50 years of @Apple

From the early days of the #iPod to bringing the #iPhone into the world, some of the most formative years of my career were spent there. The products and teams stay with you. But more importantly so does how Apple thinks.

A few lessons that have held true for decades:
1) Start with the user, not the tech. The question isn’t “what can we build?” but “what problem actually matters?”
2) Focus is everything. Apple is defined as much by what it says no to as what it builds.
3) End-to-end matters. Hardware, software, services. It all has to work together.
4) Details are the product. What feels small is what users remember.
5) Debate hard. Commit fully.
6) Build for the long term.

We’re in another moment of massive technological change. The fundamentals haven’t changed.

The companies that win build things people actually use and can’t imagine living without.

Congrats to everyone who has been part of Apple’s first 50 years! 🙌

What a fantastic project in Romania. 🇷🇴

[IonQ @IonQ_Inc]

IonQ just hit a major milestone in Europe, deploying a 1,500km quantum-secured network across Romania. This is one of the largest operational QKD networks in Europe, proving that quantum security isn't just a lab experiment—it’s ready for national infrastructure.

Dear @figma can you allow users to anchor comments to frames instead of page canvas fixed positions? Currently they don't move with the frame if I choose to move it to another page. Tagging @rogie along maybe he can put in a good word 😜

@zendadddy Which tweet was that? 🤩

@DannPetty To use absolute position feels like I am doing something wrong. It was a steep learning curve but honestly I can’t design without auto layout now. The best thing about it is that you understand how devs have to work to create the front end code.

1. With all the excitement about the #GENIUSAct and in the US, it was easy to miss this big #stablecoin news out of the EU.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) now officially allows any existing EU-licensed Payment Institutions to use stablecoins for payments without getting a CASP license.

Truly mind-bending work on quantum gravity from @Sky_Darmos 🤯
I've downloaded the PDF and started reading through it. Thanks for sharing @JosephJacks_

[JJ @JosephJacks_]

I’ve started supporting the incredible Greek-German theoretical quantum physicist Sky Darmos. Hope to see him join @ResearchHub soon. Here’s some light 700+ page weekend reading. Some snippets: 🔬 🌌 https://t.co/lAOkeTSdZ9

A designer’s role will be critical in building software in the future.

[Y Combinator @ycombinator]

Design isn’t just about making things work—it’s about how they work, says Dylan Field (@zoink), the co-founder & CEO of @figma.

As AI transforms tech, he believes a designer's judgment, taste, and agency will matter more than ever.
