For all the extraordinary productivity gains, there is an outside chance that Claude makes it just a little too easy to build something to scratch an itch / distract yourself from harder UX problems #buildinpublic #neobrutalism #claudecode

Has anyone ever had Apple Reminders add entries that were definitely not added by yourself? I've had a weird religious one added to a non-standard list (Company Ideas) ... and I can't imagine I was even remotely listening to anything along these lines for Siri to pick up, but even if I was how would it have done the emoji?

This is really creepy.

Genuinely impressed with Claude Code so far, but not exactly worried about it taking all our jobs. This is the second time this week it decided, mid-session, that my username was `robgrough` and stopped finding any files. Humans very much needed in the loop.

On the iPad OS 26 Beta… how are you meant to delete/remove apps? Has that option disappeared? Right-click or hold on apps doesn’t have that option anymore.

Just added a dark mode to giglr.co.uk, which I'd been putting it off as I figured it was going to be an amount of work. But a combination of TailwindCSS and building all my components in Phlex made this super easy.

What's the point of iPhone mirroring if every time I go to use it, it says me I need to unlock the phone first. Wasn't the point for when you've "left your phone on the other side of the room” ?

Finally caved in and had a play with ChatGTP. Utterly terrifying, and amazing in all the different ways.

Other than how it answers my coding questions, I love how it figures out the chat titles too.

Something like this as a coding companion is going to be awesome.
