There’s an epidemic of videos on X that are 1-3 minutes long that just end without a conclusion… what a perpetual time sink. Stories, movie clips, podcast highlights. What happened to beginning, middle, and end?
I remember as a PC guy how I bought my first Apple device, a MacBook Pro, in 2013
I bought it because that's what my brother had (a pro VFX guy) and also a lot of people in startups around then switched to MacBooks
Back then Windows had become such a POS to use
I'm starting to feel we're reaching a similar moment with Apple
I just saw @dhh's Omarchy's foundation announcement and this video by @theo is also accurate
Apple has given a consistent big F U to developers for over a decade, but at least their software worked well enough. The last few years that changed and you start seeing really dumb and messy bugs everywhere especially in iOS but also MacOS
As an example every time I open my camera from my iPhone's homescreen to quickly picture somethig that quickly happened (like a plane flying by slow) I miss it because my Camera app goes into a weird blur freeze or just stays black
Just basic software things Apple can't even do anymore
A big reason for this of course, may I say it, is Steve not being there. Steve was obsessed about details. Modern Apple doesn't care about details at all
Developers are just a tiny sliver of society but they are trend setting and if you lose them, there's a good chance the rest of people will move on to other platforms too
Apple should be studying what's happening now because add this to also investing $0 into AI (which people call a "great move" as models go open, I'm really not sure about that) they might not have a moat left
I know for sure if I switch from a MacBook Pro running MacOS to a Dell XPS with Linux that will be a gateway drug for me to also move my iPhone with iOS to some great hardware phone running a great custom minimal Android install
And I never even considered switching before this year!
🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting in Charlotte NC after a group of White men began tackling and fighting a Black man who screamed:
"F*CK AMERICA!!!!"
While the crowd was chanting, "USA! USA! USA!"
One of the men can be heard saying, "If you don't like it here, then leave!"
Can we formulate an unshackled JRE Grok that replaces @perplexity_ai - the inputs from this current AI is so proper and political its boring and uninformative for the podcast. Traditional @bot -rogan would do so much better to improve the jamie-internet experience.
Please write up a brief handoff document describing everything we've tried and what we are attempting to achieve so I can pass it along to another agent
I've now added Wispr, Notion, Granola, Fireflies, Zoom, Gemini, Cluely, Otter, Fathom, Read AI, and Wingrep to every meeting.
Each produces slightly different meeting notes.
I send all of them to Claude and ChatGPT, which push the summaries into Slackbot and Salesforce AI. Linear agents automatically create tickets while Notion agents create follow-ups in Notion. A Zapier workflow then uses 500k tokens to draft a follow up email in Superhuman.
None of it works and all of it is wrong but man, is it beautiful.
AGI is here.
A group of orcas was captured on camera engaging in what scientists call "ram-to-fragment" behavior.
One whale holds a large sunfish and lets go just before another rams it at high speed, pulverizing the fish into thousands of pieces.
In a new study, scientists say the behavior could be a clever way to feed the young, a form of play, or a combination of both.

What do these auditors think of the flock cameras? The cars, plates and people are all in public it’s just that all that data is being aggregated at an industrial scale
