Not Everything Deserves Equal Billing

Jason Fried talking about The Obvious, the Easy, and the Possible: Unless you're making a product that just does one thing – like a paperclip, for example – everything won't be obvious. You have to make tough calls about what needs to be obvious, what should be easy,

Don't Fall In Love With The Product

I saw Matt Birchler write about not falling in love with products, and I was reminded of something Mark Evans wrote a couple of years ago. The advice is aimed at people building things: don't get attached to what you're making, get attached to the problem

London, January 2026

My second trip out with my new camera was my annual tradition of visiting London between Christmas and New Year. We were a bit late this year as the usual winter sun didn't appear until later on, but we still made it before going back to work. Both

I've been noticing some traffic on my blog from LLM based search. Small little drips of visitors from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and similar search tools. Not huge amounts, but enough to make me curious about what's actually happening. Someone out there is asking these LLMs questions, and

Locked Out Of Your Life

Nick Heer writing about a high-profile Apple account lockout: Customers need a level of protection from any corporation with which they are required to have an ongoing relationship. This single high-profile incident should raise alarm bells within Apple about its presumably-automatic account security mechanisms and its support procedures. An Apple

The Halo Fell Away

I've been an iOS user for years. The halo of products that kept me locked into the ecosystem has fallen away one by one. The iPad stopped being my computer ages ago, then the Apple Watch got replaced by a Garmin for running. What's left is
