Must admit that Apple dogfooding Marzipan makes me feel better about the Mac. The apparent neglect of MacOS was one of my biggest concerns and a reason to go full-in on Google; if they back up the apparent improvement in their approach with hardware I’ll definitely reconsider.
Been thinking about WWDC some more… the updates to iOS notifications certainly are interesting. As usual iOS got the best of the updates.
As a potential future Apple user, today’s WWDC was OK… if they balance out the emptiness (honestly there was a lot of padding in there) with both a good week for stuff actually made for developers and a strong end to the year (software and hardware) then it is good news.
In the world of Twitter, a woman will be silenced for posting crime statistics from the FBI.
Seriously, here on Micro.blog if you want to reply to this with “but the good people at Twitter” or any Men’s Rights bullshit, you can fucking miss me. I don’t want it.
Hi GitHub users. 👋
Enjoy networking your code with fellow LinkedIn professionals.

Suffice to say I am quite jealous of all the WWDC adventures, much like I was of the I/O adventures. Have fun everybody!
There were so many people, including nurses and doctors, out there to support her.

Leah Whitehead is an amazing person, a reminder of just how much potential we all have.
I know that, on my death bed, I would regret not giving this a shot.
Out of all of the people I discovered traversing the Apple enthusiast landscape, Casey is one of my favourites. He is a great addition to the indie worker ecosystem. 👏
Sometimes I just stop and think about the people who on one hand get super angry about Changing That One White Dude when a story is adapted to a different medium whilst also saying “Lol. It doesn’t matter if people see themselves in stories.”
It makes me sad every time I see statements posted as attached images or tweetstorms. A basic free blog combined with copy and paste is infinitely better, plus you can also do the crappy thing on twitter!
Listening to Merlin Mann and John Siracusa talk about Apple’s problems with attracting entry-level customers on Reconcilable Differences and they are nailing it. Apple are simply no longer head-and-shoulders above everybody else.
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Apple continues to justify that premium label.
This is an issue that has gone unheeded for too long.
Awesome. 👏
