Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 22/06/2026The nice part is you can keep going step by step and ask follow-up questions at any point, even by adding more photos, like I’ve done below. Also, the AI somehow spotted my cat in the photo, which was pretty funny. 010
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 22/06/2026A really useful AI task I use: take a photo of hard-to-read or badly worded instructions, then ask the model to turn them into simple step-by-step directions. It’s especially helpful when the text is tiny or unclear — and when your eyesight isn’t quite as good as it used to be 😑 100
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 11/06/2026Installed the #iOS27 beta asap and tested the new Liquid Glass tinting. Lock screen notifications are so much more readable. More please from the Apple team. 010
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 06/05/2026Feels so cool to have added something to an app that I use everyday! github.com/steipete/Cod... 110
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 23/03/2026🤯 Just discovered that it's Crt+V to paste images into Claude/Copilot CLI. How long have I been dragging screenshots into the terminal because Cmd+V didn't work? 000
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 17/01/2026@economist.com is it true that the estimated delivery for your newspaper is between Sat and Tues? My subscription is only valuable if I can read the newspaper over the weekend. 000

Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 01/10/2025Unsurprisingly, various AI detection tools confidently suggest that the majority of text is generated. Results from decopy.ai/ai-detector/ app.gptzero.me 000
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 25/09/2025Compare the Lock screen to the Home or App Library screen. The apps and their icons _are_ the content. Here they are vibrant, bold and immediately usable. I suspect in a few releases time, the notifications will revert to solid backgrounds. 🙏 100
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 25/09/2025"Liquid Glass [..] a new way while letting content shine through underneath it." Generally I like LG on iOS26, but it makes the lock screen ugly and unusable. The notifications _are_ the content, yet LG makes them look dark, bland and, worst of all, unreadable. #liquidGlass #iOS26 100
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 13/06/2025Never thought I see “pavement pizza” in a serious newspaper @economist.com. Not sure how I feel about it 😂 🤢 economist.com/china/2025/0... 000
Alasdair McCall @alasdair.md · 21/12/2024My favourite part of the season is slowly consuming the Christmas Double Issue of the @economist.com 000
