I create videos, produce podcasts, write posts, raise four children, and have a wonderful wife.
I’m not saying AI is going to take over the world, but if it can remember things and offer to do the work instead of reminding me. I’m going to get really lazy.

If you have to back up to make a turn in a drive-through in your F350 super duty, your truck is too big to be driven on the road.

I never knew iPhones had notifications stored and now I want a Notifications app where all apps can send notifications and I can just open and look at them without getting notifications.

I don’t know how I ever missed this weird cover.

Ed Sheeran with The Roots remixing Fetty Wap’s Trap Queen and they nail it. I love music reaching across boundaries!

We’re entering dangerous territory with AI
The AI hype is real. We’re not prepared for what’s next.

I am thinking of upgrading to Notion AI and I was blown away by the interstitial! First of all props for sending a reminder email 5 days (FIVE DAYS!!) ahead of the actual charge. The way that it is laid out with the timeline makes it very easy to understand how long the trial will be.

I briefly considered building my own RSS reader. Tools like Claude Code or OpenClaw make it technically feasible, and the idea of a custom-built solution is always tempting.

I decided against it.

I just discovered “A tiny Mac app that converts song links between Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and more.” The app, Relinq, has one of the best icons I’ve seen in a while.

@johnvoorhees.macstories.net After listening to the latest AppStories, you can create a filter to view the parent project along with the child projects by using ##ParentProject in the filter. It should work as you mention in the podcast, but hope this helps!

I quickly wrote a bit about @myke.social and how he is absolutely killing it right now. The content he is creating while starting as a new father is so inspiring!

I’ve never skipped back to try and figure out how a transition happened more than when I am watching The Studio.

The Lego 3-in-1 boxes are genius. Bought my kid one and went back to get two more because they wanted all three.

Had a weird conversation with ChatGPT, but wow it hit the feels with this response about my kids!

“You don’t want perfection, you don’t want control—you just want connection. You want to be the dad they want to talk to, even when they’re grown, even when life gets messy.”

All I want for iOS 19 is Reminders syncing inside Notes. If Apple gives me that, they can make the icons any shape they want.
