I'm trying out Lucida Console as a coding font and I'm finding that it's extremely legible at small sizes.

There are also bold and italic variants available these days.

‘Understanding how much Epstein clearly loathed [Lawrence] Krauss is essential to truly appreciating this next email from 2017, which reveals that at some point, Krauss assumed that Epstein was going to help him make a vampire movie called “Vampire Noir.”’

Oh I would love to see this script […]

I wonder if when people say "em dashes are a sign of AI," they mean a true em dash character rather than two hyphens.

In iOS 26.x:

1. Open Mail
2. Open a folder
3. Scroll down in that folder
4. Swipe from left edge to go back to the folder list
5. Open another folder
6. The second folder will automatically scroll after opening

I haven’t seen anybody talking about this but it’s driving me crazy. Is it just me?

“What Maslow's self-actualizers actually had in common was what he would later come to call ‘plateau living,’ a sustained capacity to appreciate ordinary existence, to find the sacred in the quotidian.”

Apple Signs Deal for Brandon Sanderson's 'Cosmere' Universe Movies and TV Shows Apple has signed a deal with popular fantasy author Brandon Sanderson for film and TV rights to Sanderson's "Cosmere" universe, according to _The Hollywood Reporter_. Sanderson has a large body of work, but some of his most popular fantasy books could be adapted first. Mistborn could be turned into a movie series, while The Stormlight Archive is being considered for television. Mistborn is a book series that's split into two eras, with the first three books featuring a group of magic-using metal manipulators or "Allomancers" overthrowing a dystopian empire. The second set of books follows the exploits of Wax and Wayne, two lawmen with magical abilities in a more modern setting. There are two additional eras planned for the same Mistborn series, so Apple has access to content that could result in a dozen movies. The Stormlight Archive currently features five epic fantasy books, each of which could easily be used for multiple seasons of a TV show. The Stormlight Archive is a classic good vs. evil tale, featuring the Knights Radiant against Voidbringers who want to conquer the world. Sanderson has 10 total books planned for The Stormlight Archive, but the "Cosmere" universe also includes many other standalone novels, all of which are linked together. Sanderson is one of the most well-known current fantasy authors, and in addition to his own books, he finished Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time after Jordan passed away. A TV show based on the Stormlight Archive is already in the early stages of planning. Blue Marble, a film studio run by Pachinko producer Theresa Kang-Lowe, is set to produce. Kang-Lowe has an exclusive content production deal with Apple. Apple won the deal after Sanderson met with multiple potential partners. Apple agreed to give Sanderson unprecedented control over screen translations, so he will write, produce, and consult on any TV shows or movies that Apple makes about the Cosmere universe. Sanderson is known for having some of the most popular Kickstarter campaigns to date, raising close to $100 million by selling his books.

Yes there are countless songs that use this chord progression, but this is the one Springsteen's new song immediately made me think of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0NxhFn0szc

The first and only time I saw Bruce Springsteen live was at a John Kerry rally in Cleveland the night before the 2004 election.

It has a built-in modem and a pop-out RJ11 jack for sending faxes! I very much want to send a fax with it.
