Elon Musk, in a tweet responding to Google’s announcement of their deal to provide Gemini to Apple for use in Apple Intelligence:

This seems like an unreasonable concentration of power for Google, given that the also have Android and Chrome

I’m sure that if Grok were as popular as Gemini, Musk would turn down a deal with Apple to avoid concentrating “power” in his hands.

Here’s an illustrated follow-up regarding the absurdity of MacOS 26’s “looks like they’re rounded off like a child’s toy but actually they’re still rectangles with corners” windows. If you turn on always-visible scroll bars (which you should) and scroll to the bottom, they look like this:

(That’s Safari, which I think is a somewhat popular app.)

It would make more sense if we found out that the team behind redesigning the UI for MacOS 26 Tahoe was hired by Meta a year ago and deliberately sabotaged their work to make the Mac look clownish and amateur.

Ruliology is taking off! And more and more people are talking about it. But what is ruliology? Since I invented the term, I decided I should write something to explain it. But then I realized: I actually already wrote something back in 2021 when I first invented the term. What I wrote back then was […]

The state of Minnesota, along with the Twin Cities, have sued the US government and several officials to halt the flood of agents carrying out an Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation.

My new (old) Pebble Time arrived. Truly the most playful OS ever on a wearable. Still so, so, so good. My unit’s also a kickstarter edition!

Eddy Cue, in a rare bylined post on Apple Newsroom: The numbers reflect the incredible enthusiasm of our customers, whether it’s downloading an exciting new app or game, watching the hottest new show with family and friends, listening to their favorite songs, or shopping...

When we last caught up with No. 12 LSU and declared them schedule merchants in for a rude awakening, the Tigers were reeling from an 0-2 start to SEC play and looking ahead to a game against undefeated No. 2 Texas, an even tougher opponent than the Kentucky and Vanderbi...

The testimony also calls into question whether Ross failed to follow his training during the incident in which he reportedly shot and killed Minnesota citizen Renee Good.

The first few years of generative AI in software development felt like a series of increasingly impressive magic tricks. We

Last week, we talked about one huge question, “How the hell are you supposed to have a career in tech in 2026?” That’s pretty specific to this current moment, but there are some timeless, more perennial questions I've been sharing with friends for years that I wanted to give...

The turmoil started in late December, when some Tehran merchants closed up shop to protest the free fall of Iran’s currency.  That initial outcry sparked a wave of protests across the country. Demonstrators demanded not just economic reform, but a total overhaul of Iran...

Southwest is still my preferred airline but the new changes do hurt the experience. Paying for checked bags encourages people to stuff more bags overhead where they don’t fit. Paying for assigned seats ruins the checkout flow with upsells.

OpenAI acquires health startup Torch:

We started Torch to build a medical memory for AI, unifying scattered records into a context engine that helps you see the full picture, connect the dots, and make sure nothing important gets lost in the noise again.

This is pretty much exactly what I was blogging about last week.

If you ship AI applications, you have probably noticed that the questions are changing. Enterprise security questionnaires now include AI-specific

Anthropic has bundled Claude Code features into a more user-friendly interface called Cowork. Looks good. Requires a Max subscription (💰) for now so I can’t try it.

Pretty good name, though not as good as Copilot and Codex. Still, I like where Anthropic is going with this.

I very much want Anthropic to set up a scrappy team for a side project to build a do-it-yourself operating system based entirely around Claude Code and Cowork. claude.com/blog/cowo…

I'm working on a feature for WordLand II where you can flip a switch to see the OG Metadata for a post you're reading, by clicking on an icon that looks like the flag on the side of an old fashioned mailbox. I remembered there was a desk accessory on the original Mac that us...

On Sunday, U.S. Figure Skating announced its Olympic roster, which adhered, as is natural, to the top three performers at its national championships. The men's event saw the most upheaval from the anticipated roster, but not in a way that was particularly interesting for Oly...
