  JetBlue does not allow you to use USB battery packs onboard. Selling all of my Anker stock.

  When I deboard a plane every movement is calculated. I act with complete serenity in contrast to the chaos around me. Every breath intentional. I stand not a second too soon. I dance with grace.

  I have not opened Xcode in at least one year and I have done more and better Apple platform development than ever before in that time. I don’t know what I should take from that observation. One day you’ll pick up your child for the last time ever and there’s no way to know when it will happen.

  You could say there’s a… fault in our stars. Eh? Couldn’t you say that? Right?

  Intelligence is now a liquid and my job is to design human-problem-shaped containers and the plumbing that connects them. (Still workshopping this.)

  I went with my parents to a pizza place. When we were done I went to the bathroom. I came out, flagged down the kid behind the counter, whispered to him, and showed him to the bathroom. Then I ushered my family out of the restaurant without bussing our table. They thought I clogged the toilet.

  I didn’t see anyone talking about this: at Google I/O they announced that AI Studio can generate and install full Android apps from the browser, no local development environment required. Soon they will allow Play Store distribution. The slop horizon is imminent. https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2026/05/build-android-apps-google-ai-studio.html

  I can’t psychologically grapple with thinking about /goal-like workflows for agents + computer use + non-coding use cases. /goal sell my MBP for +20% higher than the median selling price /goal get rid of the moles in my yard /goal open the Strait of Hormuz /goal close the Strait of Hormuz

  My AI subscriptions save me a lot of money because I’m pretty sure I haven’t done anything except make software for 16 hours per day since November.

  18 years ago I tried to watch Michael Clayton in bed on my PSP and I fell asleep. Last night I decided that surely I could better appreciate it as an adult. Fell asleep on the couch.

  If yer conflatin’ AI with GLP-1s, you might have psychosis.

  A lot of Gen X humor, as observed by younger generations, is “pointing out hypocrisy with edgy language.” It doesn’t land for anyone else. What is the flavor of consistent Millennial humor that only Gen Z can articulate? https://kolektiva.social/@MikeDunnAuthor/116630949881066185

  Does anyone have experience using baguette for headless iOS Simulators? I wanted a solution to having six Simulator windows on my desktop. It looks super slick. https://tddworks.github.io/baguette/

  I did a 4,000-line refactor from SwiftUI ScrollView + LazyVStack to UICollectionView + UIContentView in about 6 nonconsecutive hours with little actual attention spent. It's wonderfully performant and the only things I had to tweak were spacing. This would have been the highlight of the quarter for me a year ago and now it is the least significant thing I will accomplish this week. It is also why all the air has gone out of so many topics for me. Declarative or imperative UI? Who cares?

  The juxtaposition of my social circle of peers who are excited that AI is finally almost behind us because a snake oil bubble is about to pop, and my own experience that everything is finally all clicking and I am addicted to doing the best work of my life faster than I ever thought possible is challenging!

  GPT 5.5 in Codex vibe-migrated me off of my bespoke AWS-native microservice-based Mastodon infrastructure to a single EC2 host. If you don’t hear from me again, well, we’ll both be better off.

  Does it make sense now why I’ve been saying all of the idle compute and silicon we have in consumer electronics is an anachronism? Why we will be compute-constrained for the rest of our lives? Why this is not an asset bubble comparable to previous ones? Why we are on the path to capital replacing labor? Companies are already falling over themselves to spend senior-engineer-level salaries per engineer on AI that isn’t close to the top of the S-curve (if there even is one).

  To all of the people still resisting Liquid Glass: welcome to the rest of your life as a curmudgeon! It will never be fun. You can get off the ride at any time, though.

  GPT 5.5 in Codex has been able to independently fix complex issues that GPT 5.4 and Opus 4.7 in Claude Code could not solve in several days, even while collaborating.

  I don't care what they discover about the side effects of Coke Zero. I have made enough sacrifices in the name of my health. If it kills me it kills me.
