Why is it that within the same app the AppleTV Library view is so much worse than the Show view? If I try to browse the episodes by going through the Library view, the UI is ironically worse for browsing through all the episodes. Meanwhile, if you go from the Search view or happen to see a card for the show from the Home page, it has season categories, additional info, etc.

Apple’s strategy to bridge the gap by porting iOS games to macOS isn’t just clever; it’s a smart way to boost the perceived value of Macs. From a customer’s perspective, the main difference between platforms is how you interact with them. Younger generations are already comfortable doing "serious" work on mobile devices, while older generations still view computers as essential for such tasks.

I’d love to see what an Apple Card Titanium credit card would be like. Apple’s take on the ultra exclusive “black card” market. I’d sign up for something like that in a heartbeat if it included lots of travel perks / concierge that’s actually good / etc.

  • Turn off a bunch of extraneous DoorDash notifications
  • Playing around the app
  • DoorDash shows a modal suggesting that I might miss relevant updates
  • Go back to notification settings
  • All of them have been turned back on

Bunch of bullshit
