    Apple Vision Pro Returns https://initialcharge.net/2024/02/gurman-vision-pro-returns/

    Initial Charge https://libertynode.net/@initialcharge/111964363323398274

    I wonder, sometimes, about the Apple Vision Pro ending up in the drawer, just like pre-iPod era MP3 players. Time will tell.

    This looks like a wonderfully designed desk shelf, but I’m not sure I want to jack up my Apple Studio Display. And what if I upgrade my Mac mini to a Mac Studio? It won’t fit.

    I wasn’t invited to share my thoughts on this year’s SixColors Apple performance performance report, So I’m writing my own performance report. 😛

    🔗 On digital relationships – Manu

    Digital relationships are powerful but don’t take my word for it. Try for yourself. Next time you stumble on a personal site you find interesting, try to connect with the person behind that site. Write an email, say hi, send them some love. You won’t regret it.

    Somehow, I found this blog post very touching. I’m still searching for the exact reason, but until I do, I will contact this guy. I don’t know yet what I’m going to say.

    If Ukraine loses the war against Putin’s regime in Moscow, it’s not Ukraine who loses, but the West. Fighting back after an eventual lost war will cost everyone’s ten if not hundred times more. When are we going to get this? Pressure your governments to do more, not less.

    I wrote a little article1 explaining how I’m using Ghost’s API to “browse” published articles so that I can select an article that I want to update.

    It’s the perfect coffee shop kit for me. At first, I didn’t think of going out today, but I realized that I spend all weekdays at home for work. I guess it was time to see the world and enjoy a creative session at the coffee shop while listening to music. Slow vibes1.

    🔗 Blogging Struggles | Darren’s Notes

    I love the design process but never reach a point where I’m happy. I continually change themes, plug-ins, and services.

    Happy to learn that we have something in common. 🙂

    🔗 iOS 18 Rumored to Include ‘Slew of New AI Features’ - MacRumors

    The report claims that Apple is training both Siri and the iPhone’s built-in Spotlight search tool on large language models, with a goal of improving each feature’s ability to answer more complex questions accurately. The revamped version of Spotlight could also offer deeper integration with “specific” functions and features in apps.

    Why am I thinking about the coming of Siri+ when I read this report?

    🔗 My co-worker’s first impressions of the Vision Pro

    Ultimately, he said he’s not going to get one (price), but that it really was a revelatory experience and was unlike anything he’d seen before.

    Someone who finished a demo of the Apple Vision Pro. Is this exactly what many people said when they first tried the Macintosh back in 1984? The rest is history.

    🔗 iPhone 16 Rumored to Feature ‘Significantly’ Upgraded Neural Engine for iOS 18’s Generative AI Features - MacRumors

    A18 series chips are expected to debut in iPhone 16 models in September. It was previously rumored that some generative AI features could be exclusive to iPhone 16 models, and the upgraded Neural Engine could be a reason why.

    My wish is that the pre-iPhone 16 devices can get a reasonably useful generative AI experience under the updated Siri. 🙏🏻

    My uneducated expectations tell me that Apple will announce Apple Vision Pro expanded availability to Canada during their highly expected and anticipated event announcing the iPad Pro refresh.

    One paid subscription cancellation1 and two new free subscriptions2. That is the life of a hobbyist blogger, I guess. 😔


    1. In case you ask, the Craft Bible subscription on Gumroad. ↩︎

    2. In case you ask, a free subscription to my Ghost-hosted website. ↩︎

    I have been tasked to create a short presentation to my colleagues on how to take advantage of ChatGPT in day to day work. That will be a fun one to create. I love those little special projects. 😊👨🏻‍💻
