So if someone threatens to kill you and your family, and you shoot them, something has gone wrong? I'd say something has gone right.

Neither working as a 7 eleven worker nor a cop is a sacrifice, it's a free labor market.

Has anyone done a study on correlation between no-chase policy and increase in robbery or retail theft? Would be pretty interesting

Voice input is still far less accurate than OpenAI's unfortunately, otherwise I would have already switched.

I adore Tog on Interface by Bruce Tognazzini, who led the earliest editions of Apple's HIG. He explores ideas that have been lost to time, like tailoring an interface to a user's personality.

You might call me paranoid, but I’m avoiding AI boosterism in my public persona because I can imagine a future backlash against its advocates.

This will probably happen naturally as knowledge work declines.

I like to go running with nothing on me besides a house key, and it's useful to be able to stop by Whole Foods after the run and buy a snack without a phone, watch, or wallet.

Au contraire, my airtag in my car sometimes makes sounds even when it's just me driving in the car.

Not sure if you've found this: https://www.elevationlab.com/collections/airtag/products/tag... It still takes some space but quite clever

There are YouTube videos for disabling the speaker. Some ideas for location: behind the glovebox or under the spare tire.

Something like this product could potentially be a small theft deterrant. You can tell there's an AirTag, and there's no easy way to remove it. https://www.elevationlab.com/collections/airtag/products&#x2

This is brilliant just like Elevation Lab's 10 year battery for the AirTag. Do you think they'll work together?

Just buy a generic Find My tracker on Amazon for about $5.

Recycled polyester is crap, just like virgin polyester. It's just a way for brands to make it seem like they're hip and sustainable, when you're basically wearing crude oil on your body.

I'm pleasantly surprised Apple allows third-party manufacturers to make trackers that work with Find My. I've bought a bunch for as low as $2 per tracker. The only missing feature, like you mentioned, is missing UWB.

It makes no sense to leave your AirTag attached outside. I hide mine in the most difficult to find pocket in my luggage.

I've always preferred clear cases, and I notice when I get the white iPhone it definitely stays cooler (especially when used as navigation in the car).

Why is that? White is the best color because it absorbs the least heat when exposed in the sun.

You're likely paying a lot for your phone plan. Unlimited plans these days are in the $25-35 range.

Apple has been selling multiple generations for many years now. So 16e looks like the cheapest iPhone for this upcoming year.

There was only one such feature that caught my eye. The new front camera sensor is now square. If you have more people in your selfie, the software will detect this and pick a wider aspect ratio for the cropped shot. Not sure if Android has

Reminds me of this tweet that calls out the problem of the popular position "science is real" "Science isn’t real - that’s terrible epistemology. It’s a process or method to generate and verify hypotheses and provisional kno

There is a way to do this in Figma. While an element is selected, hold Alt and hover your cursor over any other element, and it will show the gap distance.

I noticed that in the past year my Alexa speakers have gotten really great at handling long tail fact-finding questions (about history, health, etc.). I use it a few times a week to learn something, when I don't feel like picking up a

This isn't a revolt against AI. SF attracts anarchist mobs and they'll vandalize buses, trains, police cars, bikes, whatever is around.
