Very excited that Primary Technology, a show about how tech affects all of our lives, launched today. I'm especially excited to co-host with @stephenrobles, who is really one of the best there is. Apple Podcasts: .Spotify:

Today, after more than 15 years, I was reunited with my literal first Mac ever. It still boots and even runs Final Cut Pro.

Every time I pick up my M4 iPad Pro, I marvel at the tandem OLED screen and then I put it down and go back to my M2 iPad Pro which has something even better: the Smart Folio keyboard - also known as the best iPad accessory ever.

I don’t endorse typing random symptoms into ChatGPT, but of course—that’s exactly what I did. The response was not only surprising… it may have saved my life.

Live activities from @Flighty (top), @Delta (bottom). Let’s just say that no matter how many times you tap, you’re not going to get flight updates. Also, the flight is definitely not on time (as Flighty knows but apparently Delta does not).

LEGO built 10 life-size F1 cars and the drivers took them for a lap at the Miami Grand Prix.

But, the fact that Apple took the most user-hostile approach to its purported compliance says a lot about what the company believes and truly cares about—and it’s not good.

Apple's failure to comply with Judge Gonzales Rodgers's order is bad. The way it thinks about its customers is worse.

As bad as it all is, it turns out there are actually worse things than lying to a judge or willfully disregarding their order. To be clear, those things are very bad, and it’s entirely possible that at least one Apple executive will spend time in jail over exactly that.

This is what Apple Maps shows at CECOT in El Salvador, the notorious prison where the US is deporting individuals it says are members of MS-13

This is not great for Apple. People who were going to buy one anyway but might have waited for the 17, are pulling forward those purchases, which will likely mean suppressed demand for the next generation. If prices do go up it’ll be a double whammy.

I’ve had 5 different people reach out today asking which iPhone to buy because they were getting one today before tariffs kick in, assuming Apple will have to raise prices soon.
