If you want to do something great with your life—whatever that means to you—remember this: you get an unlimited number of tries. The only constraining factor is your lifespan. The worst things you can do are: care what other people think, not take risks, fail slowly, give up.

For most of its life, Siri could barely set timers reliably. Now, in iOS 27, I can’t trip it up.

Forcing users to choose how legible they want UI controls to be is wild. Apple's designers should obsess over where this setting belongs and make it the default. macOS/iOS have always been opinionated about these kinds of things. An abstract UI legibility slider is not the way.

The new Siri in iOS 27 is incredible—it works almost flawlessly with even ridiculously complex asks. Well worth the two years of waiting while Apple figured it out. Almost no notes. Both the design and functionality are as good as I could have hoped for.

This is perhaps the most hilariously ugly car they could possibly have designed. Everything about it screams Fisher Price car for adults. It even amplifies the sound of the electric motor into the cabin. It’s like a parody.
