Ignoring the hyperbolic “Canada’s answer…” part of the headline, watch the video and tell me – are you in the target audience for this little car and would you buy it? I certainly wouldn’t but the two-seater roadster looks kinda cool.

I didn’t realize it had been so long ago since the last fatalities. As much as I hate flying, it’s comforting to know that, at least in the US, flying has never been safer.

I could not be prouder to be a Canadian.

This is a great example of technology being used to help people do something they can’t do for themselves.

Some of these are really well done. I hate that Tom Selleck is still so handsome.

I couldn’t put this on my bucket list fast enough after watching this video.

Of all the people at Apple who should know better, you’d think the guy who sent out emails that said, “Remember, trading is not permitted, whether or not in an open trading window, if you possess or have access to material information that has not been disclosed publicly.” At least, you’d hope he’d be smarter about it.

Someday, humans will arrive on Mars and find Opportunity and its fellow wanderer Spirit. I hope we have a fitting tribute to these little robots.

It’s amazing how fast Shenzhen has gone from the proverbial “sleepy little fishing village” to a high tech city of 13 million people and the “factory to the world”.

Mindboggling. I love being underwater but this guy is part fish. And what’s up with that weird underwear pattern on his wetsuit?

I broke the screen of my old MacBook Air on (the first day of!) my trip to Australia last year but haven’t felt the need to replace it until now. The 2018 MacBook Air is tempting.

I’ve been using this app for a couple of days and for data nerds, there’s a wealth of interesting info included.

Interesting analysis but for me, it’s tempered by that fact that where I live in Vancouver, Canada, I rarely if ever see AirPods in use.

I’m a confirmed City Kid and love skyscrapers and how they make a city’s skyline beautiful or less so. So there’s a fascination for the idea of a mile high skyscraper. But is it just a lack of desire/money or physics that prevents it from happening?

I love these little videos from Pixar.

As I said elsewhere, keep an eye on this program because, make no mistake, Apple wants to roll this out to every American.

700,000 young immigrants’ lives hang in the balance.

This is definitely an area many of us wish Apple had taken the lead in developing.

Users say they don’t like/want in-app purchases and subscriptions but we keep buying them.

Bet you didn’t see this one coming.

I don’t know a damn thing about design but listening to Dieter Rams talk about it is still fascinating.

You can’t go wrong letting Prince pick your party music.

This. is. awful. If any of you young folks want to know what the World Wide Web looked like in the 1990s, look upon this site and despair for your elders and what we had to endure.

Dave and I talked about the recent changes in Apple’s retail executives and whether or not you should put tape over the camera on your computer.

Even if I wrote my own obituary, I still wouldn’t be as cool as this woman.

There are few things quietly funnier than a Merriam-Webster subtweet.

We’re in the market for a new set so this was helpful in explaining to my non-techy wife why we need a 75″ TV. Please don’t tell her we don’t.

First chess, then Go and now Jenga? Is no game safe from computers and robots!?

Post-shot Depth Control is a lovely feature.

Good to hear that Apple has stepped up and done the right thing by this kid.
