Another fucking war. It's a failure of imagination to believe we can't do better than this.

Someday, sooner than you might imagine, there will be a world without kings. America has been living in that world for almost 250 years. We’re not starting today #NoKings

I have been lucky enough to attend many WWDCs. This one will be especially memorable. Thank you all. Closing thought: I believe, strongly, that we have an obligation to use whatever power we might have to try to make the world better. The more power, the greater the responsibility.

The judges, lawyers, and clerks of this country moving quickly in response to Trump’s haphazard lawbreaking are one of the things keeping America America. I wish I could buy them all cookies.

Just deployed a lil' first draft accessibility page for LOSER. Seemed like an easy win, especially since Apple is letting us link to pages like this in our App Store listings now. Really having a blast working on a11y features 🥰 #WWDC25 ninolindo.dev/accessibilit...

I have two interests dominating my psyche right now: 1. writing good, non-predatory software for people of all walks of life 2. resisting authoritarianism in my country 1 is less important than 2 but I won’t survive the stress of 2 without the comfort & purpose of 1.

Military parades are about honoring those who have served, not praising a president who only thinks about himself. Donald Trump doesn’t deserve a parade, but let me tell you about the kind of person who does.

The reason @hankgreen.bsky.social is an all-time great is because he does an amazing job articulating emotion and logic all at once. I've been so angry during all of this and haven't really had the words to explain exactly why. He does. youtu.be/9ChIo3Ubdbo?...

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Just to be clear: peaceful protest is as American as it gets. But when insurrectionists were beating cops in his name, Trump never deployed the National Guard. That tells you everything.

My non-exhaustive, unordered #WWDC25 wishlist: • SwiftUI versions of GK APIs E.g. GKGameCenterViewController • Better SwiftData predicates E.g. filtering by enum value • More stable Xcode previews • Navigation title & button font customization in SwiftUI • Access to alternate app icon assets in UI

Cold Take: my beef with LLMs (minus ethical/environmental concerns) is their overuse. AI is an incredible new arrow in our quiver but the hype cycle has us trying to use it for everything, often when it doesn’t make sense. This isn’t a novel sentiment at all but woo baby it exhausts me.

Evidence You Might Be In A Cult You follow one charismatic Leader. In your Leader’s mind, your Leader can do no wrong. In your mind, your Leader can do no wrong. Your Leader demonizes dissidents & outsiders. Loyalty's the ultimate measure of your devotion. You don't know you're in a Cult

The American curse is that the way people gauge competence is by assuming “if this guy is rich then they must be competent”. Of course rich people do this too, because it implies that by proxy, they themselves must be competent.

Not that anybody asked, but if Elon Musk’s wealth as of today ($330B) were entirely hundred-dollar bills, then laid end-to-end, they'd circle Earth three times, and with what’s left over, if taped end-to-end, would make a ribbon long enough to ascend into space and reach the Moon. Just sayin'.

Mehmet Oz is the OG Wellness grifter. Senators confirmed him to head Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. His career prioritized personal gain over public health and he will do the same to CMS and its beneficiaries. Read what I wrote in November: news.immunologic.org/p/mehmet-oz-...

And this is why the founding fathers envisioned having a Congress that actually did something, rather than deferring every decision to the president.

Trump said he may run for a third term. I’m not joking. I know this because he said he is “NOT joking.” Can someone explain to me how this isn’t a violation of the oath he took to the Constitution? I’m waiting.

The thing we learned from Web2 is that the most impactful businesses became the most impactful by optimizing for addiction. Which means we should all ask, how would you optimize generative AI for addiction? Whatever makes it the most addictive is probably what it will become.
