Reading about the updates in Mac OS Sequoia. What I find most irritable with OS X that when I connect my Macbook Air to my dock and external monitor the dock does not appear at the bottom of the monitor screen. I don't have my Macbook side by side with the monitor, but rather below so the external monitor is above the internal monitor and it seems OS X really doesn't know what to do about that. #
The main reason why I have invested in and use Google's hardware, mostly phones running Android, all these years is that I believe the idea of "organizing the world's information" best aligns to how I think about personal computing. Years ago I wrote about these ideas and how I saw the emergence of smartphones and tablets as the true, real, personal computing moment. I defined personal computing as hardware + software (apps) + Internet + intelligence and believed then that Google was closest to meeting this definition with what was emerging as Google Assistant. I think now that Apple's description and implementation of Apple Intelligence is closer to actualizing what I imagined back then. #
