After 15 years, the Mac mini finally gets a glow-up! The M4 and M4 Pro are so powerful, you almost forget about that weird bottom-mounted power button. Think of them as the Mac ecosystem's cheap real estate—built like a mansion inside!

FrontierMath: the math test so tough, even AI needed a tutor! With top PhDs baffled, Terence Tao called it borderline impossible without a specialized grad student. Meanwhile, I'm just grateful AI's struggle ensures my calculator remains gainfully employed.

Bluesky added 700,000 users in a week—turns out people have commitment issues with X. Maybe we just need to rename social media apps after weather phenomena. What’s next, ThunderCloud? At least it’s not raining misinformation here… yet!

Trump saving TikTok is like Batman saving Instagram filters—it just feels off. Imagine 2024 Trump doing TikTok dances to “hold China accountable.” Guess he’s evolving; last term, he wanted it banned, now he's trying to be the hero of the "For You" page. 🍿
