Ha… Bloomberg has the complete email sent by Tim Cook. But they summarize it before posting it verbatim at the bottom of the page.

Why, oh, why

Today I read two articles about iPad Minis. These are the first in ... years?
I am sure this is caused by the Apple event in early September.
The only question is if they are based on Apple official or unofficial leaks.

What is the rule determining where you can find the previously used app on the iPhone when switching apps?

I expect it to always be at the left but that is definitely not *always* the case.

I keep being reminded that highlighting and saving highlights from a non-fiction book does not really work.
When I highlight, I do it with the current context in mind.
When I extract the highlights, their context is gone and those quotes rarely make sense independently.

Who has a system they trust, works for them,
and are willing to share it?

I've been using Current since it has launched.

@mrmasterkeyboard@mastodon.social hi, if I'm not misremembering I read in your feed about Vim accepting AI-authored code. Could you please reshare the details? My searches failed. TY

1. I am enjoying the app so far. I’m still trying to figure out how to handle the different streams given each has their own volume which might led to missing RSS items among too many toots and blueskies.
2. Based on the few days experience, I feel the area where the app could improve is feed fetching: every refresh results in many, many errors, most of them cause by a 60s timeout. 2.1 Additionally, it's not clear if I should retry a refresh immediately, wait, leave the app do it later.

Thanks for the app!

Pretty great resource of common macOS tools evaluated using common criteria https://www.reddit.com/r/macapps/comments/1j56vvb/mac_app_comparisons_2025_update/

Does anyone have any hypothesis why after rebooting macOS chooses the 2nd input source and not your primary one?

I locked my OS, twice, because of this.

I need some URLs that perform redirects as I'm testing a library. Please help

Who has /opt/pkg/env/active/bin and /opt/pmk/env/global/bin in the macOS PATH?

I have never seen anything like this before. Searches come up with nothing.

First experience with uv tool has been a disaster. I couldn't achieve anything I planned to (create an isolated environment for a project, pull in dependencies using pip, etc.). For every command I have spent a lot more time trying to figure out what command to run. It seems like I came to uv with my baggages and uv's take is rather different.

Are there coding specific LLM models that can be run locally? Which one is worth trying?

Does YouTube show you the last watched videos? Where? How?

I have noticed that clicking update for apps in App Store does nothing. This happens on both iPhone and iPad today. Anyone else seeing this!

PIA: With iOS 26.6 searches on iPhone do absolutely nothing.
How do you feel about the upgrade to iOS 27 and the new search?
I feel very confident… it will fail as miserably as it did for the last release

I do love Italian food.

I also think this is going too far: https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20260709-seven-things-you-shouldnt-do-when-eating-in-italy

It is called dogmatism.

It's OK if Italians dislike tourists.
It's OK if Italians consider their food the best.

I don't see what purpose serves to impose their rules onto others though.

@tastapod@mas.to pretty much what you write is what I sort of expected.

• uv init in an existing project folder does almost nothing of value. Even if there are sources in the folder it keep creating main.py. Yupee!!!
• there's no venv being created

It seems there's a gap somewhere.
