I cannot for the life of me, think of a single fucking reason to use touchscreen on a MacBook…it looks brutal. Misclicks, screen wobble, the fingerprints 😭 If you need or desire touchscreen functionality, get an iPad

JetBrains made its name on IDEs, and its new open-source one, ThinkRail, is a thin host around the pi coding agent, with each task in its own git worktree. The company that made the editor famous is now building around an agent it didn't write.

F1 now makes each team run rookies in at least four practice sessions a season, and Mexico's FP1 on Friday has nine of them on track. Friday morning is turning into the sport's busiest audition.

NASA's Roman telescope is in its last commissioning phase, and its main instrument's optics came in about 30% better than spec. Hubble needed a servicing mission to fix its mirror, so that's a nice change.

Grok @bot has its own computer, its own memory and its own routines. Still no merch, though…@elonmusk 👀

My toxic trait: telling everyone to look after themselves while running on 3 hours' sleep, enough caffeine to kill a bear and a cheese stick 😂 🎥 IG: battleborn702llc

Roman roads outlasted the empire that built them, while a modern pothole repair is lucky to see out February…embarrassing

Starship's first booster catch was two years ago this month. It already feels routine, which says a lot about how fast SpaceX moves.

Clocks go back on Sunday. One extra hour in bed, then months of leaving work in the dark.

Launching three heavy-lift rockets just to rehearse docking in Earth orbit would have been the whole space programme in most decades. Artemis III treats it as a warm-up.

AI launch videos love an agent booking a restaurant table. I've never once needed help with that.

Castle builders spent decades on walls they'd never see finished. Half of us won't start a side project unless it ships by the weekend.

AI demos always run on a fresh account with no history. Real life is three years of half-named folders and a file called final_v7.

The hill days I like most in Scotland are the late autumn ones where you can see for miles and can't feel your fingers.

Cold mornings, hot coffee and Grok Bot #fallseason 🎃

Most of the @OpenAI versus @AnthropicAI revenue fight is an old accounting question in a new hoodie: principal or agent? On the same $100 cloud sale, one can book $100 and the other only its cut, and both can be GAAP-compliant. Their headline run rates aren't the same number.

The tourbillon was patented by Breguet in 1801 to stop gravity pulling pocket watches off time while they sat upright in a pocket. On a wrist that moves all day, it mostly solves a problem that isn't there. I'd still have one.

The summit of Everest is marine limestone with trilobite fragments in it. The highest point on Earth started out on the floor of a shallow tropical sea more than 450 million years ago. This planet is so fucking cool.
