Reflecting on how WWDC has changed, I still like my blog post from 2014. I could update it for the modern era, but I’m not inspired to do so. In a way, the best of WWDC will always be captured in those great moments from a decade ago, or even farther back. Perhaps it’s part of getting older.

New Kickstarter campaign from Jason Snell and Myke Hurley to fund a podcast series covering Apple history:

Designed in California will consist of at least 30 episodes dropping over 12 months, looking at a wide range of Apple history, drawing from the best sources available.

It has been a while since we bumped the system requirements for Micro.blog for Mac. Current version runs on macOS 11 Big Sur. This feels like a good stopping point. The next version (4.0) will require macOS 14 Sonoma, so it’s more modern but still fine for the Tahoe haters.

Spider-Noir is off to a great start. I didn’t realize until we queued it up over the weekend that it was a TV series, not a movie. Watched most of it in black and white. 📺

Can’t believe WWDC is next week. Obviously the new Siri will the headline, but hope we get some other tweaks to Liquid Glass and general robustness.

Apple will improve Xcode too. Many developers barely touch Xcode now, though, so curious how Apple will keep it relevant, or if they even need to.

Codex added a profile with token usage over time. Interesting.

Watched: Marty, Life Is Short. Surprisingly I didn’t really know that much about Martin Short’s early career. Nice the way they mixed in footage from home movies too. 📺

I’ve been digging out some of the backyard. Planning for new plants, rocks, and a garden railroad. I finally get to use my copy of RailModeller Pro. 🚂

Amazing series. Thunder kept it close, had a couple shots to get back in it late. Just a great win. Go Spurs Go! The finals are going to be fun. 🏀

Let’s go, game 7! Crazy that with tonight’s game, the Spurs and Thunder have played each other 12 times this season. Feels like it might be a record in the modern NBA era. 4 regular games + the NBA cup game, and now this series. 🏀
