By inviting sports tech indie media like @dcrainmakerblog and @GetDesFit to the event, we know that Apple is selling sports features. What will they need to succeed? Battery, battery, battery. More custom activity screens, buttons, and connectivity to sensors.

The NY-10 primary shows how ranked choice voting would produce better outcomes. I’m pretty sure that the 40% of voters who voted for @yuhline and @MondaireJones would prefer the other to Goldman.

House of the Dragon is not Succession with Dragons. And it should be. They could have taken the Succession pilot script, replaced “Waystar-Royco” with “the Iron Throne” or “the Seven Kingdoms”, and add dragons.
