I’m on a Zoom whiskey tasting session and the whiskey maker just said “we’ve using worm condensers”. So I tried really hard but nope: can’t taste the condensed worms.

With an ageing population how long before the media’s “30 under 30” lists become “30 with a biological age under 30” list? How long before the ’young entrepreneurs awards’ become ‘young-at-heart awards’? I’m here for it!

Today’s iOS 26 gripe: the Preview icon - why the hell is it a loupe (who under the age of 40 knows what a loupe is?) and why is it on a blue background instead of something neutral (like the grey background of the Find My app it’s next to?). Old man waves fist at sky!

I’m so over “deep insights”. I just don’t have the time. Can’t some of the insights your platform delivers just be shallow? Little ‘insightlets’ would be fine, thank you.

If you possibly can, get a hold of the obituary of Steve Shirley in the 6 Sept issue of The Economist. Incredible life story I’d never heard before. Pioneer of women in tech and autism care.

Well done Apple Store, not allowing me to compare the iPhone 17 Pro to my current 16 Pro. Nothing to see here, move along please

I don’t understand how a company the size of Apple which needs to compete with Microsoft Office, Google Workspace (and now, Canva) can’t do a better job of importing a Word doc with all the formatting intact. Pages is the worst. They’re encouraging me to use Google Docs.

RFKjr: for a guy who supposed to be all about improving the nation’s health he has the most “I am about to die of something undiagnosed” voice I have ever heard in public discourse.
