I keep seeing posts saying iPad is dead, yet Apple sold $30 billion worth of them last year and almost $7 billion worth in the first quarter of 2026. Not bad for a dead platform.

I wish Apple News could do for news source subscriptions what Apple TV has done for streaming subscriptions: a one-stop shop for subscribing to and paying for whatever news source I wanted, with cancellation one tap away.

The fact that Anthropic was careless enough to let something they themselves consider dangerous be accessed by an unauthorized user through the simplest of hacking techniques (changing the URL) is inexcusable. That's amateur hour stuff. Security 101. I'd have been fired for letting that happen.

This is the dumbest thing that Siri does on my Apple Watch and I hope it gets fixed someday. I’m not trying to write an email, I’m just telling my wife that I dropped off some PHYSICAL mail. 🙃
(And believe me, I have tried all kinds of permutations in an attempt to get Siri to understand what I’m telling it, to no avail. But I really shouldn’t have to do that, ya know?)

I guess we’re in the Apple news doldrums, nothing much to talk about.

RE: @daringfireball@mastodon.social
The new Netflix Apple TV app is definitely a step back in usability. It’s like I’m constantly stubbing my toe whenever it fails to work like it should.

@caseyliss@mastodon.social “Out here, people struggled to get by with the most basic technologies; a ship would bring you work, a gun would help you keep it. A captain's goal was simple: find a crew, find a job, keep flying.”
Loved this patch note:
