I feel like someone had this holstered for like 10 years just waiting for the timing to be right. And I applaud 👏 them.

“They have worked hard, in good faith, to defend the interests of Canadians throughout these negotiations up until the very last minute. However, last-minute changes in the U.S. proposed terms were unfair, uneconomic, and called into question the reliability of any deal,” — PM Mark Carney

Shocked. They seemed so reliable up to this point. 🙃 www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

Ford has rehired hundreds of senior engineers after replacing them with AI backfired and has cost the company billions of dollars. AI adoption is blamed for Ford being the most recalled automaker in the U.S. with 51 recalls covering over 11 million vehicles in the first half of 2026 alone.

WWDC26: A Look at macOS Golden Gate’s App Icons https://512pixels.net/2026/06/wwdc26-golden-gate-app-icons/

512pixels.netWWDC26: A Look at macOS Golden Gate’s App IconsBasic Apple Guy: One of the first things I noticed after installing the macOS Golden Gate beta was the updated icon design. The colours are much bolder, several icons have been adjusted, and the refraction in the Liquid Glass effect has changed significantly, especially in icons like Journal. There’s also a noticeable sharpness to the icons, along with a flattening of the Liquid Glass effect. I’m not sure yet whether this is simply an early-beta artifact or the intended final look. For example, while I really like the redesigned Finder icon, the sharp black edges around the nose currently feel a little unrefined.

I really don’t enjoy hearing how my job is going to be obsolete very soon. It creates fear and anxiety. Irrespective of whether I think this is actually true. I don’t know how things will end up. I actually hope a lot is the AI pundits are mostly wrong. That future doesn’t excite me in the least.

Tomorrow should be interesting. Polymarket has 2 of the 3 by-elections being slam-dunks for the Liberals, while giving them a less than 2/3 chance of winning Terrebonne. Not quite a coin flip, but it should be a nailbiter.

That’s an interesting framing. How’s that actually a thing?

President Trump’s tactic of escalating his rhetoric to astronomical levels helped him find an offramp with Iran. But it resolved none of the fundamental issues that led to the war.

nyti.msTrump Backs Down, but Questions Remain Over Iran and the Strait of HormuzPresident Trump’s short-term intimidation may have worked, but the fundamental divides with Iran are as sharp as they were in February.
