No surprise that the new MacPro is a stinkadoro. Who would spend money on that?

Microsoft moving into the designer market with the Surface Design.

Microsoft is making a big mistake by giving up on the phone market.

Smartphone enabled keys for those car-sharing kind of make sense.

The most important nugget:

The team focused on five markers to measure childhood flourishing: completing homework assignments, caring about doing well in school, finishing tasks that are started, showing interest and curiosity in learning new things, and staying calm when faced with challenges.

This is what happens when you don't look at your phone all day!
