Probably the same way they handle our summer monsoons in Miami: they shut down the service until conditions clear.


Does nobody care that iPadOS lost its old Split View workflow? I would never consider another iPad until it's brought back. Their multitasking story is a total mess at the moment. Hopefully Lemay can work it into iPadOS 27


This is what I'm most interested in. My only hope at the moment is for Apple to revive the iPhone mini -- even if they only refresh it every 3-5 years! I'm so bummed I'll be 'forced' to upgrade from my 12 mini later this year for mostly camera and battery reasons, but oh how I wish an iPhone 17 mini was on the horizon.


I love Libby. It's introduced me to so many titles by browsing what's currently available that I otherwise would've skipped over. The 21 day loan period gives me just enough of a gentle push to read that I wouldn't have if I owned the book outright.


More and more I'm convinced that buying my Honda Accord 11 years ago was one of my better life decisions so as not to have to deal with the BS that is the modern automobile. I do wish it had CarPlay, but the phone mount is a good trade-off if it means I get a reliable car with physical controls.


Nailed it. It's honestly criminal and something I consider UX terrorism the way macOS lacks this basic functionality when even something like ChromeOS ships these by default. Wonderful hardware, but boy is the OS rough 20+ years later.


Glad to know I'm not the only madman using a slew of text files to dump their thoughts into. My kids will surely think I was a crazy person if they ever stumble on them after I pass.


I admire the Beeper team’s effort, but this post playing the victim card is deranged. Beeper was trying to turn a profit piggy-backing on Apple’s servers and Apple curbing access is construed as “interference”, lol.

I don’t know if it would’ve made a difference, but charging a subscription out of the gate and poking the bear by claiming Apple would have a difficult time blocking access doomed this project from the start.

Again, I admire the hacker spirit, but what were they thinking?


Cool idea, but it could use some work. For example, Italian-Spanish (Masculine) should yield 'Matteo' or 'Mateo' but seemingly doesn't because of a 't' despite being essentially the same name.


> […] we’re going to give everyone an opportunity to have a “top three” ranked list of what other things around Automattic they would be interested in working on.

Admittedly cynical take, but please don’t let anybody mess up Pocket Casts. That app is near perfection and has been criminally underrated for far too long.
