Everyone talks about the app debacle as the thing that tarnished Sonos’ rep, but for me it’s the Roam first gen. That thing is so bad it made me swear off Sonos products forever 🪦

Man, the Claude Chrome extension is SO useful! Was never able to use it for work stuff (for legit security and privacy reasons), but I'm doing some pro bono web consulting work and dang is it ever helpful for automated testing

Started reading Postman’s “Technopoly” and in the first pages he frames tech and both friend and enemy and then quotes from Freud’s “Civilization and its Discontents”. This book is gonna be banger

I suspect that the sport of baseball was developed to be followed via Apple Watch widget

If Apple doesn’t release an updated iPod Classic with a terabyte ssd, AirPods compatibility and usb c will it really be Apple 50?

Somehow my work set up has become "3 computers hooked up to one monitor" and there it shall remain 😅

Tbh I liked Granola better when it was called Müesli but I get that the US market would never have been able to handle that umlaut

Love the little icon for Claude Dispatch! It’s giving Arc Mobile Companion vibes

Turns out Raycast makes Apple Shortcuts infinitely more convenient! Just made some simple ones for Bluesky so I can bypass the feed and write a quick post/check notifs and the fact that I can access them from ⌘-Space is a game changer.

Y’all I know us nerds are stoked about vibe coding, but to normals I think it comes off like the self-checkout of software 😅

We never figured out a cute name for Browser Company employees, but I'm now realizing we should have all been BCNY [name], much like the A$AP mob

This timeline is whack as hell and scary, but I am happy we got jazz versions of Flea and Andre 3000

Oh hellllll yeah

@davidpierce.xyz re: markdown links— if you’re still using Arc you can use ⌘ ⌥ ⇧ C to copy url as markdown (you can do this with folders from the context menu too). This shortcut and context menu option also works in Dia (I specifically requested that these be added 😅)

Would love to read @vicmsong.bsky.social’s perspective on “iOS apps are better than Android”. Tbh I think Korean and Japanese android apps are as good if not better than their iOS equivalents (Kakao Maps, Line, mobile games). I think the issue is that *western* Android apps are worse than iOS 🤔

@obsidian.md ‘s iPad app has no business being this good! On behalf of all iPad + keyboard case sickos, I thank you 🙏

I saw an old dude on the Tube wearing an Arkells touring band shirt and had to use all my willpower not to be like “oskee wee wee my dude HAMONT til I die!”

I’m so glad @thepaikinpodcast.bsky.social exists — I need my fix of Steve calling politicians “horses asses” now that he’s not on TVO. Need more of this in Canadian political discourse 😆

I heard there was a secret cord that David kept in his cable hoard but he can never find it when he needs it

Tbh I’m not sure why Canadian coffee shops chose to have a “freedom fries” moment with “Canadianos” when our Australian brothers and sisters had already invented the Long Black 😅

Got to demo Glaze ( @raycast.com ‘s new vibe coding tool) AMA!

Reposted a version of this on LinkedIn and man that algo is nottttttt interested in anything but girl bossing and gate keeping lemme tell ya!

Turns out the best bicycle for the mind is an actual bicycle

This! Agentic AI powered tools enable this and imo humans + agentic AI work best together when the human takes breaks, eats food, sleeps, hangs out with friends etc. Jamming more work into every available second is detrimental to the quality of the work you’re doing and your quality of life!

I wrote about why using agentic tools like Claude Code often feels bad and how we can make the user experience more human centric: markdyerhere.blog/post/8108204...

Every time I listen to The Daily I can hear the hosts going through this face journey

Hey all, I’ll be attending a @raycast.com meet up in Lodon 🇬🇧 on the 20th to play with their new Glaze feature! Is there a Mac app you’ve always wanted but nobody has built? Hit me up with a reply or a DM and I’ll see what I can build for you! ✌️ More on Glaze here: lnkd.in/eju4EcM3

Casual reminder that generated images are the clip art of the 2020s and your slides look corny af

Anyone else notice that the Claude macOS app has been mega buggy since they rolled out CoWork? 😬

Me out here reconnecting with all my old work homies after getting laid off

I said “sí” loudly in response to something and trigged Siri 🤦 Contextual LLM based Siri cannot come fast enough!

I hope Nothing (phone company) has the COURAGE to do a fast food brand activation and call it “Nothing Burger”. This is my dying wish please hear me Carl!

Me when I show up to the office

Honestly, how dare Apple release a sick little yellow laptop mere weeks after I buy a keyboard for my iPad Air 😭 I could finally have my 2026 version of Izzy's laptop from Digimon!

Trust and believe, if I was a normal human who didn’t need to do AI stuff for research I would HELLA buy the pink iPhone 17e! It’s more than enough phone for every day phone stuff and I loathe a camera bump. Also, it reminds me of my coral Pixel 3 from back in the day ✨

Tbh the Chrome team has been COOKING lately! Not surprised they’ve upped the release cadence www.theverge.com/tech/888001/...

My name, is Neopets

Damn I am so pumped to play with this! Patiently waiting for my invite 🙏🙏🙏

also sick new anamanaguchi album anamanaguchi.bandcamp.com/album/scott-...

Me on my iPad + Keyboard: "Y'know Pages is actually kinda nice!" Me on my Mac: "Why is pages using THREE GIGS OF RAM?????"

As of today, I'm officially no longer at The Browser Company. It was an amazing almost 3 years! As a way to say goodbye, I've written a love letter of sorts. If you're building a product, software or otherwise, I hope this helps you 💙 markdyerhere.blog/post/8100058...

Also, check out @anildash.com 's MUST-READ article about how to, among other things, end the erroneous idea that there is nothing we can do to protect ourselves, our communities and our businesses from AI-produced harm: www.anildash.com/2026/02/23/t...

I wrote a thing on why your Claude outputs are bad (spoiler: it's because you're not using your noodle!) markdyerhere.blog/post/8097324...

@davidpierce.xyz love that your 3 year old is essentially J Jonah Jameson 😆😆

I may no longer be at the Browser Company, but I did manage to get 4 tracks on the BCNY favs playlist before I left! 3/4 are Canadian content too~ open.spotify.com/playlist/3Lc...

Tbh this is like 20% marketing stunt and 80% a method to get long form feedback from humans. This is actually kinda brilliant on Anthropic’s part because these systems live & die on quality feedback. A response to a newsletter allows for long form responses compared to in app feedback/social posts.

Who the heck is Ed Tech???

If anyone thinks $25/year is too much for a (tbh very beautiful) weather app then they have severely underestimated the spending power of weather dads 😆 acmeweather.com/app
