WWDC 2023 – Day 1 – Platform State of the Union
Time to get into the details… Ok, this is a just a post of my raw notes, no real analysis. I am looking forward to starting all the sessions tomorrow. But tonight I still have to watch the Design Awards.
WWDC 2023 – Day 1 – So far living up to my hopes
Love the intro animation, very trippy… Good morning! 15th Anniversary of the App Store, which changed everything. Nice to start the discussion with Developers. Time for some breakthrough experiences. Over to John to talk about the Mac. (Interior shot) Software platform time… (Craig)
Looking forward to WWDC 2023
Tomorrow is the start of WWDC 2023, and the rumors are all coalescing around the idea of the Apple Headset. It’s been 9 years since I tried on, and ultimately bought, Google Glass, so the promise of an Apple headset is more than exciting to me. While people are complaining about a rumored price of […]
XROS Thought – Eyes
Last night, while I was trying to doze off, I started thinking thru the expected announcement of Apple’s VR Headset. I had read the rumor that one item that Apple was going to do is give people the ability to see the users eye, by having a screen on the outside. This way when you […]

Today I took a step back and made changes to better handle the needs of larger devices. Ultimately the code is pretty […]
Wasted Time Update – Removing Twitter
Well, I’ve been looking at adding Mastodon support to Wasted Time since removing support for twitter a few months back. I was talking to my good friend and podcast co-host @andypiper about this yesterday, and he asked why. I thought about it long and hard. While back in the twitter days I used this for […]
Completed two major classes
I like learning. It’s that simple. I like to take classes, learn new things, read about new things, and play with new things. It’s one of the reasons I think I like being in technology, there are always new things to learn. Early last year I decided to start the class 100 Day of Swift […]
Updated my Watch and wow!
Last Monday Apple released the first software update for the new version of WatchOS (version 9.1). The big thing that was promised was an improved Low-Power mode for the ultra giving it at least 60 hours of continuous use. Of course, I had to test it. Wednesday morning I put it on my wrist and […]
