Not Trying to Hide it
In an old interview between Howard Stern and Jerry Seinfeld, we learn how the greats do it again. The clip is from 10 years ago and clocks in at 3 minutes, and for Seinfeld, that's all it takes to do a complete masterclass. Stern is trying to understand how Jerry lives his life in a constant and obsessive need to find material for the next joke.
Best lines from the Howard Stern interview:
I'm NEVER not working on material... ever!
Every second of my existence, could I do something with that?
Making jokes is not work; it's a gift.
Your blessing in life is when you find the torture you are comfortable with.
Find the torture you are comfortable with, and you'll do well.
It's torture; I love it.
“Making jokes is not work; it's a gift - Your blessing in life is when you find the torture you are comfortable with.” - Jerry Seinfeld

Apple’s iMessage on Windows
iMessage is finally coming to Windows. Microsoft announced that Phone Link for iOS is now rolling out to all Windows 11 customers, allowing iPhone users to make and receive phone calls and send and receive messages via iMessage. TechCrunch has the announcement and suggests it will roll out to the general public in May. This is big news if you have ever used a remote desktop application to bring your MacBook up on your primary Windows computer.
