Just dropped my phone on rough sand and the screen protector shattered. First time for me ever! This is also the first time I’ve had a screen protector on my phone, just got it installed a few months ago during the battery change.

This screen would’ve been busted without that protector covering it. Feel pretty lucky overall 🤣😮‍💨

I love how they burned the same text in this replacement wood piece at the top 😄

Must’ve been a fun summer job task for someone 🙌

Something that they like in a just announced beta 1:
“Here’s my 5 part blog series on how the new transparent tab bar will revolutionize the way you write apps!”

Something people criticize in a beta 1:
“Well the OS always evolves so much over the summer. Nothing to worry about now. It’ll all change.”

Just added autosaving of recorded GPX track to upcoming version of Maptrails. It prevents a track from getting lost in case of empty battery or app crash 👍

Claude still gets very confused trying to do coordinate conversion math. Like, for example doesn’t notice a variable that’s right there.

I asked it to find a subtle mistake in the parameters or calculations that could result in small map tile misalignment. It suggested changing a division to multiplication, or switching the order of latitude and longitude values. Looked like it first tried very hard, but after it failed its internal reasoning, it spit out just some answer that didn’t make any sense.

I guess people aren’t vibe coding map apps.

Installing watchOS 26 this fall is going to be a grim realization of the state of Apple software for many people. This is not the kind of OS update that’s designed to make your older device more valuable to you, but to kick you into purchasing new Apple hardware. The device it hurts the most is Apple Watch, with its severely limited battery life margins.

Linus Torvalds isn't just really smart, he's also a good person.

Switch 2 Welcome Tour is great fun! And it got me convinced Joy Con as a mouse is a cool idea. Yeah it’s a mouse, but one with gyro & acceleration sensors + rumble, and there’s one in each hand!

Damn would’ve been so cool to use the Nikon Z6 as a camera for Switch 2 with the Elgato CamLink 4K. But no dice.

Perhaps there’s an update that fixes this?

Nintendo Switch 2: Which webcams work?

Which webcams work with the Nintendo Switch 2? The company says any compatible USB-C cam will work, but we discovered that doesn’t ring true.

Now how am I supposed to tap those date picker up and down arrows with the tip of my finger?
