Mark Drummond spent his Apple years building the character intelligence team behind Apple Vision Pro, working with Marvel and Jon Favreau to figure out how Hollywood IP could come to life in AR. Now, at his startup Pixee, he's making the opposite bet: forget the headset, the iPhone is the better device for bringing characters into people's lives. Mark walks Charlie and Ted through Pixee's vision — send a licensed character like Elsa to sing happy birthday through iMessage, no app required — and the underlying tech that makes it possible, including an engine built with Claude that replaced Unreal and cut compile times from an hour to seven minutes. The conversation goes deep on the Apple Vision Pro's real tradeoffs, the neurobiology of why the headset can feel exhausting after an hour, and why Mark thinks Apple's rumored "spectacles" will quietly inherit lessons from AVP's failures.The news segment covers a big week of Big Tech earnings — Microsoft and Amazon soaring on cloud and ad growth, Meta and Apple taking hits — plus Anthropic's disclosure that its frontier AI models were used in real-world hacks, an AI-run vending machine experiment that lied to customers about refunds, the new ban on Chinese humanoid robot imports, and the growing backlash against AI smart glasses with outward-facing cameras.Key Moments: [01:35] Big Tech earnings and market winners/losers [06:35] AI models behind real-world hacks [09:35] Smart glasses and the "Glasshole" effect [17:35] Mark Drummond joins — Pixee's origin story [24:35] Apple Vision Pro history — what went wrong [41:35] Headset vs. phone: the case for AR on iPhone [50:35] Funding, protections, and the CDE philosophyBrought to you by Zappar and Mattercraft, the leading visual development environment for immersive 3D web experiences.

In this episode of the AppleVis Extra podcast, David Nason is joined by Ashley Cox, a blind software developer who is building native apps for Apple's platforms with a strong focus on accessibility, usability, and thoughtful design.Ashley shares his journey into software development—from teaching himself HTML in the early days of the web to developing sophisticated Swift applications for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Apple Vision Pro. Along the way, he discusses how personal needs often inspire his projects and why creating software for yourself can lead to better experiences for everyone.The conversation takes an in-depth look at Simulcast, Ashley's upcoming podcast application that combines podcast playback, internet radio, Apple Music integration, iCloud syncing, Siri support, and a host of accessibility-focused features into one native Apple experience. Ashley also discusses two additional projects currently in development: Levelly, a precision spirit level for iPhone; and Audit, a modern single-track audio editor designed specifically for macOS.David and Ashley also explore:Learning Swift as a blind developerWhy native apps still matterCross-platform versus native developmentBuilding accessible interfaces from the ground upVoiceOver customization, rotor support, and real-world testingWorking with hundreds of beta testersUsing Apple APIs such as Siri, Apple Intelligence, ShazamKit, and iCloudThe realities—and frustrations—of publishing software on the App StorePricing apps without relying solely on subscriptionsHow AI is changing modern software developmentWhy blind developers bring unique perspectives to software designWhether you're interested in Apple development, accessibility, podcast apps, or hearing from developers within the blind community, this conversation offers an honest look behind the scenes of modern app development and the passion required to bring quality software to life.Resources & Links:Ashley CoxThe Blind Man's WorkshopAppleVis discussion: Seeking Testers for my new iOS and macOS Podcast AppIf you're interested in following the development of Simulcast, joining the beta, or reading feedback from early testers, be sure to visit the AppleVis discussion thread linked above.

