Join me on my journey as I share my insights and experiences on all things Apple, Business and Entrepreneurship!
LibrePods is interesting because it turns AirPods into an interoperability question: what happens when open-source software implements Apple's private AirPods protocol so Android and Linux users can reach features normally reserved for Apple's ecosystem?
Mac Performance Monitor belongs in the Mac admin toolbox because it records local performance history, helps Help Desk review slow-Mac reports after the moment has passed, and keeps process telemetry on the Mac instead of sending it to a cloud service.
Apple’s WWDC26 special presentation on Apple Intelligence and Xcode was less about adding a chat box to developer tools and more about making AI part of the platform boundary.
