Lovely app to track sun’s position year round.

Wednesday: 10 minutes of Apple Fitness strength beginner strength training, 10 minutes of Yoga for beginners, followed by 160 seconds of plank, and the followed by 11.1 km of (-10°C with a windchill of -17°C).

The two workouts were nice and easy, and today I learned not to do plank right before going out for a run.

Especially a run in snowy conditions. What a mess out there. 😳

moskh,

@WTL Gregg is my favorite. I have never worked out with videos from other instructors.

moskh,

@WTL Yes 👍 My favorite part is seeing live rings on Apple TV. I find it motivating.

Sometimes I use it for treadmill running too.

A vicious helmet to helmet hit. Doesn’t get called and announcers don’t bother mentioning.

I wouldn’t fraking move to Texas either.

Apple is moving an AI team from San Diego to Austin. Most of them are unwilling to relocate, risking termination.

moskh,

@gedeonm asking people to uproot their whole lives for a corporate restructure is not cool.

If you have been beta testing Black Ink for iOS, I inadvertently let the build expire earlier today. It's been updated, but you might need to rejoin the beta: https://testflight.apple.com/join/NzNMAjOa

moskh,

@danielpunkass beautiful icon!

Whoaaaaaa, never mind on the coffee maker recommendations, apparently you can buy pre-made coffee now and just heat it up in the microwave 🤯

moskh,

@christianselig Check these out

I have tried them and when you need a quick lazy coffee, this can't go wrong

Apple, on Macs shipping with 8GB of RAM:

"Actually, 8GB on an M3 MacBook Pro is probably analogous to 16GB on other systems. We just happen to be able to use it much more efficiently."

Read more here...

moskh,

@davemark I run some docker containers which end up using 6GB which is far from ideal with base 8GB configuration.

Three cash outs so far (total earned: $2,845!) and I can't recommend @tiptopcash enough.

Within minutes of accepting an offer, they dispatch a dasher to retrieve your item (no need to package them up), and the cash is in your account within 24 hours (if not sooner).

If you're offloading old iPhones, they beat Apple's trade-in prices.

Use my code for a $25 bonus on your first cash out: 31ALNXQN.

NOT a sponsored post!

moskh,

@chrismessina giving them access to Gmail is a hard no for me.

NFL fan?

Check out Amazon’s Thursday Night Football on the Apple TV.

Tap the app, swipe up, there are tons of live stats.

First time I’ve ever seen this. Very cool.😎 🏈

//@gruber

moskh,

@davemark I love that broadcast setting. Player route trails are the best.

Something I'd like to know:

Which read-later app do you use?

(More options in the next poll)

moskh,

@viticci Not any specific app, but, Pinboard. It has been my bookmarks manager for ever.

Big Day: I just put up my "NO MORE NEW FEATURES” sign for my iOS 17/watchOS 10 updates.

A little tradition I have where I draw a line in the sand and stop working on new features and instead to switch to solely polish and bug fixing in the run-up to a major release.

I find having a physical sign is super helpful to constantly remind me to stay on target and get this update properly finished.

moskh,

@_Davidsmith Looks like you’ve replaced Textmate with CotEditor.

moskh,

@_Davidsmith I did the same.

CotEditor is definitely faster. But after years of usage - just out of sheer habit - I miss pink flower icon of Textmate in the dock 🙂

I've been listening to my "Discovery Station" on Apple Music for a couple of hours now and it has yet to play a song by an artist not in my library. Off albums not in my library, yes, but nothing I would consider new to me.

moskh,

@film_girl @agiletortoise I listen to songs from 3 different Indian languages apart from English and algorithm surprisingly has picked that up and has recommended songs in all the languages. So far I have had good luck.

"Buying an iPad Pro for coding was a mistake"

🔥

My 2 cents, with the M2 entry Mac mini priced at $599 (especially great price if you already own a display), the Mac is absolutely the way to go for coding.

moskh,

@davemark Absolutely!

World's biggest calculator.

Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_will_close_down_on_june_30th_reddits/

moskh,

@christianselig no hyperbole, but, Apollo is right there with the best app i've ever used. I don't recall it ever crashing! Looking forward to supporting whatever you work on next.

The Education Apple Store is offering a $100 gift card/discount on M2 mini purchases.

moskh,

@paul do these purchases get reported to credit bureaus as loans?

It's surprisingly difficult to find a cheap (< $30) set of BT over the ear headphones that work right on a Mac. I got one set like 5+ years ago and finally broke, have tried 4 diff ones so far and they are all annoyingly buggy, have bad battery life, or bad range.

moskh,

@paul how’s noise canceling on these? Very curious if it is any good.

@marcoarment Get a kobo.

moskh,

@snazzyq @jsnell Quinn/Jason,

I lost my Forma and looking for a replacement and my options are down to Sage and Libra 2.

Leaning towards Sage for 8 inch screen. Couple of questions -

  1. Are Sage battery issues as bad are they are made to be?

  2. Do page turn buttons on Sage work all the time?

Thanks!

moskh,

@snazzyq @jsnell Thabks. Ordered Sage! I’d still go with Forma too, but only refurbished ones are available ☹️