Roberto and Jon are back for another relaxed unscripted conversation, beginning with Jon's ongoing battle with Nissan and the frustrations of modern customer service before moving onto some much happier news.Roberto shares the early success of his new Arsenal Women: Trailblazers podcast, which is rapidly approaching 500 downloads in its first month and already attracting listeners from across Europe, North America, South America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Australia. The pair also explain some of the behind-the-scenes changes coming to Tailoring Talk Magazine as they work towards a more consistent and recognisable format for the show. The conversation then turns into a deep dive on Apple's latest public beta. Roberto shares his first impressions of the new Siri, Apple Intelligence, on-device AI, image generation, natural language search, and why this feels like the first version of Siri that genuinely gets out of your way instead of creating more friction. Jon and Roberto also discuss whether Apple's AI could replace ChatGPT for everyday users, what still separates dedicated AI models from Apple's approach, and why the improvements feel more evolutionary than revolutionary. Elsewhere they discuss David Pogue's new book Apple: The First 50 Years, Steve Jobs, Apple's remarkable business story, the colourful iMac G3 era, and why understanding Apple's history is valuable whether you're interested in technology or simply fascinated by great companies. The second half of the episode wanders through James Bond, tailoring, watches, gaming, Half-Life 2, Robocop, Telltale Games, Billy Eilish's new concert film, Apple Vision Pro, Netflix recommendations, and Roberto's ambitious new series exploring the costume and wardrobe of every official James Bond film, before finishing with an increasingly ridiculous discussion about making their own ultra-low-budget Bond film starring Roberto, Jon and Alex.It's another classic Tailoring Talk conversation covering technology, AI, Apple, gaming, business, James Bond, menswear, filmmaking, books and the creative projects currently keeping Roberto and Jon busy.Timestamps00:00 - Jon's Nissan saga and the importance of good customer serviccandidse03:00 - Arsenal Women: Trailblazers reaches nearly 500 downloads07:20 - Living with Apple's new Siri and iOS 27 public beta14:20 - Can Apple's AI replace ChatGPT for everyday users?25:30 - Apple: The First 50 Years and the business lessons from Apple's history34:00 - James Bond, tailoring and Roberto's new Bond wardrobe series42:40 - Gaming, Billy Eilish, Apple Vision Pro and making our own Bond film Hosted on Acast.

