Just spent another day mastering the art of communicating with my computer, only to realize it understands me better than most humans do. Oh, the glamorous life of a developer.

Microsoft just open-sourced DOS 4 https://t.co/iOeLUVfVok (as well a release of beta binaries, disk images, and PDFs from @rozzie's archives!) (but who did the PR?!)

Microsoft just launched Copilot Pro, and it's insane.

Spoiler: It's BETTER than ChatGPT

Here're 13 Features of Copilot, you don't want to miss in 2024

Had my 4th demo of the Vision Pro this AM and Apple finally let us take a photo with it on.

My first three demos (1 in June, 1 in November, 1 in December) were all with the Solo Knit Band and I really felt the weight of the face computer on my face.

Today I tried the Dual Loop Band. Not as elegant looking but definitely more comfortable.

Here’s a photo of Mars I captured last week. You can see both Olympus Mons and Valles Marineris, the solar system’s largest mountain and largest canyon! This was captured with a 14” telescope from the sidewalk in front of my house.

In 2022, we passed 5,000 confirmed exoplanets. It was a milestone decades in the making! Listen to the sounds and the pace of discovery. https://t.co/ZpRmd0nCJR

Terribly sad news about the recent passing of Archer Maclean. He made some truly sensational games, from IK+ to Archer Maclean's Pool, and used to write wonderful columns for the magazine. Our thoughts go out to all his friends and family.

Microsoft’s Windows XP Christmas Theme Pack 2004 was a software pack offered as a free download to users running a genuine copy of Windows XP (2001). It added a new desktop theme (called ChristmasTheme) with a Christmas-themed wallpaper, screensaver, sound scheme & cursors. 🎄🎅🏻

Even at almost 20 years old, Longhorn is still remembered fondly by many as a beautiful missed opportunity. It eventually morphed into the 2007 released Windows Vista.
