Sorry, “Core Ultra 200V” as Intel is calling it. Anyway, these chips are seemingly Intel’s “thin and light” chips and not for their larger, more powerful applications, as evidenced by the fact that you’re limited to 8 cores and 32GB of RAM. There are people out there who really think that Intel’s got something here, and it would seem that they’re decently right. It’s refreshing to see at least something interesting from Intel since Apple broke up with them and started releasing the Apple Silicon chips, but I think Intel is simultaneously shooting themselves in the foot with this release.

I really like the app, I was really excited for it to come out just over a year ago, I followed all of the reporting around it. I want it to be better, but I feel like Instagram is going to have it save Threads from itself in order for things to improve.

I first got my 15″ MacBook Air M2 about a year ago so I figured I would give you my thoughts on the laptop after 1 year of use from everything to being a full time student to creative tasks to full-scale development.

Over the years, people have often considered apps and websites to be two totally different things. In some cases they certainly are, but in other cases they can be one in the same for the most part.

So I don’t really have a set plan for this post, I’ve usually at least got some notes that I like to go off when writing these articles, but this one is going to be off the cuff. For this post I want to talk about this concept of a “digital home” that I’ve been thinking about for a while.

Apple originally released their Sports app back in February of 2024 after it had been rumored a bit, but there was no real enthusiasm behind it. Safe to say this app came out to a rather…confused audience. Nobody was really sure why the app was created; it kinda took some stuff out of the News and TV apps, but also not really.

So I’ve never been very interested in Android as a platform (this may not surprise many of you). Honestly I find this rather odd, because I really like to have a hand in as many platforms as possible (I have a Mac, an iPad, a Windows PC, and a Linux machine (Pop!_OS, of course)). I also have an Xbox (no Playstation, though). The point being: I like to try out a ton of different tech, but I haven’t been as interested in Android as a platform personally.

Apple’s earnings for the past quarter came out and they posted revenue of over $85 Billion, up 5% from this time last year. Wanna know why? A 25% growth in iPad sales.

A lot of the tech community knows quite a bit about tech, but not everyone out here is a developer. Not everyone knows what’s actually going on behind the scenes (even some that think they do). I’ve been going through a lot of training to develop on Apple’s platforms (just recently I became a certified Swift Developer), so I figured I would go through and talk about all of the resources I’ve utilized from Apple to be able to do all of this.

In today’s world we have some kind of login information for just about every site we visit frequently. From our email accounts, banking accounts, credit card accounts and so much more. It can be tough to memorize each and every password for each different site, especially since it’s never recommended to use the same password for more than one site.
