Another app from a co-worker. That link? Yeah it won't work. Why? Because you can't link to tvOS only apps. Clever right? grumbles It's a tic tac toe game, and to find it you search for: “Tac-tics”.

David Sparks: I think the case for a Magic Trackpad 2 upgrade is stronger than it is the Magic Keyboard. The bigger size and easier click at the top are compelling and while Force Touch isn’t all that just yet, I suspect it eventually will be. Funny that the selling points for both devices is […]

Great tvOS game by my co-worker Alex Repty.

Love this little /now page movement. I created my own.

Nat Wagstaff: It feels like the Bullet has been honed and refined, right down to the core essence of what you’d want a ruck to do. All bulk and excess weight didn’t make the cut and you’re left with a product that gives you a refreshing experience. Agreed.

Awesome, I bet it looks great.

It's crazy to me the amount of cool stuff Erin creates on her iPhone. She only ever uses her Mac for writing.

Paul Graham: It seems to be hard for most people to write in spoken language.

I won’t say that I have tried all the wipes out there, but of the ones that I have tried, I like these. They have three things going for them: Cheap Subscribe & Save (auto delivery) They are better than Costco brand. Both my wife and I prefer these to any other wipes we would […]

I finally picked a couple of these up for the family and they are super nice. That’s why I am telling you about them now that picnic season is well over. Hmm. Anyways, I thought the biggest issue would be folding them back up into the little pouch, but that’s no issue. The blanket has […]

Bradley Chambers: For a service I pay for, Evernote had become quite annoying. Instead of making its core features even better, it adding features like Work Chat, and became seriously annoying with notifications about explaining new features….over and over again.

A fantastic backpack, purpose built for digital haulers.

Over on The Syndicate, we published the second part of Nick Keppol’s deep dive on San Francisco — and man did I learn some stuff about the typeface.

Neil Hughes: The only time you should force an app to close is if it becomes unresponsive or erratic. Preach it.

Do the right thing.

Matt Gemmell: That was a shitty thing for me to do, because having a following doesn’t just make patronage work, or let you take creative risks in product monetisation; it’s also a responsibility. Now, that sucks, because you can’t possibly be held accountable for the actions of every sociopath who happened to click the Follow […]

Analytics only give you extra stress, more pressure, and subtly shape what you write. It’s horrible.

Great post, summarizing the irrational attacking of a writer for sharing level-headed criticism. Welch calls out many here who should be ashamed. You absolutely need to read this. If I’m honest, I’m ashamed I did not catch what was going on until it was far too late. I like to think that I could have […]

I've been using Notes.app since I installed the first iOS 9 beta. It's truly good. (Though that texturing and text shadows look hideous.)

Fantastic read.
