Apple designed Macs with Apple silicon chips to automatically turn on and start up when the Mac's lid is opened or when the Mac is connected to power, but there is a workaround in macOS Sequoia if you don't like this behavior. I misread this the
Nothing stays still. Relative to the rest of the world, even something that’s not moving is changing. It’s tempting to talk about not making fast enough progress. But it’s far more useful to ask which direction we’re progressing. Nothing sits still, nothing stays at rest. My
“Of course, users can learn over time what prompts work well and which don't,” wrote Amelia Wattenberger, a research engineer at Github, in a 2023 post about the limitations of chatbot design. “But the burden to learn what works still lies with every single user. When it could
One of the gifts that comes with getting older is seeing people show up, time and again, and surprise you. Yes, we’re in a highly divisive world. There’s so much bad going on, it feels so depressing and uncertain at times. I’ve recently been going through The

Being locked out of the App Store and Play Store, on the other hand, is a slow squeeze. The first thing that comes to mind, obviously, is no new users. No growth. I was never particularly tempted to use TikTok. Something about the nature of videos rushing by just isn’
I’ve always hated phone cases and swapping the one I’m using almost weekly is annoying, I’m never able to get on with any. Most people I know have a case on their phone. I’m definitely in the minority here walking around without one. I’ve eschewed
Since a young age I’ve tried many different things. I’ve experimented, pivoted, tested, and pushed my way through a variety of skills, tasks, and learnings. Throughout that time I’ve failed time and again. Projects fell apart, my technical abilities came short of the mark, and endeavors I
If you’ve ever worked on software design, from mobile consumer apps to b2b saas apps, to web design, to just about anything that will touch code, you’ve likely encountered or been told about design systems. There’s a million articles on this topic, courses, classes, and an overwhelming
A ton of energy thrown into a project on day one, pushing ourselves to the absolute limit, means you’ll be exhausted the next day, likely putz around and procrastinate, and not be able to reach the highs of the day before. Over the last month I’ve been writing
