(Today's anti-favorite: if the phone loses reception for even a moment — common on trains! — it disconnects tethering and never reconnects. You're just offline until you notice. Then you need to reconnect from the Mac's Wi-Fi menu again, after waiting for the option to become available, a process that's almost as slow as dialing up your ISP with a modem in the 1900s.)
Sugar, on Apple TV+, is one of the weirdest shows I have watched in a while. I think I really enjoyed it? I have no idea who to recommend it to, but if you like stuff that's kind of different, check it out.
@gruber I just went back to watch the trailer again and there's literally one blink-and-you’ll-miss-it shot that hints to anything else. And yeah, episode length was a big plus—I burned through the whole thing in the last ten days or so. Even with a 30-minute episode, it all feels really weighty.
Not going to lie: lately I’ve been wondering if any of my work—podcasting, books, tech writing—is really reaching people. But it’s all worth it on those days when some random listener sends an email out of the blue to tell me just how much I’ve affected them.
