A memory like this: I’ve been exploring Liquid Glass for at least one year now, recreating many versions exactly nine all built with totally different techniques. I came to a realization. iOS 26, at least for me, missed part of the purpose. Liquid Glass is often used as decoration,... while refraction could become the core of the user experience. Not an embellishment, but interaction itself. By turning a glass panel, refraction reveals something else: another app, another image, another portal. That’s when it clicked. You look through one image, turn slightly, and suddenly you’re somewhere else. Same moment, different feeling. I really hope Apple takes this approach to the next level.

Hot Take 👀 The new Glass slider in iOS 27 should be the benchmark for every mobile OS. I mean, this takes customization to a completely different level. Users can actually control how much Liquid Glass they want instead of being forced into a single design choice. Meanwhile, One UI can barely offer this level of UI customization 😌 When it comes to UI/UX, Apple is the king. Samsung, prove me wrong by copying this for One UI 👀🔥

The Vision Pro may be off to a rocky start, but Apple might not be done trying to put hardware on your face. Liquid Glass, the design motif that is going to change the look and feel of all Apple devices starting later this year, takes explicit inspiration from the Vision Pro's augmented reality interface. And as Meta's Ray-Bans continue growing in popularity, and Google takes a second swing at smart glasses, the rumor mill is in full swing about the potential for Apple to enter the market. Especially among those tinkering with the early developer access to Liquid Glass, the potential for it to fuel a smart glass-oriented operating system is clear. After all, transparent design elements are most important when they might prevent you from running into something. Get immersed in more rumors here:

designers love to hate on raw, unfinished things. redesigning the whole ios/watchos/macos/... ui after a decade is a brutal challenge for any design team! almost impossible to satisfy the expectation. most haters around here have never designed in a large organization like apple and are not aware of challenges such as politcs, opiniated stakeholder, impossible deadlines, the list goes on... i empathise with the ui designers in apple. yes! os26 and liquid glass feels rough at the moment! so did the ios7 at launch. it evolved. this will too. i appreciate the brave direction apple has taken with this liquid glass ui. yes it comes with challenges including readability, compatibility and more... let's stop b*tching about it and contribute to solutionise these challenges.

HUAWEI HarmonyOS 6.1’s liquid glass effect is indeed the closest implementation to iOS 26 among all current smartphone operating systems. It looks genuinely beautiful. This may be one of HarmonyOS’s advantages. At least in terms of visual rendering, dynamic blur, transparent materials, and layered depth, Huawei has clearly shown that it has the ability to create this kind of premium glass-like effect. I am not trying to argue whether it is right or wrong for Huawei to follow Apple’s design direction. My point is that the ability to actually achieve this effect is impressive in itself. By comparison, other Android-based OS skins have not yet shown the same level of execution. The Android camp still has work to do.

My initial problem with Liquid Glass was that it was terrible for accessibility despite how beautiful it looks it certain places. There is literally only one way to solve this readability issue – make the glass frosted/opaque. And from the public backlash that Apple received it was pretty obvious that it was a matter of time before they made this change. The problem now is that when you make it opaque, it barely looks any different from iOS 18, yet it keeps eating up resources and draining your battery. 3 betas in, and I still feel like this design direction was a big mistake.

$🚨UNIPHICS NEWS🚨: Light doesn’t slow down in glass — time does. And that explains every rainbow you’ve ever seen 🧨 For centuries, we’ve been taught that light slows down when it enters glass, water, or any transparent material, and that this slowing causes refraction and the splitting of colors in rainbows and prisms. The refractive index is treated as a material property, and photons are pictured as particles mysteriously changing speed inside matter. Uniphics offers a much cleaner and more fundamental picture. Light is a propagating spin-wave mode in the ξM-field. When this wave enters a material like glass, the material increases the local energy density. Because time flow is directly tied to energy density (t_flow = k / E_d), time flows more slowly inside the glass than in air. The spin-wave pattern of light therefore takes longer to advance through the region of slower time flow. This change in the rate of time progression across the boundary causes the wave to bend — exactly what we observe as refraction. Different wavelengths (colors) interact slightly differently with the energy-density environment, so they bend by different amounts, creating rainbows. Nothing actually slows down in the classical sense. The wave simply experiences a different rate of time flow inside the material. The same principle that explains gravitational lensing also explains ordinary lenses and rainbows. This turns one of the most familiar phenomena in optics into a direct consequence of variable time flow caused by energy density gradients. How might realizing that refraction and rainbows are caused by local changes in time flow rather than photons slowing down change the way we think about light, materials, or the design of new optical technologies? A Theory of Everything should be able to answer everything. Uniphics Explained Simply PDF: Chapters 1–10 free: Grokipedia #Uniphics #Refraction #Rainbows #TimeFlow #Light Grok xAI$

