This is just a fantastic interview with Tony Gilroy. If you liked Andor—which you should, because it’s amazing—give it a read.

I subscribe to a booksellers industry newsletter and this morning’s contained an article that made me do a double take.

Tech bros like Peter Thiel being really into eschatology is just a reflection of their deep narcissism and fear of mortality: they believe the end of the world will come during their lifetime because they literally cannot imagine the world continuing to exist without them.

Not quite sure how to reconcile a stated philosophy of “Our UI gets out of the way of your content" with the real “Look at me, look at me! WHEEEE" vibe of animations like this new one in Photos. Is it cool? Maybe? But it's also hella distracting.

This morning when I turned on the news, there was a soundbite from him coming back from the G7 to be here because he said something to the effect of "I don't like telephones" and I thought that is a hell of a soundbite for a week where you released your own phone. https://mastodon.social/@gruber/114696489364290395

Today's my 45th birthday, so to stave off the feeling of the inevitable march of time, I'm sharing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity I recently had: next Wednesday, May 7, I'll be a contestant on Jeopardy! I still kind of can't believe it. 😱 Check https://www.jeopardy.com/watch for your local listing, so tune in to see whether ten years of running a trivia game helps you at other trivia games.

If I hadn't said it before, it's because it always seemed to be so blindingly obvious as to not need being said. But let me be 100% totally, absolutely, transparent aluminum clear: I support the rights of each and every person to be who they are, without fear of repercussion or reprisal from the government or society at large. I have so many friends, family members, loved ones, and people I respect who are members of the LGBTQ+ community that to believe any less would be an abject betrayal.

Glad Apple Intelligence didn’t do news summaries back in the 1860s or we’d all be wondering who Lincoln shot.

Anybody else run into the watchOS 11 bug where the time is wrong—sometimes by minutes, or today for me, an *hour*—until you interact with the watch in some way?

But wait, there’s more! “Sleeping Wolves” is a new Galactic Cold War short story! Colonel Harry Frayn has been demoted and reassigned. But when he stumbles across a plot with galactic implications, he’s forced to take matters into his own hands. https://dmoren.com/writing/short-stories/
