I’m not even that old, but I’d really love to argue to simplify the entire auto infotainment stack. I don’t even need a screen. I just bring my own by magnetically attaching my phone that I’ll use to navigate and Bluetooth music or podcasts. If CarPlay becomes the standard that allows me to not pay for whatever crappy tablet UI automakers are pushing, fine. But that doesn’t make CarPlay a necessity, it just makes it the least bad option.

My 8 year old completes treatment for B-ALL in a couple months. It has been a crazy 2.5 years but he’s almost through it. It’s so surprising how it all feels so routine for the care team and how prepared they are during the times that something could go wrong. When it does go wrong, you really appreciate the swarm when the entire clinic circles up to lend a hand.

AirPlay is a killer feature for me and I love the AppleTVs I have. However, for kids TVs or the TVs that I don't use often, I just get an AirPlay capable 4k Roku stick. They're small, simple and work great as AirPlay receivers.

I loved my AVP and the guest mode addition is the headlining feature here IMO.

I ultimately returned mine because, as cool as it was, the isolation and neck pain weren’t worth it. It’s an awesome way to watch a movie (alone) or use to extend your laptop but ultimately it’s just you in there. I’d never wear this around people and my son was creeped out by it and asked me to take it off. It’s difficult to use for more than an hour which would interrupt my workflow if I was wearing it while working on my laptop.

I hope they continue iterating because I’d love to try again if they can cut the bulk. The guest mode addition would’ve been nice to have even though I probably wouldn’t let my kids try it because it’s too expensive.

I can’t say less about apple intelligence…

I have super fond memories of high school math classes. That calculator was my first introduction to programming. I’d take the time to write programs for each unit we covered so that I could just input the variables and quickly solve. I had to understand the concept before I could program it so I didn’t really think it was cheating. I did get nervous when SATs came up because I knew my calcs memory would be cleared. I remember my solution was to painstakingly recreate the memory cleared screen and pulled it up before the proctor came around in hopes that they’d assume they already cleared mine.

My programming didn’t improve much after high school but I’m still kind of proud of my not-totally-cheating cheating.

I'm confused as to how this issue is so widespread in the first place. I'm unfamiliar with how Crowdstrike works, do organizations really have no control over when these updates occur? Why can't these airlines just apply the updates in dev first? Is it the organizations fault or does Crowdstrike just deliver updates like this and there's no control? If that's just how they do it, how do they get away with this?

They just announced this:

Record and transcribe a live call directly from the Phone app.21 You can also search call history more easily, dial smarter, and switch SIM cards seamlessly.

I'm a really big fan of the C1. I'm curious what the image quality is like compared to the current webcam on the M2 Air and compared to the C1. The mute switch on the cable is a great idea.

It does however pair very nicely with popular console controllers

Setting aside the implications of the move Red Hat made for a moment, can we all just appreciate what a perfect storm of terrible messaging they've settled into with this one? From what it sounds like, the announcement surprised a lot internal associates not working on RHEL that are now falling into this trap that Red Hat created.

Am I supposed to hate this? Because I really really don't.