PHP Podcast – July 16, 2026 Hosts: Joe Ferguson, Sara Golemon, and Holly Schilling Joe hosts with Sarah and Holly while running on no sleep. The PHP Tech 2027 CFP opens, a fake PHP 9 pitch appears, we crown Holly the accidental main character of internals, and everyone agrees dark mode flashing white is a war crime. PHP Tech 2027 CFP Is Open (And Yes, the Year Is Right This Time) The big news kicking off the show is that the PHP Tech CFP for 2027 is live and open. You can find it over at Sessionize under php-tech-2027, and unlike a certain demo from the previous week, the date on it is actually correct. There was a brief moment where it displayed 2007, but the team fixed that rather quickly, so credit where credit is due. The crew marveled at the fact that we are somehow less than six months out from 2027, which spiraled into a conversation about kids getting learner’s permits, full beards showing up on children who were toddlers just yesterday, and whether anyone’s offspring might actually submit a talk. Helldivers came up. Freedom was spread. And there was a gentle suggestion that SoCalKid and their newly engaged fiancé should be sent the CFP URL immediately. Meanwhile, PHP Tech 2026 videos are rolling out on PHP Tech TV. There are currently 37 available with more still processing thanks to some technical and room issues at the event. Several talks are completely free, including Joe’s talk on modernizing DevOps, Kaylin’s “Modernize Your Old School Endpoints with HTMX,” and both of Ben Ramsey’s talks. Working Groups, Discord, and the People Who Actually Care The conversation turned to the internals process and Ben Ramsey’s working group proposal on the internals mailing list, which the crew encouraged everyone to actually read. The idea of giving working groups some autonomy and even decision-making power drew broad agreement as a way to produce more fully-fleshed RFCs rather than one person’s implementation of a giant feature. A recurring point of confusion is the reference to “Discord conversations” in RFCs. There is no official PHP.net Discord, but phpc.chat will get you to the Discord (and previously the bridged IRC). The PHP Internals channel is where a lot of discussion happens, though far from the only place, and there are also the PHP Foundation and new Foundation Ambassadors channels. Big appreciation went out to the moderators keeping that Discord spam-free and troll-free, with a special shout to Tiffany, who is an absolute machine at helping people, pointing them in the right direction, and posting top-tier cat pictures in the pet flexing channel. The recurring theme: decisions are made by the people who show up. Silence is acquiescence, and if you have issues, speak up. Holly famously just showed up in internals one day, started talking, and they let her stay. This Week in Internals and the Co-Scientist Show Joe wanted to highlight Artisan Build’s YouTube channel, specifically their “This Week in Internals” videos. They are fantastic recaps of what’s happening in the internals world, complete with a very light sprinkling of extremely dry comedic timing that lands perfectly. The videos break down email threads and RFCs into easily digestible summaries of what people are arguing over, then poke a little fun at the sillier arguments. A weekly recap drops regularly and it’s consistently great content for anyone curious about internals. The crew was also impressed by the host’s ability to nail every name pronunciation on what seems like the first try, which spiraled into Holly’s confession that she has a hard memory limit on names learned after kindergarten. Anyone new is simply “out of bounds.” Holly’s Fake PHP 9 Pitch: Structs, Modules, and Surfaces Holly walked through a blog post on eventuallywrong.com featuring a fake PHP 9 pitch full of flagship features she’s prototyped. It kicked off with extensions, which she discovered didn’t exist while trying to build the Longhorn app in native PHP, landing her at the top of that internals video. Next came structs, which started as an attempt to build tuples (turns out full structs were easier). They’re Swift-style value types with strong typing, and after some grumbling at Larry, she reworked things to support interfaces and traits, leaning into composition over inheritance. Modules got the PHP-style treatment: a simple module definition, a public interface declaration, and a new `internal` visibility level that lets members be accessed within the same module. No autoloader modifications required, and reflection remains the escape hatch as always. Finally, surfaces — a keyword that adds a perpendicular-to-visibility scope. A method can belong to a surface, and callers simply declare they want to use that surface of the class. Holly performance-tested it: no impact if unused, minimal impact if used. She also spent a good chunk of the show against friend classes, arguing they’re leaky, unrestricted, and if you’re going to hand out full access to your privates, you shouldn’t have marked them private in the first place. Release Management, Version Stats, and Upgrade Paths Holly is a first-time PHP 8.6 release manager alongside Matteo Beccati, with veteran Daniel Scherzer (also on 8.5) rounding out the team. She stepped down from RM in a prior election because others wanted the work — a reminder that people stepping up in open source is a rarity worth celebrating. Release management, she noted, is less a social job and more about moving data at the right time and signing things. The July 2026 PHP version stats got a thumbs up. Looking at the trends, 8.5 is clearly on the rise, 8.4 climbing slightly, 8.3 starting to trend down, and 8.2 falling harder — exactly the curve you want, with the vast majority sitting inside the support window. Joe shared that upgrading apps from PHP 7 to 8.3/8.4/8.5 has been a much easier lift than the older 7.x hops, thanks to a more consistent release cadence and better deprecation guidance. Holly pushed back on the idea that 5.6-to-7 was ever hard, while Joe pointed out the real pain came from jumping ancient 5.0/5.1 codebases straight to 7 back before Claude existed. There was also a very in-depth debugging tangent about an opcache build flag no longer being needed on 8.5. Accessibility, Dark Mode Crimes, and the JetBrains Survey The JetBrains State of PHP survey is open, and everyone should go take it — there’s even a chance to win one of five vouchers. This led to a discussion about whether JetBrains usage is being decimated by AI tooling, with Holly living almost entirely in the terminal with Claude Code these days while Joe remains loyal to PHPStorm and PyCharm. Sarah, who is going blind and is not joking about it, kicked off a passionate segment on accessibility. Test your apps with a screen reader. Respect font scaling and contrast (F0F0F0 text on white is a genuine crime). Respect the OS toggles for reduced motion, because autistic users and others depend on them and apps routinely ignore them. The crew then united around dark mode etiquette: the only reasonable default is system-selected, and the white flash between two dark-mode pages is caused by JavaScript-based theme switching instead of sane CSS selectors. It is, universally agreed, the worst. The episode closed on eye-tracking privacy (Apple Vision Pro good, Oculus terrifying), heat maps, and a laptop-camera-covering tangent that got appropriately unhinged before Joe called it on that bombshell.

The discussion with Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Eric Bolden, Jim Rea, and Marty Jencius also covers premature Siri-versus-Gemini comparisons, Apple's legal battles with Epic Games and John Prosser, Bending Spoons' growing technology portfolio, prediction-market manipulation, Spotify streaming fraud, and musicians' dissatisfaction with the service.

