Two more 27.0 design grumbles

from anderegg.ca [alt+shift+b] in technology

After living with Apple’s 27.0 OSs since launch, I have some more annoyances to get off my chest. This time, it’s all about how tabs and menus have gotten worse. I’ve already ranted about the Liquid Glass material in general, but these two design changes in particular have really...

The Talk Show Timeline

I really enjoy John Gruber’s podcast The Talk Show. However, I’ve noticed that it’s been a while since it was in my feed. I decided to chart previous episode dates to check some of my assumptions about release frequency. Cutting to the chase, here’s a link to The Talk Show...

I mostly use my web stats service because I get a lizard-brain kick from watching numbers go up, but it also provides some fun insights. For example, it’s how I found out about bubbles.town. At first I thought this might be a Mastodon instance. I get a lot of referral traffic...

An infuriating goodbye to Photoshop

12th Jul 2026
I’ve been using Photoshop since the mid-90s. First at school, with Photoshop 3, then through work. I bought my first boxed copy of CS2 in 2005, then upgraded to CS5 in 2010. I subscribed to Photoshop Creative Cloud on day one. Today, I uninstalled it. I hope I never have to use...

Thoughts ahead of WWDC 2026

from anderegg.ca [alt+shift+b] in technology

7th Jun 2026
I’ve been following Apple news and rumours since the year 2000, and I don’t think I’ve ever been less excited for WWDC. Apple’s software story is in rough shape, and I worry that this year’s event won’t do much to help. Perhaps it’ll be the beginning of an upswing, but we’ve got...

AI and software security: the slop is now signal

10th May 2026
No matter how you feel about AI, it’s changing the world of software. The “T” in ChatGPT was invented to improve language translation, and large language models (LLMs) are very good at this. Interestingly, translating between French and Japanese is effectively the same as...

Apple at 50: My journey to the Mac

from anderegg.ca [alt+shift+b] in technology

1st Apr 2026
Growing up, I hated Apple the way only an arrogant teenager could. Who in their right mind would buy an overpriced toy instead of a “real computer”? Here’s how I switched to the Mac, and haven’t looked back… despite some recent reservations. My family’s first real computer was a...

Liquid Glass updates in 26.4

from anderegg.ca [alt+shift+b] in technology

29th Mar 2026
Apple recently updated all their OSs to 26.4, and there were plenty of Liquid Glass updates. Most of them of the better! Here are some of the changes that stood out to me, as well as a bit more grumbling about Liquid Glass in general (sorry). When I last wrote about Liquid Glass,...

Reckoning with Liquid Glass

from anderegg.ca [alt+shift+b] in technology

20th Jan 2026
When Apple released its new operating systems last year, I wasn’t in a hurry to upgrade. I had initially come away from WWDC 2025 excited about the new Liquid Glass design language, but then became grumpy. The visual effects looked nice to me, but they functioned more poorly than...

Bye Bye Alan Dye

5th Dec 2025
I was trying to get something down about Alan Dye leaving Apple, but John Gruber got there first and has done a much better job. I’ve grumbled several times in the past about the new Liquid Glass redesign, but it’s just the latest push in a direction I’ve been unhappy with for...
