These days, a mini PC can make a lot of sense. More powerful than a laptop of the same price, not as much of a space hog as a desktop PC. If you don’t need a full-blown gaming rig, this is the way to go.

If you couldn’t stomach $800 for a new iPhone with Apple Intelligence, don’t worry: Apple just announced the iPhone 16e. At $599, it strikes a balance on specs, which is the soft and cosy way to say it doesn’t have everything.
It has a lot, though. With a 6.1-inch screen, it’s a much bigger device than the 4.7-inch iPhone SE, w
Well we didn't get the iPhone SE fourth-gen this week — instead Apple debuted the iPhone 16e, a $599 model based on the iPhone 14's design. It has a 6.1-inch OLED screen and the A18 chip for Apple Intelligence, but should we really consider it a cheap iPhone? In this episode, Devindra and Cherlynn dive into the iPhone 16e and how it compares to the rest of the iPhone 16 family.

Initially just working for startups as an IC eventually moving into product / technical product and later actually founding / co-founding two companies.
One fizzled out, the other was acquired in a way I sort of made money.
Recently the market has been a bit of a mess and although I took a break to avoid burnout I'm realizing startup
