@dusoft I think it’s just his watch.

@blaise they’re not expensive at all. We’ve had rent control similar to his program, many times. We already have dozens of free markets much larger than the one he proposes. The ferry system is free to Staten Island and our city university used to be; buses are not much larger scale than that, and we’ll save a ton on safety costs. None of this is anywhere near the increase in costs we had from flooding the subways with useless cops.

This Zohran Mamdani video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? It is the blueprint.

Has anybody made a Mac app yet (or an open source script) that lets a Mac emulate being a Switch 2 dock?

@jdavidnet yeah, I agree. It’s just got a whole separate thing than all the prior MK games, alongside the traditional gameplay

Who are the best flat ground Mario Kart World drivers out there right now? I know the speedrunning community will be all over the game, but I’m curious about what folks are doing with the new ways of tricking.

@renchap absolutely!

@jwz I don’t disagree. I’m not averse to antagonistic framing, I’m just generally trying to think affirmatively about what I’m moving *toward* first. That might reveal what I have to destroy if there’s something in my way.

It’s time for something new. So: what do you think I should do next? I want to be of service. https://anildash.com/2025/06/11/time-for-something-new/

@aram hooo boy. I’m so sorry.

Okay, I wrote a little bit about Sly, and about Janet and Prince, and the very first thing I ever blogged about, and how Sly maybe invented some not-small part of the world we live in. And also about the scariest live show I've ever been to. https://www.anildash.com/2025/06/09/sly-stone-scariest-show/

@simon I keep thinking they should have MCP for Shortcuts. Feels like the thing that could fix Apple Intelligence

@so_treu all of this

Imagine how different the Disney parks Star Wars lands would have been if Andor had come out before they built those.

You can just tell something is wrong at Apple, by the way they refuse to join @gruber for his usual The Talk Show event. I know others have pointed this out, but let's just say, I also think it's obvious. Big whoops, Apple.
