There needs to be an Apple Fitness workout for carrying a coffin. Cardio + strength training. Special workout for carrying it up the stairs.

I love that Letterboxd shows a pink heart when you heart the movie (instead of the usual orange).

Current status: siphoning water from the 12ft pool in the back garden that had started to overflow with the amount of rain while we were away over the last 2 weeks. It was kinda turning into an infinity pool, I guess, but the extra volume of water was putting too much strain on the sides of the pool. Which kinda reflects how my clothes feel after the last 2 weeks of eating and drinking.

A person walks out of the pub toilets and asks to speak to the manager. When the manager comes over, the person says “I have to tell you, there’s a buffalo standing by the sink trying to help people out.” The manager replies: “I’m sorry, that’s not a buffalo. It’s a wash-hand bison.”

Up until undo functionality was invented in the late 60s, there was a single universe. Since then, every time someone Cmd-Z’d something on their computer, it created an alternate universe, one in which the task was never undone. Now there are a nearly infinite number of universes.

Also we get better Internet here than at home, so it makes sense to just live here forever. Tomorrow I’m installing all the latest Apple betas cause the connection is 10 times faster.

Last year my wife and I bought a house in Ballycastle. We’ve stayed in it lots since then but this is our first “summer holiday” here that wasn’t living in a building site. It feels amazing. Some folks like to go away to other countries, but we mostly like to stay closer to home. In fact, this feels like home. Now to plan for retirement here…

The interior angle of the pizza slice emoji in the Apple emoji set 🍕is 48.5556º, implying that the pizza was cut into a very awkward 7.4 slices. (Or that somewhere there exists another 48º slice and two corresponding 41.4444º slices)

That first pint after you finish work on your last day for 2 weeks.

If you're a straight white dude with tons of privilege that's asked to be on podcasts and speak at conferences, why don't you try “Recommending Somebody Else” today! It's totally free, and it doesn't mean you don't still get to do it too!

Every gr*ber post about Twitter et al needs a footnote saying that he was the one person in the world to think (publicly! loudly!) that Elon would make it better, just like he footnotes every post about Bloomberg reporting. I don’t make the rules, it’s just fair play.

Today I’m launching S3 Files, a client for S3 compatible storage inside the Files app, share sheet, shortcuts and the Finder on Mac.

Technical apps like mine struggle on the App Store. Please tell your S3 loving friends about it.

I’m not liking this whole John Wick / Batfink (“My Wings are like a shield of steel”) dynamic in John Wick Chapter IV. It’s like they introduced a new games mechanic with the Kevlar suits and are overusing it.

My wife: “I want us to watch Yellowstone”
Me: “I have one condition”

#introduction

My name is Elizabeth but please call me Lisa.

I'm probably best known as the person who started the #Safari and #WebKit projects at #Apple. You may think you know my deadname but... you don't.

I've drawn underground comics, pioneered using a Mac for newspaper graphics and developed software at Adobe and Netscape.

Now I write video #transcoding scripts and sometimes podcast.

Follow me and I'll fill your timeline with boosts.

My new app, TotK Travel Guide is finally available on the App Store! There are two ways to pitch this. It's a spoiler free companion app to use while playing Tears of the Kingdom. Look up interesting locations, add pins to the map, and keep notes, all in 1 app.

The other way to pitch this is: it's Apple Maps, but for #TotK 😄

It's free with a single optional IAP to unlock all features.

I hope you like it!
