We’re hiring in the tvOS Engineering group at Apple. Real programmers really writing real code.
This one is in the same group, has the same generic job description, but is a different role number than the previous one. I can’t tell you why they’re different, it’s a secret.

A third of our fellow Americans support the murder of “a whole civilization.. never to be brought back again.” Some because they are enthralled by a fascist leader, some because they are fundamentally bigoted and racist, and some because they think that bringing on a man-made apocalypse will bring the End Times and their eternal salvation.
They are all fucking insane.
This is an apocalypse of choice.
I see something in the video backdrop of this still from McCartney’s set at Apple Park last Tuesday, do you?
On the one hand it’s amazing how little time it takes to travel 250,000 miles to the Moon. Two solid weeks of supersonic air travel can be done in two days in space.
On the other hand the Moon is really really really close. Mars is seven to ten months from Earth when they’re close to each other, and that’s once every other year for a couple months.
Proxima Centauri is further. A one-way trip at Artemis speed would take 100,000 years, as long as it’s been since Homo sapiens left Africa.
Stopping By The Wendy’s On A Snowy Evening
Has a Defense Secretary ever been fragged by his own men? Asking for historical reference
Did he just post “Allahu Akbar”?
Schrödinger’s War is simultaneously escalating, complete, winding down, and not actually a war
Note to self: chop wood, carry water.
As Easter approaches, Pope Leo XIV reminded people that Jesus Christ spurns the prayers of those whose “hands are full of blood,” citing the prophet Isaiah.
In contrast, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth prayed that the military would use “overwhelming violence” in Iran during his first Pentagon Christian worship service since the war began.
We have known for a while that there is no bottom. It’s been increasingly clear since January 2025 that there are no guardrails. And with the last social post it should be abundantly clear that there is no filter. It’s direct from id to action.
Everybody who suffered negative job actions for commenting on the death of a private citizen should use the President’s statement on the death of a notable Government official as evidence in an appeal

They told us this would happen if we voted for Harris
From the unprovoked and illegal attack, to the mass civilian casualties, to the decapitation strikes, to the assassination of the peace negotiators, to the sinking of an unarmed ship thousands of miles from the engagement, this is the most immoral and unlawful American war in (checks notes) 23 years
Usually there’s only one Occam’s Razor answer to a given question but we have so, so many:
• For the oil, duh
• Distraction from the Epstein files
• Corollary: Blackmail by Netanyahu about same
• Pretext to cancel the midterm elections
• Orders from oil executives
• Orders from apocalyptic Christian nationalist zillionaires
• Bizarre dementia-enhanced grudge from 1980
The great linguist George Lakoff, author of the book that shaped Mac user interface design Metaphors We Live By and the book that influenced object-oriented programming Women, Fire, and Dangerous Things, as well as the best book about poetry ever More Than Cool Reason, is now on Mastodon @georgelakoff@sfba.social
DHS is now defunded. Maybe it should stay that way.
The Bad Bunny performance promoted the woke values of (check notes) respect for one’s elders, the joy of music and dance, rural agrarianism, and pride in one’s heritage.
I just want to remind you that in 1992, the Internet cost $2.50 an hour to access ($4.00 after the first four hours a night), was three million times slower than WiFi, and nobody in your house could take phone calls while you used it. Doomscroll on THAT.
Tired: “Epstein was a major financier with an unfortunate fixation on young women”
Wired: “Epstein was an extortionist who trafficked women to blackmail unwitting billionaires to invest in his funds”
Inspired: “Epstein was a sex trafficker with billionaires, princes, and politicians as clients”
So, to summarize, the Left turned out an estimated 5 million Americans in peaceful parades in support of basic Constitutional values, well-organized with no incidents, while the Right had a rinky-dink parade sponsored by Palantir and Coinbase and blink-and-you’ll-miss-it fireworks show for a crowd of hundreds, drove cars through crowds, and assassinated a state Senator
