If youβre on a Mac, use Safari. It has great privacy protections, and Apple keeps innovating privacy improvements more than any other browser vendor. They recently added anti-fingerprinting and prevent tracking you via social widgets when you donβt interact with them (FB like button, etc)

Indiaβs mobile data price war has taken data charges to crazy low levels. On a short visit, 1 GB of 4G data *a day* cost Β£1.60 for 28 daysβ service. Calling and texting are of course included.
I need Chubby Hubby ice cream.
I have an iPhone 5s test device that is quite zippy with iOS 12.

Coding is easy. Writing complete, useful apps is hard. If someone tells you that they, βcould have written that app in a month,β they either donβt understand the app, know how to code but not how to develop programs, or are just clueless. Ignore them.

If youβre a developer and use Medium - why? Thereβs no shortage of static site generators with beautiful themes (Jekyll, Hugo) and you can publish straight from a commit. Mediumβs becoming a terrible reading experience these days.

As some of you have already figured out, Snapthreadβs amazing new icon was designed by @flarup@twitter.com! A big thanks again to Michael for bringing my concept to life in such a vibrant, elegant way. π―π

The new Snapthread icon is beautiful.

I think itβs unfortunate that in this age of endless information online, and many possibilities for learning, that we still ask people what their level of education is for job applications. I have learned way more in the time since I graduated than I ever did in college, yet this knowledge is somehow less valuable to an employer than someone that learned it in schoolπ€·ββοΈ
Iβve had three iPhones. I donβt upgrade every year. Iβve had the iPhone 4, 5c, and 7. Iβve only had my 7 for a year so I may wait another year to get a new phone. But that XR is super tempting as is the new watch.
The iPhone XR looks amazing. I am torn between Black and Yellow. Iβm leaning toward black. π€ I wonder if I can convince my wife I need to upgrade my phone? π
Does anyone know why the ugly red band around the Apple Watch crown is red? Why not blue or green or purple? It should be the color of the watch.
