Ghost asks you to publish a review after you sign up to Ghost(Pro). I'm not sure this is what they had in mind, but overall I have to say that I'm enjoying the software.

There’s obviously no certainties - and I’m not a betting man - but I think this author is on to something. Healthcare fits the brief of a “painful, expensive problem where technology can help”. That’s the fundamental criteria for any softwa

I think a lot of the criticism this article levels at The Ocean Cleanup's efforts is pretty unfair. Whilst it might take 10 Jenny's (20 ships) 5 years to clean up 50% of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, that's significantly l

I came here to say this. Whether you take out AppleCare or just take repair costs on the chin: Apple is probably walking away with a decent chunk of cash because the cost of repairs are so high relative to the cost to them - even in the cas

I've got a similar memory: I can forget almost anything no matter how obvious, but if it's linked to a location or is spacial then my recall is spot on. I can't tell you anything about 90% of my education but could give you e

“Trust” is entirely my issue with Apple too. I spent some time - and even wrote a post on my site - trying to clarify my thoughts and the steady erosion of trust seemed to be what I most object to. I too am trying to take control and respon

After thinking over Apple's recent announcements I managed to get my thoughts together and in black and white. I'm submitting them to Hacker News not because I believe others need to read it, but as a sanity check. A lot of the di

'Cross-platform' in the sense that it has to accommodate mobile and desktop which is certainly one of the hardest bits of cross-platform. I know true cross-platform is infinitely harder because the differences go all the way throu

I bought an M1 at release and in past 6 months have bought a new Apple TV, a HomePod Mini and a number of HomeKit accessories. My wife got a 12 Mini recently when her 7 Plus was smashed and I had planned on buying a new iPhone this autumn t

I spent a bit of time watching the sessions after this years WWDC. I’m primarily an Elixir developer but have wanted to try Swift for a while, so the introduction of Actors felt like a good point to jump in. My enduring impression after lea

The indictment here that Agilebits was willing to go above and beyond to maintain native code on both iOS and macOS yet couldn’t justify it even after going all-in on SwiftUI for iOS is striking. It demonstrates just how hard cross-platform

I think they’ll regret more than the confusion they’ve caused after the dust settles. Regardless of the security and privacy implications of their changes and how I feel about those; I have never associated Apple with CSAM more than I do no
