A portable Mac with all screen and no keyboard or trackpad built in? My god, how would one even interact with such a device? 😉

Pixelmator has been doing features like this for years and they always called them "ML" features (like "ML Super Resolution", "ML Enhance", "ML Denoise"). Now they've shifted their wording to "AI".

Good reminder that "AI" is a buzzword, and not AI things are LLM-related.

Maybe I'm slow, but is there a way to turn off these notifications in Reminders without also turning off notifications for tasks?

I'm sharing lists with my personal and work devices and I get this every single time I add a task. It's maddening.

For Moretex subscribers, Grey and I are watching and reviewing each of the Lord of the Rings movies.

This is my first time seeing these movies!

There are two special episodes available so far.

As well as these specials, you get ad-free longer episodes of Cortex.

"The core “Pixar braintrust” is gone"

From @gruber on Pixar laying off 175 employees.

Sad watching the once absolutely brilliant flow of films from Pixar devolve to a shadow of its former self.

Pixar was a mighty Indie that reinvented the movie industry.

What made this happen? Was it the loss of Steve Jobs? Changeover at the exec level?

Niche WWDC wishlist item: Smart charging reminders. They’ve got all the usage data and calendar info, it’s all right there!

Just remind me to charge my watch because I’m gonna go to sleep and then off to the gym as soon as I wake up
