On my way back to Amsterdam to tell everyone how cool watchOS is at @appdevcon tomorrow ✨😊

We’ve been redesigning and rebuilding OmniFocus for the Apple Watch, and its capabilities have evolved significantly since we first designed the app (for the original Apple Watch). The SwiftUI SDK is much more powerful—and the hardware is leaps and bounds ahead of where it used to be. It now has several times the RAM of the original iPad! (And, unlike that original iPad, it also has the ability to download content in the background.)

Constraints are now about usability instead of capability.

If they insist it's a "mental health" issue, maybe we should call a gun control bill the "National Anxiety Reduction Act” because that's actually super accurate.

Thirteen years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.

Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

@_tim______ The other useful lesson there is to be creative in imagining the ways things can fail because at our scale they definitely will.

As I like to say, we're responsible for a trillion databases—one in a million is… a million.

@mredig @shantini hey, we’re happy to see more diversity, but in 2023, having 51% of the population so underrepresented, especially given the investment and lip service to making tech less male-centric is really demoralizing to a lot of us. It’s awful when I’m not just one of the only female speakers but one of the only females at a conference at all.

Literally, the first national media coverage I've seen that even attempts to properly characterize and provide the critical context necessary to understand the current state of #SanFrancisco.

Most reporting on the subject has been highly irresponsible. This isn't. Here's why.

@marcoarment I can assure you it was. What in particular is bothering you about it?

Only in Republican world can a man assault a reporter, get convicted, and go on to be governor yet a woman named Zooey Zephyr can be a threat to a roomful of men just by talking and end up thrown out of the legislature.

So tired of these people with mouths full of scripture but hearts full of hate.

I feel like every social app is just people yelling about the other social apps and it’s kind of tiring

"Banning drag queens won't work. The only thing that will stop a bad guy in a dress, is a good guy in a dress."

“This state” takes ten characters; “Nevada” takes six.

This is a forward reference headline, which goes out of its way to conceal what the corresponding story says.

It’s a consequence of click-based advertising and of course it makes our information streams less useful. The practice started among clickbait junk websites but has spread to CNN, the Washington Post, the New York Times, and others.

@ct_bergstrom I intentionally ignore/do not click on those. It's irritating.

Why is Social Security going broke? Income inequality.

Workers are making less than projected.

Meanwhile, the rich are getting richer — so more and more income escapes the cap on the Social Security payroll tax.

It's just one more way the super-rich don't pay their fair share.

Kreider again! 1-0 Rangers!