I used to think healthy people were just built different. Like they were born loving salads and waking up at 5 AM for a jog. But here I am, barefoot in the sand, soaking up sunlight, breathing in ionized air... while old me would be otw to Happy Hour—to pregame for another night of partying, poor sleep, and midnight pizza. Funny thing is, it all started with one small change... I stopped drinking soda with every meal. I still have it a few times a year, but that tiny shift is all it took. Cuz that tiny shift led to another... Then another... Then another. Now here I am. 10% bf year-round with no tracking, very little forcing myself to do anything. Just a better lifestyle that feels natural and is completely aligned with my goals. James Clear calls this chain reaction of habits, "the compounding effect of habits." Turns out healthy & fit people aren't different—they just build better loops :)

On this, my birthday… I thank God for a year, though with more challenges than victories, that taught me lessons hidden in pain, in loss, in struggle. For showing me that taking a noble stand, even if it costs you, even when you’re criticized, is far better than living safe, silent, and untested. I Thank God for a year that built grit in so many of us and taught us more about the invincible power of not giving up. For the humbling truth that no one person can save the world but we all can serve in it - especially in small acts. Daily kindness. And maybe that’s how the world heals, not all at once, but a million times over. Thank you for reminding me, in a long year, to hold onto wonder, joy and even fun - as defiance, as resistance, as restoration in the long fight. And this year… thank you for a love that changed my life, for a wife who brought with her a universe of joy, and a partner to walk with, day by day, turning the ordinary into something sacred. Another year older. Another year grateful. Another year still learning how to love, to serve, to stand. (Thank you jin_sung_sa for sharing this precious birthday greeting with your followers and me).

$🚨 SCIENTISTS EXPLAIN: Light doesn’t actually “slow down” in glass time does. And that’s exactly why rainbows exist. For centuries we were taught that light slows down when it enters glass or water, causing refraction. But the deeper reality is more beautiful: light still travels at c between atoms. What changes is the time delay caused by constant absorption and re-emission by the material’s electrons. This tiny delay is different for every wavelength → which is why white light splits into a rainbow. Why this matters: • In vacuum, light always travels at c • In glass/water, the phase velocity and group velocity appear slower due to interactions with matter • Different colors (wavelengths) experience different delays → dispersion • This is what creates rainbows, prisms, and the beautiful colors we see in nature The deeper implication is mind-bending: Light doesn’t “slow down” like a car hitting traffic. It’s constantly being absorbed and re-emitted by atoms, and the accumulated time delay reshapes how the wave propagates. The universe uses time itself as a tool to bend light and paint rainbows across the sky. What do you think is this one of the most elegant explanations in physics?

Hot Take: The New Camera app on iOS 26 is GREAT i initially hated it when i first saw it on the keynote, but now that i've used it, I'm loving it It’s familiar while being really simple I've always felt that the Camera app on iOS has gotten really complex and convoluted in these last few years, and the new one fixes that, while still being as nuanced as the old app if you configure it the way you want it to behave takes some time to get used to, but this is great, it really does simplify the whole Ul but, this could've been the perfect time for Apple to introduce Manual controls as an Option in the Native app, even after all this redesign, Apple is still stubborn on not adding Manual Controls it's 2025 Apple,if you're gonna let users shoot LOG Video from the Native App, let us have Manual Controls as an option in the Native App, instead of downloading third party apps👏 i wonder how people shoot LOG Videos without Manual Controls💀

A lot of hitters confuse being late with letting the ball get deep. They’re not the same thing. In this video I show it with a simple example. I toss the ball and reach way out in front of me to catch it. That’s what late looks like. The ball already beat you… now you’re chasing it with your hands. Then I toss another one and catch it slightly behind me. That’s being on time and letting the ball get deep. When you’re late, your body and barrel are reacting after the ball passes your window. You’re forced to reach, cut across it, or roll it over. When you’re on time, you can let the ball travel and still control it. Now the barrel can stay through the zone longer, and you can drive it with authority. Deep ≠ late. Good hitters aren’t reaching for the ball… they’re on time enough to let it come to them. ⚾️ Train with an expert. Not an influencer.