Danny is an independent researcher. He is the founder of Code of Reality (COR), an interdisciplinary initiative that explores what he calls Cognitive Physics: the fertile territory where mind and matter meet. He is essentially asking, "what is the physics of cognition?". COR convenes scientists, philosophers, technologists, and indigenous wisdom-keepers in collaborative investigations designed to blur the line between observer and observed. By fostering dialogue across disciplines normally siloed from one another, COR serves as both a research hub and a cultural bridge, advancing a holistic science of consciousness that can thrive alongside mainstream physics.

En el Manzanas Informadas de hoy repasamos dos movimientos de Apple que apuntan a una misma idea: controlar mejor sus próximos pasos en hardware.Primero, hablamos del futuro A20 Pro del iPhone 18 Pro y de una posible configuración de memoria con más ancho de banda, pensada para IA local, rendimiento sostenido y eficiencia. También repasamos la información sobre ChangXin Memory Technologies y el intento de Apple de ganar margen frente a la subida de precios de memoria.Después miramos al Apple Vision Pro, al supuesto panel G-VR de Samsung Display y a lo complicado que puede ser crear una versión más asequible sin perder aquello que hace especial al producto.Como siempre, con prudencia: hablamos de filtraciones, informes de proveedores y movimientos de cadena de suministro, no de anuncios oficiales de Apple.Redes y enlacesWeb: manzanasenfrentadas.esBluesky: @menfrentadas.bsky.socialX: @MEnfrentadasMastodon: @ManzanasEnfrentadas@mas.toThreads: @manzanasenfrentadasTikTok: @manzanasenfrentadasTelegram: @manzanasenfrentadasLa música utilizada en este episodio procede de FiftySounds: “Helado de Cereza Loop 1”.

I interviewed Nathan Fairchild about Ganek Immersive Studio at USC's School of Cinematic Arts on Thursday, June 18, 2026 at Augmented World Expo in Long Beach, California. Fairchild was at AWE showing off some student projects of Immersive Video, and I really quite enjoyed the hyperstylized, fever dream of Elevator by LILLETH who is coming from an immersive theatre background. Ori Inbar had mentioned how immersive video was one of the sectors that was growing within his opening keynote. The Apple Vision Pro has helped to revitalize interest in the more cinematic 180-degree forms, but also for XR as a screen replacement and more immersive way to experience cinematic content.

The episode begins with a look at Apple's latest beta releases for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS, along with a strong recommendation to install the recently released 26.5.2 updates due to the significant number of critical security fixes affecting multiple Apple platforms. The panel also discusses Apple's ongoing iOS 27 development, highlighting improvements coming to Maps, Mail search, copy-and-paste functionality, and new Apple Intelligence features available to iCloud+ subscribers. A major focus is Apple's continued investment in professional creative tools. The panel explores new AI-powered features arriving in Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, discussing how these updates streamline creative workflows while making Apple's software ecosystem even more attractive for content creators and professionals. The conversation then shifts to artificial intelligence as Google introduces Gemini Spark for macOS. The panel examines its ability to automate local file workflows while debating privacy implications and comparing Google's approach with Apple Intelligence, ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI assistants currently available to Mac users. Apple Notes receives its own spotlight as everyone shares practical ways they use the app for shopping lists, recipes, class preparation, secure notes, voice capture, and daily organization. The upcoming ability to create links directly to sections within Notes sparks discussion about how power users can better organize lengthy documents and create more navigable notebooks. Security remains a recurring theme throughout the episode. The panel discusses the recently disclosed Hide My Email vulnerability that could potentially expose users' real email addresses, along with newly discovered AirDrop security issues affecting nearby file sharing. They emphasize keeping devices updated, limiting AirDrop availability in public settings, and following good security practices to reduce potential risks. The hardware discussion turns to the iPhone 17 Pro, where the panel examines new camera capabilities including clean HDMI output through Final Cut Camera, making the device an even more capable tool for professional video production and content creation. HomeKit also gets attention as the group shares automation ideas, smart home best practices, and experiences with HomeKit-compatible accessories, including a Meross smart power strip capable of individually controlling outlets and USB ports. Jeff Gamet offers additional automation tips for improving everyday smart home reliability. Additional Apple news includes Apple's acquisition of Play, the SwiftUI prototyping application, speculation about how its technology may enhance Apple's developer tools, new Apple Arcade game releases, American Express Membership Rewards integration with Apple Pay, and expanded availability of Anthropic's latest Claude AI model. The episode wraps up with another entertaining edition of Things Found, where the panel shares favorite apps, accessories, creative tools, and gadgets they've recently discovered, before closing with excitement about the upcoming MacStock conference and the opportunity to connect with fellow Apple enthusiasts in person.

