@raycast.com is one of the best pieces of software I've ever used, and I rely on it daily. Glaze, their new software that steps into the realm of AI-created macOS desktop applications, looks to be a fascinating product.

This isn't a laptop for someone like me, but it could be a laptop for a lot of other people. I'm glad Apple finally decided to step into this price point!
#MacBookNeo
The new #MacBookNeo launch video is great! I love how tactile it is; very clever videography and effects.
I also think this is an interesting product at a great price point that could do some interesting things in the laptop market.
At the price Apple is charging, not giving customers more screen real estate seems like a crime. π«€
Is there anyone else who's disappointed that #Apple didn't make the move to 30-inch displays with their new releases this week? I have a 27-inch #StudioDisplay and love it, but after using 30"-31 inch monitors for a couple of years now, it really is the sweet spot for a 4K-5K display.

It's the most thoughtful, approachable post about the accelerating impact of #AI I've read this year.
So. Much. Corruption.
I worked with some truly amazing people over the years at AWS. Here's a post thanking them:

It made me chuckle seeing some of these options in the #macOS contacts app. ICQ? Jabber? Time for some updates here methinks. π€£
What does a Type A person like me do on a quiet weekend morning? Get out the label maker and make my life easier because silly USB-C charger product designers thought that "light-grey 4pt font" was helpful to customers. π« #USBchargers
I wasn't sure if #AlienEarth would live up to the hype, but wow, it did. π€―
It felt like an eight hour movie that I didn't want to end. Movie-tier cinematography, set design, and effects. Powerful acting. Truly worth watching if "scary sci-fi" is your jam. Can't wait for season two! π
Thanks for the kind words Dean!
Well, since I made it LinkedIn-official this morning, I might as well make it Bluesky official: sadly, along with 16K others, I've lost my job with Amazon (AWS).

I'd just like to remind folks that we are living in the stupidest of all the timelines. Diseases such as measles, that were all but eradicated in the USA, are coming back because #vaccines did their jobs so well people forgot how serious the disease was and no longer believe in prevention. π€¦ββοΈ π€¦ββοΈ π€¦ββοΈ
A great visualization of the unprecedented #capitalexpenditures big tech is undergoing. This is mind-blowing. π€―

The people of #Minneapolis are courageous and I'm so happy to see them standing up for their rights!

@bsky.app As someone who regularly uses Bluesky and Threads, it's frustrating that Bluesky has such a low character limit. If you could match Threads' limit, it would be so much easier for users who cross-post like me. π

I'm thinking about creating a Board of Vegans and inviting a cannibal to join it. That's how it works right? π€
The #BoardofPeace with Russia on it is a joke, and I hope most rational countries see it for the corrupt grift that it is.
Slava Ukrani! πΊπ¦
If you haven't watched the speech by Canadian Prime Minister #MarkCarney, it's worth watching to understand how seriously the USA's closest ally is taking the continued breaking down of the world order.

It's eerily prescient in how it predicted, 20 years ago, the core crisis the USA (and world) is now facing. Mike Judge must be a time traveller.
It's also a shame it was never released on Bluray. π’
#Idiocracy
If you haven't watched the 2006 movie #Idiocracy, now is a great time to watch a movie that is practically a documentary from the future.

So #TrumpVoters you've had your guy in office for a year now. Is it everything you hoped it would be? Has he made your life better, or just everyone else's lives worse?
The results of the entire Trump 2.0 Presidency are yours to own. You knew what you were voting for. History will not be kind.
Just awful. π’
They're also harassing off-duty police officers. It's gotten completely out of control.
When I saw the new #ClicksCommunicator, it reminded me of this beauty from 2011: the HTC ChaCha (HTC Status). It had a tiny screen (2.6") and was underpowered (limitations of the time) but the feel-in-hand was amazing with a gentle curve.
I'm excited to see this form-factor make a resurgence!
