Quick recap of what you'll actually find useful from WWDC 2026:

⚡ iOS 27 brings up to 30% faster app launches, and Apple says the update is coming to devices as old as the iPhone 11.

✨ Siri is getting a major upgrade with Apple's new foundation model:
• More natural, conversational interactions
• Searches across apps in the background to find what you need
• Writing tools available across apps
• Integrated with Spotlight search
• Continuity across devices
• Visual Intelligence support
• More powerful on-device AI
• New dedicated Siri app

🔔 Notifications are getting smarter:
• Apps can update existing notifications instead of sending multiple new ones
• Reduces notification clutter and keeps updates in a single thread

⚙️ Shortcuts now use Apple Intelligence:
• Create powerful automations using natural language
• Example: "When I'm leaving work, alert Pedro when I'll arrive"

📅 Calendar now understands natural language:
• Can create and update events from plain text
• Automatically picks up names, locations, dates, and times

🧭 Safari gets some useful upgrades:
• Automatically organizes tabs into groups
• Can create custom extensions for specific webpages, tailored to your needs

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 For families, parental controls are getting a major upgrade:
• Set restrictions based on your child's age
• Choose what apps they can install
• Control what they can browse
• Manage who they can talk to
• Enable nudity and gore filtering
• Monitor and manage screen time with app-specific time allowances

🎨 You can now adjust UI tint and transparency to better match your preferences.

📸 Shared Albums now support Android users.

@GoogleAIStudio A chess bot in Python ♟️

Turns out making a computer play chess is easier than being good at it 😎

I built a chess bot in Python this weekend ♟️

Features:
• Human vs Bot
• Bot vs Bot
• Adjustable difficulty levels
Here's what I built, what I learned, and what I'd improve next 🧵

@CaptVenk One keyboard for coding.
One keyboard for debugging.
One keyboard for emotional support.

Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor.

It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. https://t.co/OVVPJO7VQx

TIL that satellite communicators like Garmin inReach, the little device that can ping rescue services from anywhere on Earth, are banned for civilians in India.

So, if you get lost trekking in Meghalaya or Ladakh, don't bring the one thing that could actually save you.

Great system. 👍
Genuinely curious what experienced trekkers actually do.

At what point is saving money considered "too much effort"?

[Ayan 👨🏻‍💻 @contactdevayan]

I am saving ₹2868 per year or around ₹239 per month after switching to postpaid...
Family plan costs me roughly ₹883/30 days ( me and parents ). That's ₹294 per head with 30 days validity with unlimited 5G.
Now compare that to prepaid ₹349 5G plan.
349*3 = 1047 per 28 days...
Now scaling it to match the 30 days validity of postpaid it becomes ₹1122/30 days.