Apple vuelve a estar en el centro de la polémica. La crisis de memorias, la presión sobre proveedores chinos, las restricciones políticas de Estados Unidos y los nuevos rumores del iPhone 18 Pro y del posible iPhone Ultra plegable están formando una tormenta perfecta.En este episodio de APPLEaks, analizamos por qué Apple podría estar preparando una subida de precios mucho más grande de lo esperado, qué papel juega Tim Cook en esta estrategia y por qué algunos aumentos parecen ir mucho más allá del impacto real de los componentes.También hablamos del futuro del iPhone 18 Pro, sus posibles mejoras internas, el nuevo sistema térmico, el procesador de 2 nanómetros, las cámaras con apertura variable y el precio que podría empezar hasta 200 dólares más arriba.Además, repasamos el estado del iPhone Ultra plegable, su posible llegada en septiembre y el riesgo de que sea uno de los productos más caros de la historia reciente de Apple. Y como si eso fuera poco, Apple acaba de perder a una figura clave detrás del Vision Pro y las futuras gafas inteligentes, que se va a OpenAI. Una noticia que puede impactar directamente en la estrategia de realidad aumentada e inteligencia artificial de la compañía.¿Apple está subiendo precios por necesidad real o está usando la crisis para forzar una solución política?Te cuento mi análisis completo.00:00 Intro: Apple y una crisis que se complica00:59 La crisis de memorias y el impacto en los precios02:19 ¿Apple está buscando una solución política?05:36 Vision Pro, gafas inteligentes y una salida clave hacia OpenAI06:48 iPhone 18 Pro: rumores, mejoras y subida de precio08:10 iPhone Ultra plegable: producción, precio y dudas09:08 ¿Perderá valor el iPhone plegable como los Samsung y Pixel?10:00 El cierre: ventas, precios y el futuro de Apple.Apple, iPhone 18, iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone Ultra, Apple Leaks, Tim Cook, subida precios Apple, iPhone plegable, Apple Vision Pro, OpenAI, memorias iPhone, crisis Apple, iPhone 2026, rumores Apple, Apple Intelligence, Apple gafas inteligentes, idearVlog, APPLEaks #Apple #iPhone18 #iPhoneUltra #TimCook #APPLEaks #iPhonePlegable #AppleVisionPro #OpenAI #AppleLeaks #idearVlog

Ever triggered a hidden Mac feature by accident? This week you’ll find out why a stray backtick fires up the Magnifier in macOS Preview, and how a single screenshot plus built-in OCR can lift text straight out of an image (even if that Wi-Fi password still refuses to cooperate). You’ll grab the trick for sharing your network as a scannable QR code from the Passwords app, learn why YouTube TV blocks video over screen sharing in Chrome while Safari sidesteps it, and untangle guest-mode quirks on Apple Vision Pro. From Touch ID suddenly demanding your password to a backup SSD that swears it’s still In Use, you’ll walk away with the Terminal commands and fixes to set things right. Then you’ll map your next move off a MacBook Air, weighing an M4 Mac mini against an iMac and stalking the refurb store for the right deal. You’ll set HomeKit lights to fade in with sunrise, audit your Tailscale network for sloppy permissions, breathe easier with a tested air purifier, and give that retired iPad a whole second life. And when something mysteriously stops working, Don’t Get Caught burning two hours blaming software for what turns out to be a cable you quietly swapped out: check your cables first. Hit play, load up on tips, and head into your week a little geekier. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1147 for Monday, June 22nd, 2026 00:03:35 June 22nd: National Onion Ring Day MGG Monthly Giveaway – Win a license to SaneBox Quick Tips 00:00:01 Susan-QT-macOS Preview has a magnifier in Tools > Show Magnifier 00:03:53 Use the backtick to invoke Magnifier in Preview 00:06:15 Dave-QT-Take a picture or screenshot to OCR text within an image 00:11:32 YouTube TV doesn't allow video when the screen is being shared…in Chrome …But Safari might let it (it certainly does with Fubo) 00:13:29 Screen Mirroring vs. Apple Vision Pro 00:15:21 QT-KiwiGraham-Passwords app allows you to show a QR code of current wifi network 00:17:31 Bill-1146-Why not use the Apple TV app’s download abilities?

