🔗 Asymco Bulletin 008 – Apr 12, 2026
The Motley Fool asks: Where Will Apple Stock Be in 5 Years? → Not reading this article is probably a wise decision.
Horace is definitely not ‘up’ on the punditry of ‘The Fool’.
I did not expect to see (I wont say ‘read’) an article called 🔗 Jimi Hendrix’s Analog Wizardry Explained in an IEEE site when I ‘feed perused’ this morning - but it does connect.
Hendrix didn’t speak in decibels and ohm values, but he collaborated with engineers who did—Mayer and Kramer—and iterated fast as a systems engineer. Reframing Hendrix as an engineer doesn’t diminish the art.
After 16,000 words it would seem that the answer whether Sam can be trusted sepends on who you ask. Caveat … not read it .. but listened to the Hard Fork interview.
💬 One of the original artists in the history of Structured Thought. Flatland was published in 1884.
👁️🤯 Not one - not two - not even three - but FOUR - count them - FOUR definitions of .card-photo in the CSS fighting with each other - and none of them are winning. No wonder the file is so big …😬
👁️ Cyclone ❓ .. what Cyclone❓
The whole piece is so funny - but I have set it to start at the point where Kevin is talking about a problem that I guarantee has affected you dear reader.
📸 Tonight’s sunset is very different to 🖇️ last night’s - probably a lot to do with the cyclone hitting tomorrow.
🔗 MacOS Seemingly Crashes After 49 Days of Uptime - a ‘Feature’ Perhaps Exclusive to Tahoe
And if I’m wrong about the post being AI slop and a human at Photon actually wrote this, I would suggest taking it easy with the cocaine.

it’s about kākāpō parrots!
I do watch Jason - he’s another Liam in many ways - same character - same principles - same story - but make it entertaining. He usually delivers. But this little piece of knowledge I did not know.
🔗 Shelter (2026) | Brandon’s Journal
Jason Statham is arguably the most reliable actor in Hollywood. He has at least one new movie out ever year and it’s always released theatrically. He actually holds the record for having over fifty live-action theatrical releases with no direct to DVD/streaming/VOD releases, which is impressive as hell. Is every movie great? Not at all (I’m looking at you Exp4ndables) but for the most part you know what you are going to get and he delivers.

We hire architects to design expensive buildings, but we design expensive human interactions as an afterthought.
🔗 Adobe Is Mucking With Users’ /etc/hosts Files – Pixel Envy
I have precisely ONE product installed from Adobe - essentially using their equivalent of Documentum. I need to move to something else that is not Adobe or Documentum and release - I suspect - gigabytes of bloatware that I have always known is floating around the drive somewhere.
Morning Claude
Can you look through all of our conversations and across all projects and give me an action list of projects that we have started but are not yet complete. In a seperate list - and reading between the lines - are there some project possibilities that we have not yet picked up on that could make sense and then present me with a full Markdown doc that I can review.
🤯 It did - it is now in Craft. Careful what you ask for … thinking about the next prompt. Something like …
Can we set about developing priorities to help focus.
📸 Got to say we do see some good sunsets from time to time - but this one …🤯 … never seen anything like it from this balcony.

🔗 The Moon was Never the Point - Gapingvoid
Like for like I would argue that there is some kind of normal distribution curve at play here … where Gapingvoid’s conclusion is correct in the centre - but wrong at the extremes.
5 - 50 and 500,000 are not ‘specific’.
Managing ‘5’ mini projects is easier than one project that encompasses those ‘5’ mini projects.
Managing ‘50’ mini projects is harder than one project that encompasses those ‘50’ mini projects.
Managing ‘500,000’ mini projects is easier than one project that encompasses those ‘500,000’ mini projects.
I should come back to this with more detail - lets see what the cognoscenti has to say … nothing - as usual - would be my guess.
Attention and trust continue their dance, and our choices determine how we’ll show up in the marketplace. Burning trust to get attention rarely pays off.

Unmasking either one isn’t just invasive. It is destructive to what they built.
