In the time since the #Ticketmaster queue stopped updating, I built a Chrome Extension to show you your actual place in line instead of the dreaded "2000+".

I did another yak shave and rolled my own GIF view implementation for SwiftUI after being dissatisfied with what was out there.

SwiftUI library for rendering GIFs from data, local assets, or remote URLs, with no external dependencies. - rubencodes/SwiftUIGIF

The OpenAI story and the Theranos story are *remarkably* similar from an outside POV. Different scale of grift, but very similar.

Big fan of iOS 26 but tapping on the text of a tab item seems to have a 50/50 success rate 😓

No AI ad campaign on the NYC subway could ever capture the insane energy of the human made, nihilistic, vaguely suicidal Times Square poetry but nice try

Locally AI brings Apple’s foundation model to your iPhone, enabling on-device chat, summarization, rewriting, and more. Entirely offline and private. The model is available on Apple Intelligence-compatible devices.

I've given Dia a shot now for a couple weeks, but... it's just Chrome with a ChatGPT gimmick, and that just isn't nearly as fun/useful as Arc.

It’s 3AM and I just recreated @Apple Liquid Metal right in the browser. No JavaScript. No WebGL. Just raw HTML + CSS. Let me know if you want the code

"lack of any real new AI features" am I the only one super excited that Apple announced a 100% free on-device LLM? This is pretty big.
Excellent WWDC: Cohesive story, deep integration and continuity across the devices, zero false promises, impressive new UI and significant new productivity features on the Mac and iPad. But the lack of any real new AI features, despite that being my expectation, is startling.

imo in 2025 software engineering interviews should look something like this: - convo about your experience and past projects with the hiring manager - take-home assignment related to the work you'd be doing - in-depth convo about the take-home assignment

As a very technically savvy person, if it takes me 35 minutes to navigate through your maze of a site to figure out how to cancel my internet plan, you have failed, @Verizon.