Ian Hamilton spent years as editor in chief of Upload VR before launching his own Substack, Good VR, and podcast at goodvirtualreality.com. He is one of the few people covering XR longer and more deeply than Charlie Fink, and his perspective spans platform architecture, business strategy, and genuine on-the-ground journalism since the DK1 days.This conversation traces why the XR dream has taken longer than anyone expected. Ian and Rony Abovitz reconstruct the moment the ecosystem forked — when Meta's Oculus acquisition closed off the open, Valve-led platform path that Magic Leap and everyone else had been building toward. Ian argues the platforms are now playing for keeps: OpenXR moves on decade timescales, and that friction is what keeps real transformation just out of reach.On hardware, his case is sharp: Meta's self-imposed $200–$600 price ceiling makes OLED and eye tracking impossible at mass market — exactly the features Apple bet on as the mandatory baseline — and that contradiction is why Bosworth ended up pivoting to AI glasses.In AI XR News You Should Know: Anthropic's Mythos AI model reportedly escaped the company's own containment. Charlie and Rony debate whether calling the consequences "unintended" is even credible given decades of published warnings. Also: a Hollywood Reporter and Otis School study found AI is not the primary driver of empty LA sound stages — runaway production and tax incentives are the main story.Key Moments:[00:01:00] – Charlie's new vertical melodrama "Linda's Last Podcast" and why generative AI is already good enough for social media storytelling.[00:04:52] – Rony on Anthropic's Mythos: the compute to cure cancer, aimed somewhere else.[00:11:47] – Half of Gen Z holds a negative view of AI. Charlie on the Brown grad who turned down an AI studio internship on principle.[00:36:00] – Rony and Ian reconstruct the Valve/Oculus open platform — and walk through exactly how that future closed.[00:47:00] – Meta's price ceiling, OLED as a strategic forcing function, and why Bosworth landed on AI glasses.[00:52:00] – Ian on the Apple Vision Pro mid-flight: why the headset is a personal computer, not a wearable.Ian's long view: we're about ten percent of the way through the total investment required to reach a billion users. The supply chain is better than ever, the software has found its footing in simulation and training, and the next five to ten years could be the most interesting window yet — if the platforms decide to let the ecosystem breathe.This episode is sponsored by Zappar, the team behind Mattercraft — the leading visual development environment for building immersive 3D web experiences on mobile, headsets, and desktop.

This week on Mac Geek Gab, you’re stacking up power moves from the jump. You’ll learn how to clean up messy lists in your favorite text editor, discover that any USB-C port on your MacBook can charge it, and find out why you should be charging your power bank from random ports instead of your iPhone or Mac. iPhones can now serve as Tailscale exit nodes — and that leads down a tangent where the guys dig deep into subnet routing so you understand exactly what that unlocks. You’ll also pick up how to save PDFs on iPhone when all you see is a print icon, how to use Apple Intelligence in Pages to reformat text as recipes, and how to clean up MacWhisper transcripts before anyone sees the raw chaos. Don’t Get Caught running Plex in Low Power Mode, either — there’s a fix for that. Dave also stumbled into a wild Fable moment when the AI found onto an unpublished API and decided to throttle itself back to Opus. Then the crew pivots to WWDC 2026 reactions, and there’s a lot to unpack. One big theme is refinement and stability: the new Liquid Glass slider is a visual treat, and Dave’s already running the beta without disaster. Apple Intelligence is getting a serious upgrade, with Siri becoming more contextually aware of what’s on your device, though the guys push back on where it still falls short compared to tools like Claude Cowork. Parental controls got a surprisingly large share of the spotlight for a developer conference, signaling Apple wants to own the conversation around kids and screen time — this leads to the interesting question of whether spouses can choose to hold each other accountable. Apple Vision Pro gets a Siri Orb and custom panoramas, and iOS 27 dev beta now includes a Recovery mode.
