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.

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.
