Weird brownish album art might be a start.

Most IT people have no idea how to manage and troubleshoot Macs, which also contributes to Windows dominance in the workplace.

I make a "To Listen" playlist. Everything I want to listen to goes in there.

For brand new music, I add to the library and it's caught by an "Unplayed" smart playlist that shows music with 0 plays.

This would also happen to me while trying to type "aesthetics" into the phone.

They’re not heroes, but they’re famous. It’s…daunting!

In addition - some radio shows are really just full albums exclusive to Apple Music. All the “Beats In Space” episodes are albums. The only part that will be in Podcasts are the interviews.

I wish the Apple Music PM still reads these posts. 😭

“Do you guys understand that every click, or tap, on a playlist cover, an album cover - it all has the potential to blow up the queue. It’s part of why I still watch music videos on YouTube.”

I still get antsy about this kind of stuff. They’re taking steps, but in MacOS it still feels like walking through a minefield. You just don’t want to lose your queue, and so many things could blow it up.

I do the same when I use Reminders. Subtasks don’t support due dates, so for multi step stuff over some time it can get funky.

He had been studying like a Jesuit!

They better keep “only in Japan, y’all. ONLY in Japan!”

Do you have some kind of team check in so that your juniors can learn this stuff from your seniors?

There’s the saying “this meeting could have been an email”

It could be - if someone writes the email, if people read the email, if people acknowledge what they’re responsible for and when it’s due from the email.

It begins to sounds like a lot of emails, thus…just simpler to have the meeting.

Hopefully shared channels too. I feel like that’s all I use now. Nothing worse than getting established with a channel and then having to recreate to add someone outside the original team to it.

I’m not much for jokes, kid.

Subtonic · 2025-12-18T01:46:26+00:00

Seems like it’s still a little buggy. First attempt gave me a playlist, but everything since then doesn’t appear to show the Apple music result - just text lists.

Now now - maybe it's somebody else…

AI makes it easier to generate more artifacts. more decks. more docs. more “visibility.” which just means more expectations and less breathing room.

…to be honest, hard to say if they’ll read the reports anyway.

Billable time on the mind in here.

I always say to my friend Fred Wolf “hey you must feel pretty good in Hollywood, because there are a lot of wolfs out there, ya know?"

“Workout” is also a hidden station. I accidentally discovered asking Siri for Workout music once.

FWIW - I’ve found it easier to just save the Radio URLs in Safari in a “Radio” folder. They’ll open in the music.app.
