I’m in a camp where Tahoe is just ugly, but worked fine on my mac and with my usage and devices. On the other hand, iOS 26 is so incredibly bad. Anything from anti-user choices, UI glitches, to keyboard… it’s tiring. It might be the one where I’m pushed to a different OS for the first time. I doubt Apple can fix itself in the near future, with the leadership they have.

Good read. If I imagine all these layers of Agent to Agent economic automations, I’m hopeful for a new class of technopriest hackers that are able to exploit nuances and weak security. And build new hidden empires within those systems.

I’d like to hear someone from MS if this has any impact, or if the report is overblowing it? Closing a library and pushing something called “Skilling” Hub sounds cartoonishly stupid and disrespectful.

It’s very close on their quality IMHO. Miles better on the value. I bought a Lumibricks set this year, after decades of buying Lego.

The set design (Cafe) was nice and it makes a good display piece. I liked their build techniques and integrated lights. The individual bricks were clean and with good color uniformity. But after a life of building Lego sets, I was able to quickly tell that tactile forces for connecting pieces were different to Lego. I will buy more of their sets, but I will keep buying Lego too.
