I got asked how I made the testing rig for my recent experiments with Apple’s on-device LLM.
Instead of explaining, I made an app you can download for macOS Tahoe that lets you test your own prompts.

A week-ish ago I wrote about my experiments with an on-device LLM Apple released for use by apps on the latest beta OSes. A local LLM might be useful in places where you would never use a hosted LLM like ChatGPT, so I wanted to see what’s possible to do with it. natbuckley.co.uk/2025/06/20/d...

Very moved by Paul’s clear, evidenced and well articulated letter to his MP about trans rights. I’m especially grateful because the issue is too emotional for me to bring this degree of thoughtfulness to the table po-ru.com/2025/04/26/a...
A letter to my MP about trans rights
After seeing the way that politicians and organisations have overreacted to the recent Supreme Court judgment and interpreted it the most anti-trans light possible, I decided to send a letter (a real ...

Fantastic work. So many great design ideas for transforming relationships through design and technology.
we've written up some work exploring what grants might look like if power between grantseeker:grantmaker got slightly reshuffled, and if the technology UK gov used to give out £46bn of grants was an enabler rather than a constraint. grab a brew, enjoy

This is absolutely fantastic. Such a simple idea, but it’s mind blowing to me that the current crop of presentation software is not capable of presenting interactive prototypes anywhere near this well
Made a slides / prototype mashup for a talk us at @dxw.com did recently.
Avoids the clunkiness of leaving and returning to slides to demo a prototype.

I briefly went to NYC for work last week. I found a coffee shop which served Earl Grey, so I asked for it with milk, and received what I can only describe as an Earl Grey cappuccino. What you’re looking at here is true innovation.

I wrote an article for The Modern House where I put together ideas showing how the Energy Performance Certificates could be even more useful to people looking for a new home.
Homes that are more efficient are also cheaper to run, and will have lower CO2 emissions. 🧵
