Finally getting around to testing out transcripts in Overcast and it’s incredible. Great excuse to re-listen to old ATP episodes that pre-date chapters being added and just jump to the parts I want to hear their takes on. @marcoarment I appreciate you making this a built in, free feature (as you said, it’s tablestakes for accessibility) but you should raise price of premium another $5 next year because the implementation is perfect.

@gruber from the macOS 26.3 RC release notes...looks like they're fixing the resizing windows thing.

For comparison's sake, here is the letter Tim Cook wrote in 2020 after the killing of George Floyd. It was published on Apple's homepage, not just sent to employees.

It is hard to believe both of these were written by the same person. One is heartfelt and sincere, the other is empty.

@marcoarment I'll be honest, I wasn't with you on Tim being a full-on Trump supporter at first, given that he's gay and who he claimed his heroes were in the past. But at this point, it's hard to deny.

“Apple’s Tim Cook is among a group of CEOs being eviscerated for traveling to the White House on the same day Border Patrol agents killed a Veterans Affairs nurse in Minneapolis.

"Cook, who gifted President Donald Trump a 24-karat gold desk ornament on his last White House visit, returned on Saturday to attend a dinner and screening of the first lady’s new documentary, ‘Melania.’”

When we look back on his leadership in the future, let this be Tim Cook's legacy.

On the night a man was murdered by ICE in Minnesota, Tim Cook spent the evening watching what must be one of the shittiest movies of all time with the people running ICE as their own personal terrorist organization. https://www.theverge.com/news/867429/tim-cook-andy-jassy-white-house-melania-doc

Tim Cook, Andy Jassy, and AMD CEO Lisa Su are at the White House for a VIP screening of the Melania doc.
