Think you’ve beat Adobe by vibe-coding perfect replacements for their 9 most popular apps? Think again, fool! Adobe has 836 different apps. Good luck with that!!!

Spotty took the flask from his jacket and drained it in a single pull. He pictured his wife, lying on a beach in Jamaica with her yoga instructor, and his vision clouded. Blowing past the sign for Dead Man’s Curve doing 80, he was jolted back to reality by a cacophony of screams.

Well, I guess the good news about piece-of-trash Shane Gillis hosting SNL this past weekend is that we got the season's worst episode out of the way early.

I simply cannot understand why multi-trillion-dollar corporations put out explainer videos showing team members chatting with their macbook webcams in their living room. Is there no budget for this?

Had to add a feature to support coffees with TWO ROASTERS for this one!

☕ New Coffee: Double Feature 🫘 Roasted by: Messenger Coffee and Black & White Coffee Roasters 🌎 Origin: Huila 🔬 Variety: Pacamara 🏔️ Elevation: 1750 MASL 🔥 Roast: Light Roast

Tools like Google Meet should *really* show each participant their realtime network quality. So often I chat with people and their connection is just crap and they probably assume the problem is on my end, because they don’t know otherwise.

Version 1.21? Really? After 31 years? Maybe it’s time to add markdown support and bump it to 2.0 and make it actually useful.

Jazz instrumentalists are like tennis players. Always making sounds with their mouths when they should be letting their instrument do the talking.

The point of Mark Zuckerberg's 6,500-word essay is to define a positive future for AI. Zuckerberg uses an example that is telling, in a grim kind of way: He asked an AI to pick out a “personalized” recipe to bake with his daughter. Read more from @lopatto.bsky.social: buff.ly/QouZnFZ

@panic.com humble request for the great Nova editor: let me have my fancy typographic options in Terminal windows, not just Editor windows. I have strong, Mac-assed preferences! ❤️

Just in case you still use any Basecamp products, DHH is crashing out about his AI product gently pointing out that it’s bad for him to have extermination fantasies about the Roma people.

Talk about enshittification. I can’t even open Photoshop, an app I pay a fortune to use, without getting some obscure AI-related error. It’s absurd.

One of my favorite part of owning old records is when the original owner has written on (or in this case, underlined) it! Typically they’ve also put their name on it. Records were so personal back in the day.

$100 to any reporter who asks him, "so you're saying Capitol Police should've shot dead everyone who breached the Capitol on January 6?"

Homan on people getting killed by ICE: "It comes down to one simple fact -- these people failed to comply with law enforcement ... all they had to do is comply. If they did, they'd be alive today."

Adobe just doesn’t give a shit any more, do they. Capital X, lowercase X… anything but a proper multiplication symbol. This from the industry-leading design tool.

Because I use Claude Code so much to help with my development, I’ve basically landed on Nova by @panic.com as my editor of choice. Its terminal is excellent, the editor and other features are there when I need them, and it’s a true Mac-assed Mac app. It’s a delight to use.
