I know it’s totally irrational, but I have this crazy superstition that Friday the 13th is a normal day and bad things are no more or less likely to happen than on any other day. Weird, I know.

I had a chance to see Apple's new "Sky Blue" MacBook Air in person today. In other words, I've still never seen a blue MacBook.

If I'm making a pan of brownies, how much dog shit in batter is too much? That's what people taking about "reaching across the aisle" are asking. The compromise position with fascism is still fascism.

When you say "disturbing," do you mean disturbing like 'Silence of the Lambs,' or like, REALLY disturbing? Like grownups with strong feelings about recasting the voice actors in 'Paw Patrol' disturbing?

I don't love the name "Liquid Glass," and the lock screen time looks silly when stretched. Other than that, though, I really like what we see of the new design language so far. #WWDC #Apple

This isn't a prediction so much as an observation: Apple could totally talk about either a future rev of the Mac Pro or future VisionOS hardware without fear of the Osborne Effect, because you can't cannibalize sales of products no one buys. #WWDC #Apple

One of the few things in modern commerce that makes me crankier than people trying to cut in line is people who can't be bothered to be in the line in the first place. Form a line. Don't just hover nearby. Don't wander. If you aren't stationary, waiting to check out, you can't be cut in front of.

Two years ago, I live-posted the WWDC keynote on Mastodon. I was excited to see what the Vision Pro would be. Last year I sat it out. I had a scheduling conflict and the focus was going to be on AI, about which I couldn't imagine anything that exciting being shown. This year? 🤷‍♂️ #WWDC #Apple

If you are reading this in 2025 and you live long enough to be offered the opportunity to "upload" you consciousness to a computer, understand that the actual offer is that they will kill you and create a very rough, and undoubtedly not conscious, simulation of an approximate idea of what you were.
