Apple Watch unlock on macOS is pretty nice (now that it’s somewhat reliable), but what I’d really like is the reverse: a way to lock the Mac from my watch as I notice an adversary (=my child) is approaching an unlocked computer.

Hey it’s softwareupdate -iaR day!

Today I learned that the iOS Shortcuts app can make SSH connection and run remote scripts as part of a workflow, which opens up for a lot of crazy thing. On a related note, the Pythonista share extension is very cool as well.

After software update-induced reboot, macOS these days logs you in automatically but starts up with the screen locked. Is there a way to invoke this behaviour on-demand? fdesetup authrestart is a different thing.

My Babbage mug from the computer history museum in Mountain View broke again ☹️

Buy or rent?

I’ve been waiting for the AirPod charging case to reach a 100% for an hour now 🤯

Hmm I wonder what happens if I install this on my Mac?

This is some pretty crazy space stuff going on right now
