With Siri AI, many iPhone users will no longer have a need to pay for ChatGPT.

The gym was once a daily routine for me. Then I moved around the world, got married, and became very busy building my online businesses to the next level. Not since 2021 have I been to a gym, until today.

Today's revelation of Revolut failing to keep your private information safe from the wrong hands, bolsters what I believe to be true: Traditional banks with physical branches are the safest institutions to safeguard your money and wealth. Digital banks are still humanless risks.

Good timing to ask this question, as @automattic.com has put @wordpress.org founder @ma.tt on a paid leave of absence: www.404media.co/wordpress-au... And to answer my own question: No, I haven't. Been using WordPress since 2009, with great success, with no plans to stop.

Automattic CEO Matt Mullenweg Put on 'Leave of Absence'

Mullenweg, co-founder of WordPress, wrote in a company-wide Slack messages on Wednesday, viewed by 404 Media, that board members "conspired" behind his back to vote to put him on leave.

I give Codex the choice of using Chrome DevTools MCP or the Safari MCP server, and lately it's choosing Safari more often than Chrome. That's interesting.

Have you vibe coded yourself away from WordPress yet?

I'm hitting Codex usage limits very quickly on my ChatGPT Pro 20x plan. What's the experience like with Claude Code on the Max plan?

I have 11 years of Apple Music Replays.

I’m on a generational run with Codex. There’s never been a better time to code than right now.

I really need Containers. It would be nice if @vivaldi.com Workspaces could act as such.

Marcus Anthony @marcusanthony.com · 01/09/2026

The @vivaldi.com browser shows me how late I went to bed, and how little sleep I got today. No, I was not doomscrolling. I was working overtime on a web app project!

Do you listen to music or podcasts while vibe coding?

It’s deep work in the early mornings that makes the biggest difference in your project’s progress.

I just finished a 20-hour, 7-minute fast. I do these almost daily, for a minimum of 16 hours.

I replaced my 2019 Intel MacBook Pro with the 2025 M4 MacBook Air last year. It’s a beautiful piece of hardware.

I dusted off my 2019 MacBook Pro. Will prep it soon for installing Omarchy.

I highly recommend reading Rework to anyone considering launching a digital startup. I’ve read it twice. Great book!

This is a short clip I recorded in November 2018 with my iPhone XS Max at the time, at Alouette Lake, when I was living in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada. I visited this beautiful location often to manifest the future I am living today.

Linux is buzzing right now, partly because of Omarchy by DHH, and partly because many PC users are tired of Windows. Been there, done that—I left Windows for Macintosh in 2008. I still like the Mac, but I’m curious… if not Omarchy, which distro do most Linux users recommend?

Marcus Anthony @marcusanthony.com · 18/08/2026

Since 2008, the default web browser on my Macintosh computers has been Safari.

Due to watermarking, I’ve cancelled my Claude Max subscription, which I was using for Claude Code in VS Code. Should I switch to ChatGPT’s Codex, or is there something better?

I use the iPhone 16 Pro Max, and increasingly think my next smartphone will be a foldable. It looks like the form factor that will finally let me code on the go. The Samsung Z Fold 8 and Oppo Find N6 are both pulling me in that direction. Let’s see what Apple offers next month.

We use four web analytics tools across our @solespire.com sites. Each gets something right, yet each is needed to fully understand different data points. That’s problematic. Google Analytics is the worst of all. It does a lot, but somehow makes everything harder than it needs to be.

These never stopped being great. Apple EarPods play Apple Music in true lossless quality, through the 3.5mm headphone jack, while AirPods, via Bluetooth, do not. That’s a plus, but the bigger positive is that on my iMac I can now keep Bluetooth turned off.

Just when I was going to focus on building Telegram channels, the app gets yanked from the App Store.

People often ask us how @thepinnaclelist.com became such a powerful platform in luxury real estate. The answer is simple. We never stopped. Since 23 April 2011, we have worked on it every day. No days off. No pauses. We publish, improve, and keep moving.

I recently read Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind by Shunryu Suzuki on a flight across the world. Beginner’s mind is not a lack of knowledge. It is the ability to learn without allowing what we already know to close what remains possible.

François Nars’ Motu Tane is private island living at its most extraordinary. @thepinnaclelist.com presented the estate, with Bob Hurwitz and me on location in Bora Bora, French Polynesia.

My relationship with social media began in the era of MSN chat rooms and MySpace, long before today's platforms. I joined Twitter in 2008, and it became my primary social home. Over the years, I posted thousands of tweets.

First post on Bluesky, from West Vancouver in beautiful British Columbia, Canada, my home country, with a palm tree behind me and a clear blue sky overhead. A fitting place to begin.
