Decided to do an impromptu trip to the closest Apple Store and demo the Apple Vision Pro. The following are my impressions before, during, and after completing the demo - not edited except to add links from the written/scribbles. Before the Demo Took some time to collect my thoughts around whether the Vision Pro is a “new“ thing or evolution of the Mac. Compared initial, extended view/feel of the Vision Pro to the Studio Display and iMac. Continue reading →

Choose your tools, and conversations, with the whole of human wisdom - not just the noise of the age. Continue reading →

Went to a brunch and didn’t have the NFC ring when it came time to swap contact info. But, due to a recent acquisition, do have a backup in the form of a QR code that’s on an NFC business card. However, things weren’t as polished coming from the business card as they are coming from the ring. So, after doing a little bit of cleanup work with the service that’s behind the QR code (MyTTag) once that brunch was over, am feeling a lot more comfortable with using the business card in a pinch.

The other week, posted a review of what has been an enjoyable and contemplative year. From the fractional executive work to the experiments to the incredible layers of reading, it has been an absolutely thick and enjoyable 2023. One last collection of links to close out the year, some contemplation about situational awareness, and what it may be going forward. Platforms are looking to the Internet as something that is stable and mostly self sustaining. Continue reading →
