Make no mistake, the Apple Vision Pro is an absolute masterpiece of engineering. (Though, why they didn’t call it the iMask is beyond me.) It is a symphony of software and industrial design working hand-in-hand to create something new, profound, and, depending on your comfort in wearing ski goggles indoors, very cool.

How I spent my summer vacation.

A few of the best books I’ve read over the past few months.

What happened to the classic movie score? And, can we ever go back to a time when leitmotifs and memorable music came pouring out of theaters?
