to make my setup quite portable. | Continue reading
When you layer the translucent effect with a color, you still get a glassy look but the text and iconography atop them are more legible.

So what should you do when an AI model makes a big mistake? I recommend correcting it as matter-of-factly as possible and trying to briskly move on. If you haven’t yet built up a lot of context in the conversation, it might be worth starting over entirely. The best approach – onl … | Continue reading
LLMs collapse the product loop Two weeks, two side projects, two very different partners: one deep in code, the other steeped in business ops. Building with both made something obvious: large language models aren’t just engineering accelerants. They collapse the entire product lo … | Continue reading
I watched a video recently, that had text fading away. I thought it’d be cool to recreate that type of effect in CSS! Making a faded text effect in (mostly) CSS I wanted to take a quick stab at my own LLM chat interface, see how far I could get and how many little details […] | Continue reading
