Many good questions! For the purposes of this conversation, try to keep your replies to roughly the same length as my prompts. That will help me keep ideas straight. I have ADHD, and when you throw 100 things at me I get overwhelmed.

If my Drinking Buddy post left you with questions about vibe-coding, App Store rejections, the role of Shortcuts in an AI-future, and what exactly is possible today using various AI app-creation tools, I highly recommend the latest episode of @appstories.macstories.net.

Thanks for the write-up! I was actually listening to that episode this morning and nodding along furiously the entire time!

Pretty good. Currently my favorite video that unironically uses the cursed term “bad CGI.”

When the photo disproves the title.

I tried the Reflection Frame and immediately returned it. It made my photos look so dim and sad.

Steve realizes something that Apple doesn’t seem to: a platform doesn’t feel alive until creative people start making cool stuff for it without being required to have an engineering degree.

New Prolost Apple Log LUTs coming soon! Prolost Beta subscribers get them first.

What would you do if you could automatically estimate the depth in your footage?
Coming soon from #RedGiant!

Yep, very. I filed a FB. Also strange that my icon is missing here. What version of iOS are you on?

Thanks, nice to see how it’s supposed to work! But I’m never presented with that menu to choose the Shortcut. (iOS 26.0 (23A345))

I appreciate the suggestion but I can’t find Control Center anywhere in the Shortcuts share sheet.

Buh-bye Dubai.

Just a very normal situation.

Mimi, hold my calls
