I just had an idea for a neat thing Apple could do.
Y’know the little tabs that pop up when you select text in iOS?
It’d be cool if the device learned which actions you tend to choose in a given situation.
So, if you choose “Translate” more often than, say, “Format,” they could make that a little easier for you.
This is an idea that I just had.
(Also: they could completely rethink that whole model because it’s hardly changed since 2009 and it’s very difficult to use and I have so many things I’d like to do with text but if I can’t successfully hit the little arrow that lets you see more options, I feel ashamed and want to turn off the phone.)
Unrelatedly related:
1. Apple News+ is a cynical lobster trap that only exists to push shitty run-of-network ads for plantar fasciitis insoles and free money for seniors;
2. The whole reason this occurred to me is I really wanted to show Madeline an article with an amazing photo.
You see? Women really CAN have it all.
But sometimes that means having some paint tubes on the floor your baby can play with with once they’re done being briefly intrigued by your right foot.
The more I look at it, the funnier this photo gets.
Just to say, this is not what our own house looked when we had a toddler.
If anyone ever runs into Jeff Permenter, please ask him how his estranged brother, Jason, is doing.
(this joke will be funny to as many as six people)
