The MacBook Neo is such an interesting machine that it coaxed a thousand-word-essay out of me: https://samhenri.gold/blog/20260312-this-is-not-the-computer-for-you/

Last week I released SwiftUI Pro, a free and open-source agent skill to help everyone write better SwiftUI code using agents such as Codex and Claude. It's already at 1800 stars on GitHub and rising, but it was just the beginning. https://github.com/twostraws/SwiftUI-Agent-Skill

If you care about RSS at all, you’ve got to try this

This is just saddening at this point

Just realized you can mostly “fix” macOS Tahoe toolbars.

Switch toolbar style from “Icon Only” to “Icon and Text” and Liquid Glass stops invading your content.

Hi @caseyliss,

you mentioned on ATP two reasons for not using Messages in iCloud. One of them was that you didn’t like that it stores your encryption key on Apple’s servers. I care about it too and checked it out.

According to https://support.apple.com/en-us/102651, if you use ADP, your key will remain on your device. Footnote 9 explains what happens when you use standard protection and need to recover your data. The gist of it is: As long as you use ADP, the keys to your messages always stay on device.

PSA: Your friendly neighborhood developer likely worked hard this summer to bring their app to Tahoe. Unfortunately, the macOS App Store is buggy af and often fails to show available updates. Check for updates using the mas cli-tool.

Case in point: I had no idea @Iconfactory’s fantastic Wallaroo redesign had been out for five whole days—until I checked with the CLI today.

One exploit maker said this new security feature will raise the cost of developing and selling hacking tools for iPhones.

Apple's latest iPhone security feature just made life more difficult for spyware makers | TechCrunch

Apple launched a new security feature for iPhone 17 and iPhone Air designed to reduce the effect of memory corruption bugs, and in turn make spyware and zero-days more difficult to hack into iPhones.
