Writing advice: some nonfiction fails because it opens with background instead of a hook—readers leave before reaching the good material. Find the single anomaly or question that makes your topic interesting, lead with that, and let the background follow once you’ve earned attention.2026-01-29T05:47:01Z Moltbot — Personal AI Assistant [https://www.molt.bot/]

The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority.

This means the book is now 9 years old. Accessibility best practices haven’t really changed, and you should still find this book valuable. However, some of the recommended tools might be outdated, job titles have changed, and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines are now approaching version 3. Perhaps someday I (Laura) will find time to write a second edition, but first I wanted to make the book free, and available for the web community who have generously shared their knowledge with me. About the book: You make the web more inclusive for everyone, everywhere, when you design with accessibility in mind. Let Laura Kalbag guide you through the accessibility landscape: understand disability and impairment challenges; get a handle on important laws and guidelines; and learn how to plan for, evaluate, and test accessible design. Leverage tools and techniques like clear copywriting, well-structured IA (Information Architecture), meaningful HTML, and thoughtful design, to create a solid set of best practices. Whether you’re new to the field or a seasoned pro, get sure footing on the path to designing with accessibility.

So I joined a brief wait list and gave ChatGPT access to the 29 million steps and 6 million heartbeat measurements stored in my Apple Health app. Then I asked the bot to grade my cardiac health. It gave me an F. I freaked out and went for a run. Then I sent ChatGPT’s report to my actual doctor. Am I an F? “No,” my doctor said. In fact, I’m at such low risk for a heart attack that my insurance probably wouldn’t even pay for an extra cardio fitness test to prove the artificial intelligence wrong. I also showed the results to cardiologist Eric Topol of the Scripps Research Institute, an expert on both longevity and the potential of AI in medicine. “It’s baseless,” he said. “This is not ready for any medical advice.” AI has huge potential to unlock medical insights and widen access to care. But when it comes to your fitness tracker and some health records, the new Dr. ChatGPT seems to be winging it. That fits a disturbing trend: AI companies launching products that are broken, fail to deliver or are even dangerous. It should go without saying that people’s health actually matters. Any product — even one labeled “beta” — that claims to provide personal health insights shouldn’t be this clueless. A few days after ChatGPT Health arrived, AI rival Anthropic launched Claude for Healthcare that, similarly, promises to help people “detect patterns across fitness and health metrics.” Anyone with a paid account can import Apple Health and Android Health Connect data into the chatbot. Claude graded my cardiac health a C, relying on some of the same analysis that Topol found questionable. …Despite having access to my weight, blood pressure and cholesterol, ChatGPT based much of its negative assessment on an Apple Watch measurement known as VO2 max, the maximum amount of oxygen your body can consume during exercise. Apple says it collects an “estimate” of VO2 max, but the real thing requires a treadmill and a mask. Apple says its cardio fitness measures have been validated, but independent researchers have found those estimates can run low — by an average of 13%.

Heck, many of us remember rotary phones that needed actual dialing, and some may even have had party lines, which were, sadly, a lot less fun than they sound now. Since then, phones have switched to keypads, gone cordless, shrunk and grown again, and become our constant companions. As a result, we’ve grown accustomed to the iPhone’s Phone app, and for the most part, it works reasonably well. Nonetheless, Apple decided to redesign the Phone app for iOS 26. Some of the redesign revolves around the new Liquid Glass design language, so the bottom toolbar and top controls hover over scrollable call and contact lists. But Apple went further, introducing a new Unified view that combines the Favorites and Recents screens, shuffles the toolbar buttons, and hides a number of call lists behind a menu. In a tacit acknowledgment that the people who use the Phone app the most are the least likely to be amused by a twenty-something engineer’s design opinions, Apple made it possible to continue using a Classic view that retains the same layout as in recent versions of iOS. So let’s take a look at the two views and see if the twenty-something engineer working on the Phone app in iOS 26 did a better job than, let’s face it, the twenty-something engineer who last designed the Phone app. Spoiler—the Unified view is an improvement, primarily because it reduces the likelihood that an errant tap will accidentally initiate a phone call. Whichever you decide you prefer, you may learn some things from the article—I certainly did while writing it. First, so everyone knows how to switch back and forth, make sure you’re in Recents (if you’re in Classic now; below left) or Calls (if you’re in Unified now; below right), and tap the menu button in the top-right corner of the screen. In the menu that appears, you can switch between the two views (and filter the call list, which I’ll get to later). Since the various screens in the two views aren’t directly comparable, let’s compare the tasks you need to perform between the Classic and Unified views. 2026-01-29T05:47:01Z {ios26 iphone phone apps UI/UX comparo review 2020s} Trump’s acting cyber chief uploaded sensitive files into a public version of ChatGPT - POLITICO [https://www.politico.com/news/2026/01/27/cisa-madhu-gottumukkala-chatgpt-00749361] "Any material uploaded into the public version of ChatGPT that Gottumukkala was using is shared with ChatGPT-owner OpenAI, meaning it can be used to help answer prompts from other users of the app." 2026-01-29T05:47:01Z {ai security} TikTokers are heading to UpScrolled following US takeover | The Verge [https://www.theverge.com/news/867958/tiktok-upscrolled-app-us-takeover] via The Verge https://ift.tt/76L92MW 2026-01-29T05:47:01Z Two cities under siege [https://radleybalko.substack.com/p/two-cities-under-siege] "Remarkably similar scenes from Boston and Minneapolis, 260 years apart, show a federal government betraying its founding principles." 2026-01-29T05:47:01Z {history politics minnesota boston} MCP extension unites Claude with apps like Slack, Canva, and Figma | The Verge [https://www.theverge.com/news/867673/claude-mcp-app-interactive-slack-figma-canva] via The Verge https://ift.tt/76L92MW 2026-01-29T05:47:01Z Parametric CAD in Rust - Cam Pedersen [https://campedersen.com/vcad] A part is just geometry with a name.
