1639811371092316160 | @jsngr I strongly recommend listening to @gruber’s interview of @MichaelSteeber last year discussing his project The Apple Store Time Machine. The project definitely reignites many of the feels. https://t.co/vZFRwEefxK https://t.co/uIRzepiz2W | 1 |
1641615818755538945 | @gruber @GrimkorLP @JamesSurowiecki @caiobchi @mtaibbi When the charges turn out to be garbage like every other accusation about Trump so far and the case turns to vapor like every other one against him, you can bet a lot of people will vote for Howdy Doody before voting Democrat. | 1 |

1640336047392391171 | @gruber re: the mixed-reality headset, I’ve long had a concern that Apple is forgetting Steve Jobs’s famous statement at WWDC ‘97 (responding to the OpenDoc guy) that you have to start with the benefit to the customer and work backward to the technology, not the other way around. | 0 |

1640152692151517188 | @profvrr @gruber @daringfireball Your confidence should be waning faster than the vaccines you promote. I’ve watched your lecturers, there seems to be some confusion in your lecture content and how it sits in Covid-19. | 0 |

1641615672013914114 | @gruber @JamesSurowiecki @caiobchi @mtaibbi Oh.. I'm sorry.. I forgot that you are supposed to have a ton of followers in order to have a voice. I'm sorry massa. I'll get back in my place | 10 |
1638659784613466113 | @gruber Yes. The glass was getting broken almost immediately after it opened — some accidentally, some intentionally — and that was BEFORE a pandemic, an empty downtown, social injustice protests, etc. The second wall sits a few feet outside the glass, which is still there. Many feelings | 9 |

1641616831273136132 | @Pa1mettoL1berty @gruber @GrimkorLP @JamesSurowiecki @caiobchi @mtaibbi Meh, rumor has it it’s 34 charges. Good luck with that. You think the DA is going to indict the first ever former POTUS without an airtight case? Dream on. | 6 |

1640705896010641412 | So there’s a new chat app @gruber’s advising, Wavelength. It’s a bit of Slack, a bit of iMessage. It’s pretty quiet right now if your contacts haven’t joined. So I made a Wavelength group for writers: https://t.co/NHVk9JwsTg Come share what you’re writing? | 5 |
1638688698161311745 | @wrylee @gruber @editorialiste Palm bet BIG on people (women, especially) wanting a petite phone with a physical keyboard. When that turned out not to be a big market, they were slow to change course. WebOS might have had a better shot on a more iPhone-like piece of hardware. Sprint exclusivity didn’t help. | 4 |
1638659939211296768 | @gruber Relatedly, I look forward to seeing what the updated official "hero shot" will look like… | 4 |
