I updated to iOS 26 and showed it to my wife. She couldn’t see a difference

I've been wondering when @mixpanel would copy @DoubleLoopApp and they finally did with their new metric trees feature. I think this has been a Double Loop invention? Feel sorry for them.

Nice detail on @attio's site: Your cursor turns into a collaborative "You" cursor in the header.

Has @sketch always had a 30-day free trial or did they ever test a freemium plan? Like Figma’s free starter plan with 3 collaborative projects. It’s interesting that they have so different approaches and usage-based limits seem like the new pricing standard over time-based.

To @peer_rich or someone else @calcom: Did you ever test a freemium option to your Teams product? Or has it always been completely paywalled? I’m curious if you landed on the paywall because that is what has shown to convert the best for monetizing team usage.

I don’t really understand the $60M investment in @cursor_ai. It’s an amazing developer experience but behind the scenes it’s a fork of VS Code and it connects to third party LLMs. How can you protect that position?

I like the brand work by @AnthropicAI. The warm colors, serif fonts, imperfections, and friendly UI make it much more pleasant to work with Claude compared to ChatGPT. On top of the better features…
