I create videos, produce podcasts, write posts, raise four children, and have a wonderful wife.
I am thinking of upgrading to Notion AI and I was blown away by the interstitial! First of all props for sending a reminder email 5 days (FIVE DAYS!!) ahead of the actual charge. The way that it is laid out with the timeline makes it very easy to understand how long the trial will be.
The latest Accidental Tech Podcast is amazing! Marco describes how he set up Overcast transcription (which is absolutely amazing) and gets very into the details of how this all got setup over the past year. I’m constantly amazed at how hard app developers work on their apps and what goes on behind the scenes. Take thirty minutes out of your day while also looking at the pictures.

Everything needs updating, charging, or configured. It’s exhausting. Now multiply that for being the tech person in the family and everyone relies on me for everything with a battery.

I briefly considered building my own RSS reader. Tools like Claude Code or OpenClaw make it technically feasible, and the idea of a custom-built solution is always tempting.

I just discovered “A tiny Mac app that converts song links between Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and more.” The app, Relinq, has one of the best icons I’ve seen in a while. https://relinq.app/

In the MacStories Weekly: Issue 478, John and Federico are taking a couple weeks off to recharge before the new OS and iPhone releases are announced this fall.
"As much as we dislike pausing our regular publication schedule, years of doing this have taught us that a well-timed break keeps us from burning out and makes for a better fall season when we return."
I am so happy that these guys are publicly stating this. ... https://tuckerchastain.com/2025/08/08/in-the-macstories-weekly-issue.html
