Tech, expanded & untangled

JR RaphaelThe Intelligence Insider is a tightknit society where I (JR, your humble humanoid host) share all sorts of advanced insights for making the most of your favorite devices. It’s a better, more sustainable form of tech journalism — in-depth, interactive, and 100% independent.

No ads. No gimmicks. No AI (though, to be fair, I’m only 47% human).

You’ll learn something new and useful every day. I promise.
