we have a rare window of availability at @codetv.dev, so if you're looking to make something special that helps your company connect with devs, now is a very good time to get in touch. I love working with teams that have the courage to experiment & take big swings — if that's you, get into my inbox!

I stumbled across the Kickstarter for the Tiiny AI Pocket Lab. It looks intriguing but I’m skeptical of the price. Considering how expensive everything has gotten it looks to be incredible value. It’ll be interesting to see how they get on.

✨ I just published a new blog post! It’s a deep dive into a subtle UI detail from my blog. I suspect most people don’t even notice it, but I regularly hear from the folks who *do* notice it and want to know how on earth I’m doing it. Feels a bit like I’m a magician revealing their trick. 😂

Both John Gruber and Jason Kottke both wrote about Sam Henri Gold’s fantastic review of the MacBook Neo. It evokes the feeling of hopeful exploration where people fell in love with the potential of computing in the past and a new generation finding their own way in the future.

It’s good to see that @ifixit.com has said that Apple has improved the repairability of the MacBook Neo. It’s not perfect but it is a step in the right direction. www.ifixit.com/News/116152/...

MacBook Neo Is the Most Repairable MacBook in 14 Years

Is Apple’s most affordable laptop ever also one of its most repairable? We’re loving the screwed-in battery.
