Anyone have an estimate as to how long this should last? It’s been like this for about 24 hours now. To be fair it hasn’t always been plugged into power.

One of the features on iPhone 16 Pro that impressed me the most? Not Apple Intelligence, not camera control, not standby mode. But rather hearing my morning alarm loop in a 4 bar tempo correctly in time rather than cutting out for a second before repeating like on my old 12 pro. Truly magical.

  1. Buy new iPhone 16 Pro.
  2. Buy Apple Magsafe silicone case for said iPhone.
  3. Buy Belkin 2 in 1 Qi2 charger.
  4. (Last step and this is critical!) Look up difference between Magsafe and Qi2.

It only makes sense to do the research AFTER the purchases.

Tried out the free (!) ElevenLabs app. For an absolutely free app (no subscriptions), it’s pretty slick. You can link to a news article and have it read to you in your favorite AI voice, or try out the new podcast tool where the article is summarized in podcast form.

It’s the beginning of the end for landline phone service.

Today’s unnecessary program:

var random = new Random();
var outputNum = random.Next(1, 1001);
Console.WriteLine(outputNum);
while (outputNum > 1)
{
	if (outputNum % 2 != 0)
	{
		outputNum++;
		Console.WriteLine(outputNum);
	}
	outputNum = outputNum / 2;
	Console.WriteLine(outputNum);
}

I’m happy to have been completely oblivious to Honey’s existence and to have always just searched coupon codes manually on the web. Like an animal.

Today’s unnecessary program:

for (var pow = 0; pow <= 21; pow++)
{
    for (var i = 1; i <= 9; i++)
    {
        var num = i * Math.Pow(10, pow);
        Console.WriteLine(num.ToString("N0"));
    }
}
