@leaflet.pub is really fun, and feels like the old web

Me enjoying the new @jjricks.com video

“Sorry can’t code right now, my keyboard needs to touch grass”

Next year’s iPhone Air should replace the USB-C port with a second speaker

I think I spotted a validation vehicle for Tesla’s Robotaxi service. This guy has been practicing turns & parking for at least 20 minutes now… pretty cool!

Starbucks WiFi is smart, but I'm still smarter

@marioguzman.bsky.social how do you feel about SwiftUI on the Mac? Do you think PDX Transit would be feasible without AppKit, or nah?

It never occurred to me to shoot RAW and use a LUT in Lightroom to get fantastic iPhone photos. Half the reason I bought a Fuji is to avoid the "smartphone look" which has too much sharpening. Tyler Stallman's review of the 17 Pro is great!

WAIT A SECOND

Screw your web apps, I'm listening to shitty mp3s of my favorite middle school bands on QuickTime 7.

+1 for sub-communities on Bluesky!

So glad I could spend an hour getting the baby to sleep for his 30 minute nap

Probably my fav Apple feature (said as I’m stuck on the side of a highway)

Stepping into any robotaxi involves an incredible amount of trust from the user. Waymo has carefully built trust with the public over *years*. Even then, I know people that refuse to try one. Waymo is hyper-aware that one bad news headline could crush them.

Glassified Apple Music looks amazing on the Mac! #WWDC25

Turns out the Mac had some pretty good ideas when it comes to multitasking.

LOVING this iPadOS update — it turns out macOS solved window management a looong time ago #WWDC25

Can’t wait to see liquid glass on my mom’s wallpaper (low-res flower that looks like it shot on a disposable camera) #WWDC25

@mcuban.bsky.social has done an incredible amount to support this platform — publicizing it, investing in developers building on it, etc. As someone that wants to see the protocol *and* the company survive, I appreciate what he’s doing. And man, some of the comments on his posts are WILD.

I wrote some words and made some renders on what the New Design Language of iOS, iPadOS and macOS might be. Physicality: The new age of UI. www.lux.camera/physicality-...

Uhh I think they took a wrong turn

Texas charges me $200/year to register my EV… this bill in Congress adds an extra $250 💀 Why are you punishing me?? I just like batteries!

Route sharing + Waymo vans sounds like a good future to me. I wonder if you could get better road utilization by dynamically planning routes for 4-6 people, versus static bus routes (designed for 30-50 people) that get low ridership.

On the same day that Google's new video model terrifies me, this has me optimistic & thrilled about the future. It took time to figure out how to live with smartphones in a healthy way – it'll take time with this stuff too.

Grateful I get to be a new parent in the age of LLMs Instant, always on, functionally unlimited access to humanity's synthesised advice and research on newborns. They've coached me through sleep schedules, lactation issues, health concerns, and generally been a great emotional support system.

I'm running a *very* tiny container on AWS, and operating with MASH rules to save money: - 0.25 vCPU / 0.5 GB memory - Spot capacity (container can be interrupted) - No load balancer & static IP — just a script that updates Cloudflare DNS when the container restarts 😂

Pretty sure Cloudflare Workers is my favorite cloud service of the past few years. Deployed globally by default, no complex networking setup, and crazy fast. There's a lot of overhead to getting the same setup in AWS. (And I'm afraid to try CloudFront Functions.)

I was in school while smartphones were becoming prevalent. They sucked the life out of everything. Each class began with a ten-minute silent scroll as we waited for it to start. I wish I had gone to school in a phone-free environment.

Who knew that Toyota could be the one competing with Tesla’s FSD?

Love this city

babe wake up time to pay AWS $1.80 for nothing in particular

Bluesky loves links! We don't downrank, and major publishers report that we're sending more link traffic than other sites. Here's the top links shared on Bluesky, updated hourly. theblue.report/week/

Severance, White Lotus, The Pitt. It’s a really good time to be on parental leave.

Never thought I’d like AI images, but the “make my photos anime” trend is actually fun. I’ve been sending these to family all day. Really impressed with OpenAI’s image models — this what Apple’s ‘Image Playground’ app should be.

Now I’ve got one of these and a TRMNL (@usetrmnl.com) on the way. 2025 is the year of the hackable paper displays!

Day five as a parent. Daytime: beautiful, joyful, everyone in a good mood. Baby is super cute and we can’t stop staring at him. Nighttime: hellscape. Seven hours of nonstop feeding, screaming, and changing.

My wife and I became parents a few days ago — and it’s the most surreal thing I’ve ever experienced. Here’s a very exhausted-but-happy new dad rocking his son to sleep for the first time! He’s amazing, my wife is amazing. Good times ahead!

“hey boss i finished that spooky mystery music track you needed! what’s it for anyway? murder she wrote? matlock?” “walmart parking lot security psyops panopticon tower”

The Blue Report is amazing. The most clicked on articles are right here theblue.report

Question for a Bluesky dev – maybe @pfrazee.com? What is CardyB, and how are you able to reliably fetch OpenGraph tags without getting blocked? I've been trying everything – full browser rendering, etc.

Hey @george.black thanks for making theblue.report! I wanted to be able to access it from within bsky, so put together simple feed of the top post for each link (updated hourly).

I'm obsessed with all of the Severance "vibe" videos coming out. This is so good!

This is also a valuable resource for sky users theblue.report

HOLY SHIT

** It's happening!! ** We managed to convince Google to open source PebbleOS. Took a while, but they just did it today! github.com/google/pebble With that, we're bringing Pebble back! I blogged about it - ericmigi.com/blog/why-wer...

Driussi and the 2022 season is what led me to become an #AustinFC fan, and a soccer fan generally. Thank you, Seba! I always loved the mural that popped up downtown after that season ended. I'm glad I got to capture it! (Full resolution here if anyone wants it: files.george.black/2022/afc-mur...)

Finally ripped the beta tag off my side project: theblue.report! Links are now scored based on posts, quotes, reposts, *and* likes! And, there's a "time machine" feature to view the page at any point in the past (starting today 😅). I also managed to engineer the AWS bill down to $12/month!

Maintaining a starter pack for #AustinFC newcomers – anyone I should add? (I don't think I should be on the list, but Bluesky won't let me remove myself 😅.) @thenorthendpodcast.bsky.social
