In my family, relatives are purchasing Macs in bulk: three Mac mini computers and one MacBook Pro. I’m quite perplexed about the reasons behind this sudden surge in Mac purchases. 🤯
I am not the biggest fan of meta blog posts, also called blogging about blogging. I do think they’re sometimes useful but they’re also quite uninspiring for me to read. And that’s why I try to stay away from the topic for the most part.
I find this statement surprising coming from the author behind the popular “People & Blog” series. Maybe I’m missing something here.
It’s the time of the year where I feel the best action is “mark all as read”… 🫤
A strange image of Steve walking in an open space area (probably in One Infinite Loop). The visual mood of this image triggers other possibilities.. like Steve walking in heaven… I think I’m either exhausted or too sensitive.

On iPhone 16 Pro Camera Control
I’ve played a bit with my wife’s iPhone 16 Pro Camera Control. I think it is cool but not practical. It is the best case of feature or functions overloading on a single control. I think it’s hard to compete against discrete on-screen camera controls because these are much quicker to invoke and the error rate is low. I don’t see the Camera Control to live for a long time as I can’t see a single way of improving it and fixing this usability issue.