Tears in my eyes as i type this, i feel like a proud dad right now, the journey hasn’t been a day’s one, Somto has been at this for not weeks, not months but yearssss and it’s all starting to pay off. I’ve never seen an artiste with a higher work rate than this guy and i can boldly tell you this because we’ve lived together as roomates for over a year, i would really love if all my followers and generally anyone seeing this to show some love and support by following him and supporting him, he’s now in the Top 12 of the NEXT AFROBEATS STAR competition and stands a chance at winning a 150 million naira record label deal but we need your support ❤️ UNILAG, please come through, my twitter family pls come through for me❤️

Two weeks apart. Same person. Different choices. This isn’t a “fell off” post. This isn’t shame. This is reality. This is part of the story. After the show, I went from 168.4 lbs to 182.2 lbs. And at this point… it’s a choice. I’ve realized something about myself: When I hit a peak, I tend to sabotage it so I have something to chase again. But the truth is.. Greatness is built by staying disciplined after the high, not restarting from the low. And as someone who’s lived both extremes more times than I can count, I’ll say this with full honesty: The pain of discipline is ALWAYS better than the pain of regret. So here’s the good news… I get to use this moment as fuel. I get to document the entire climb back and show you exactly how I’m going to do it using the same systems I teach in G7 Coaching and the G7 Fitness App. No waiting for New Year’s. No “Diet Starts Tomorrow.” We start today. It’s Game Time. 💪🏾😤

🚨 BREAKING: Scientists have used “bottled lightning” to turn methane into methanol in a single step. Instead of extreme heat and pressure, the system uses tiny plasma bursts inside glass tubes submerged in water, with a copper-oxide catalyst. Why this matters: Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas. Methanol is a valuable liquid fuel and chemical feedstock. If this scales, it could help convert leaked or stranded methane into something useful instead of simply burning it off. This is not just cleaner chemistry. It is controlled plasma chemistry turning waste gas into fuel. Could plasma reactors become part of the future clean-energy toolkit? What do you think? Follow me for more frontier science.

Since v14, FSD has this weird obsession with moving from the inner lane to the outer lane during a left turn. For me, it happens on every two-lane left turn. And it does it in a very jerky, dangerous way — even if it means cutting in front of another car, FSD will still insist on doing it. Is this because FSD is more afraid of hitting the curb at the corner than of getting rear-ended by someone else? This really feels like a serious bug to me. I’m not sure whether it’s because the model is overfitted to avoid curbs during turns, or because it was trained to always end up in the rightmost lane after a left turn. I honestly don’t know, but I really hope this gets fixed soon.

This woman rented an Airbnb while in Portugal. She’s from the states and is used to turning the key to the right to unlock the doors. However when she tried doing this here, it wouldn’t work because you use to turn the key to the left. Other people are criticizing her and blaming her for not knowing how to open a door. But as with many things when going abroad, we don’t think about something as simple as that. Should the owner have at least showed her how to do it knowing she’s not from around there?

Today, I officially turn 40. That’s four decades of wisdom, growth, and—let’s be honest—a few questionable life choices. But here I am, celebrating with the one person who has truly been with me through it all… my reflection. In this picture, you see two men. But don’t be fooled—it’s just me and my mirror, having a deep heart-to-heart. “We made it,” I tell myself, raising a glass. My reflection nods, clearly proud. “And somehow, we still look this good.” People say 40 is when life really begins. I’m not sure what that means, but if it involves more moments like this—laughing, reflecting, and enjoying the simple things—I’m all for it. So, here’s to me, to 40, and to all the good times ahead. If you see me talking to myself, just know it’s a very important meeting. 🤷‍♂️

The last year has been a study in silence. While the creator economy raced forward on fragmented rails, we took a different path. We didn’t chase hype. We didn’t ship for noise. We built. Because what creators need is not another platform competing for attention. What they need is a foundation. Donatuz began as a simple solution to a visible problem: fragmented monetization. Subscriptions in one place, calls in another, streams somewhere else. No creator could operate from a single source of truth. But the deeper we went, the more we realized that fixing fragmentation was just the surface. The real work is about architecture. And that’s where our story truly begins.

I wanted to wait until the con is pretty much over. I reported this to Twitch Staff mid block party immediately, but there were souvenir switchblades available for purchase (or literally grab and walk out with) at one of the shops in the Block Party Gaslamp area. It was a whole collection with different names engraved so anybody could reach and grab it at any height. It was towards the back corner of the shop so you had to walk in and really browse to notice it. The shop itself was also at the very back corner so there was barely anybody browsing it. However when my group all saw this at the same time - we all had the same concerned look without even saying a word. We noticed these the 1st hour of the Party so I immediately wanted to leave.
