You don't have to swallow frogs Klein and Coates show that if you don't know what your core beliefs are, you're going to get played.

A good dose of perspective for those of us who are feeling incredibly lost in this political moment

In case you weren't already awake, the alarm's ringing.

What if the iPhone Air is an investment in pushing the iPhone down market?

Like in the iPad line, the Air could come down in price over time to occupy the spot of the current iPhone, which then pushes the iPhone down to the "e" line.

I know, unlikely, but maybe?

This. This. This. This. This.

If there were ever a time to fight, let me tell you, it's right fucking now.

What a beautiful article. kieranhealy.org/blog/archives...

"That built in to the heart of the United States is the republican ideal not just that anyone can become an American, but that this possibility is what makes the country what it is."

Let’s go!

This is just incredibly delightful.

Unfortunately, I don't think this is so incredibly broken such that they'll be forced to change path.

I'll get used to it, but it's the one area of the new design system that feels like an unequivocal mistake.

I can probably get over this last one, but it also confuses the primary controls on the window.

Are these controlling the window or the sidebar?

But then if it's not floating on top of anything, the effect is incredibly weird and ugly.

The answer to "what is it floating on top of," most often, is nothing.

After all, if there were something there, the user would never be able to access it in most contexts (content scrolls vertically, not horizontally, about 99% of the time).

Apple's framework has this as an option.

The worst is that the sidebar is often confused about what it's supposed to be floating on top of.

This is the *Finder*... what is happening!?

But beyond that, it's just awkward beyond belief.

First, all the margin required by floating it creates a lot of wasted space.

If that were the worst of it, whatever.

The entire concept is wrong from the start: the sidebar is secondary, supporting content.

Bringing it to the foreground flips that in ways that are at best distracting and, at worst, confusing.

I'm down with Liquid Glass.

Sure, it needs a lot of tweaking, but it's mostly fine. And it's just an incredible amount of fun.

BUT the sidebar is a train wreck.

‎Croissant - Cross-Posting ‎It's a social network explosion! And you can now post to all of them in one app. Croissant solves that oh-so-2024 problem of wanting to post to all these great new social networks — Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon. Now you can, in one shot. Croissant makes cross-posting buttery smooth. Features: * Se…

I'm going to experiment with posting to Bluesky, Mastodon, and Threads simultaneously with Croissant.

I'm sure my 5 followers across those services will appreciate the uptick in posts.

Well, this is just a wonderful piece of writing.

Melissa and her husband were killed. It’s difficult to overstate her centrality to the MN DFL. Former Speaker of the House, current Rep, and a recruiter of our best and brightest.

It’s an unimaginable loss.

I’m hoping Hoffman and his wife come out of surgery okay.

@avindman.bsky.social I just want to say that you’re an inspiration. Thanks for all of it.

Now let me grab a flag and get marching.

Mostly visual bugs. Not bad.

But keep in mind that it’s my iPad, not iPhone, so my usage is much less intense.

Oh, and try dropping an app into a folder on the springboard; the animation is just about the coolest thing I’ve ever seen

Quick reactions after installing iPadOS 26: liquid glass is mostly fun but needs to be dialed in; windowing really is a game-changer; but the added complexity is a lot and makes it feel closer to macOS than iOS (not a bad thing depending on your needs!); and the beta is buggy

Can we talk about how amazingly good of a buy the 1st Gen 11 in iPad Pro when it was released?

@davidpierce.xyz I’m sure you’re drowning in recommendations at this point, but I randomly picked this up and it’s amazing. A tight, griping, story about 80s Soviet/USA spies. Great. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

@gruber.foo I'm sure someone else already mentioned this to you, but I vaguely recalled you *did* mention the SJ compliment on DF by putting "very insightful and not negative" in the masthead (a la "I ♥︎ Amy Jane")

Fiona Apple: Fetch the Bolt Cutters Fiona Apple’s fifth record is unbound, a wild symphony of the everyday, an unyielding masterpiece. No music has ever sounded quite like it.
