Personal Look But Don’t Touch I haven’t yet had the opportunity to try the headset out for myself, but I’ve been having a lot of thoughts over the past few days that I wanted to write down while they’re fresh. The first is that everyone I’ve spoken to who has tried
Having Lots of Photos is a F**king Nightmare I’m currently in the process of moving my photos out of Lightroom (Classic), and into Apple Photos. It’s taking a long time, and leaving me with plenty of opportunity to think about how photo management could be greatly improved. Lightroom is feature packed, and great at what it
Personal Copenhagen My partner Sara and I spend the past few days in Copenhagen and had an excellent time. It’s a wonderful city to just be in, everything is clean, it’s easy to navigate. Things just work. It’s hard not to notice the shortcomings of your own city after
California, Here I Come I’m very excited to be heading back to San Jose for Apple’s developer conference in June (even if most of it is more online than in person). It’s been far too long since I had the opportunity to hang out with friends in this community. I am

Introducing The Cast of Us: Recapped A weekly podcast discussing HBO’s The Last of Us. Since its release in 2013, I’ve been a huge fan of this game, its world, and its characters. It’s widely beloved and critically acclaimed, not just for its gameplay, but its story, world building, and presentation too. It’
Qi 2 A new evolution of the Qi charging standard has just been announced, and it’s based on Apple’s MagSafe design. MagSafe is essentially just Qi charging coils that use magnets for alignment, and to support the weight of the phone when used in docks or car mounts. It’s
A Few Things That Made 2022 Less Terrible Not a Best-Of, not a Year-In-Review, just a few things I liked. Games Tunic I know I played quite a few games this year, and enjoyed most of them, but Tunic is easily the most memorable of the lot. It borrows from some of the greats, like Zelda and Hollow
Dropped Box After 12 years, I’m leaving Dropbox. Okay, I know it’s hardly the most exciting declaration, but after over a decade of use, it feels.. substantial. For so much of the 2010s, Dropbox felt like it was the underpinnings of so much of my digital life. Working across multiple
Personal Hey. So it increasingly feels like all of social media is an absolute dumpster fire, and I figured this is probably a good opportunity to re-examine how I use it. The first step is to cut out twitter. I’m keeping my account active, and I’ll likely post about big
