Good morning. Welcome to Friday. Life starts now. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Just because a story has two sides doesn’t mean the two sides are equal or equally valid.

Just because you can throw a window up in 3D doesn’t make the window 3D. #visionpro #apple #programming

“Mac and iOS developers are intelligent, but not experienced. Their pattern indicates 2 dimensional thinking.” Spock #ios #mac #visionpro

“Never believe anyone with a gun. Even if he’s your dad.”

We will see a closer marriage of Mac/iOS UIs this year at WWDC, with a smattering of VisionPro bastardization. #wwdc #ios #mac #visionpro #ui

Overheard: “I’m going to Seattle.” My mind translates this as: “I’m going to see ATL.” My LLM is extremely L.
