Photo of Apple's keynote where they show the iPhone Duo held in one hand in its folded and its unfolded form. The right hand would never be able to hold it as shown, so below is an edit of what the hand would have to look like.

No one’s calling it Lake America. “Lake America” is what you name a summer camp for soft children who say, “Don’t you know who my father is?” after a t-ball stand strikes them out

Did DoD just admit in a court filing that it used xAI's Grok Gov Model to hit the girls' school on the first day of the Iran war? Based on some passages flagged by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social in DoD's recent filing in NAACP's case against X, it looks like it did 1/

In an effort to make the Dutch outfits as orange as possible, they have succeeded in making them appear red on the TV. I assume the cameras or TV are saturated. Might as well be watching the Red Devils (Belgium).

I have this AI agent called Beeks that does day-to-day stuff for me. I’ve trained him to book cinema tickets. It goes great…as long as the theater doesn’t have designated seating. If it does, Beeksy has to try to pick seats on a map…

One of the hardest parts of learning Spanish (for me) is that I can read fine… but native speech often sounds like noise. So I built a web app with tiny audio stories + repetition to train listening. Free for now: blablets.com

Tiny stories that make language click. Free listening practice with spaced repetition.

Last year I lost myself a bit when I realized that AI was going to change my job as a programmer completely. I wrote the short story "Assisted" in response. drewmccormack.substack.com/p/assisted

Resubscribed to YouTube Premium. I lasted a month with the free ad-filled experience. Either I had forgotten how horrible it was or it’s gotten worse. At this point, I think I would stop watching content on YouTube if it wasn’t possible to pay to get rid of the ads.

Zuck is such a loser. Literally a PHP developer who totally lucked out when he stole the idea of a client. And since then, I can’t think of a single good thing he has created. Not one.

I've spent the 6 months working on a new approach to shared data in Swift: Forked. Main features: - Git-like branching and merging for Swift structs - Advanced merge algorithms (CRDTs) - Macros to make structs mergeable - Sync structs via CloudKit with <10 LOCs appdecentral.com/2024/12/13/n...

Now we’re all Forked!

Forked is a new Swift framework for working with shared data, on device, and across networks.

Where is the web at? I think we are headed to a future where you have AI for info, and the web for shops. Search is dead. SEO is dead. What is left is pure commerce. And then the question is how they get their money out of AI. Remember how Google started as a simple text field. That is where we are.

Apparently predictive text on iOS and macOS now does maths. Problem is, I have a customer telling me it is giving the wrong answers, and their immediate instinct was to blame our app Agenda. Apple are no doubt using an LLM to do the prediction, which is rubbish at maths as we all know.

The United States has oligarchs now. Not merely rich people with more personal influence on politics than poorer people have, but a few extremely rich people closely connected to the national leader who act in government-like roles despite never being elected or nominated to any official position.
