This was the best connector on the market. Only two devices still need this: my second gen AirPods Pro and my first-gen AirPods Max. I don’t see when I’m going to upgrade those.

The iPhone 17 Air looks wonderful – but that’s not why Apple is making it
That is my theory too: Apple will make the iPhone 17 Air because it is a mandatory step to the foldable iPhone.

I’m excited about the next two days as I will be traveling by train from Montreal to Quebec City. I enjoy train travel between those two cities because it’s relaxing, the scenery is usually beautiful, and the weather should be nice. I appreciate the opportunity to embrace modern technology; I’ll be able to work remotely from my laptop, with my iPhone’s 5G connection to stay productive while on the move.

How is it possible that the « new » Meta AI app already got reviews many of not most of them dating back to three years ago? What am I missing here? Not that I want to try it, mind you. 🤔

Yesterday during Canada’s election night, Radio-Canada (French channel) had the best interactive board I’ve ever seen, albeit a bit laggy at times. I don’t know if it was purpose built or if it was based on a commercial solution, but it was impressive. It’s the first time the TV host didn’t struggle with the UI and interaction features. Tap-to-dismiss and a breadcrumb at the bottom made navigation a breeze, apparently. I wish I could have a short video showing it in action.

I don’t know when the trend started, but companies like IBM are starting to use gen AI to automatically offer translated technical documentation from English to… whatever language. I encountered quite a few funny errors today. Thankfully, we can ask for the original at the click of a button. Still work to be gone for this to be on-par with human-made texts.

David Spark on Nano texture displays:
I can’t help but wonder if Apple will eventually bring Nano-texture to the iPhone. Given how often people use their phones in direct sunlight, it could help. Regardless, for those who need a high-end, anti-reflective display, Apple’s Nano-texture glass is the best I’ve seen, and far superior to any screen treatment or film I’ve tried.
If nano texture display ever come to the iPhone, I would buy it in a heartbeat even if I didn’t for my M4 iPad Pro (too expansive).

Simply THE Best
Just spent 10 minutes on Glass, just browsing and glancing at other people’s work, and I was blown away by the quality of photos that you can find there. I discovered many great photographers this morning that will brighten my view of the world. I would argue that Glass is probably THE best and most successful photo-sharing service of all that I experienced in my life. Continue reading →

I don’t care who is managing Apple’s robotic team, but I do have one question: why does Apple need a robotic team in the first place?

My Current Incomplete and Troubled Bucket List

Rent a country house for the whole summer, outside Canada — I would have been in the US, but this plan is on hold, because of Trump’s America. Get my house renovated — Completed! Do another trip with my two sons — TBD. Continue reading →
