Tech & Innovation‘My Apple Watch is going to hate this’: Our wearables are making us anxious and obsessive — Here’s what we can all do about it
Health tech that over-incentivizes streaks and compliance is drifting from wellness into compulsion — if your product’s primary loop is guilt, expect churn and regulatory attention. Teams building quantified-self features should prioritize adaptive goals and off-ramps for obsessive behavior, not just more nudges and badges.
Tech & InnovationDynaudio's wild soundbar with moving 'kinetic fins' is one of the most impressive I've ever seen — I spoke to the company's CCO about building a luxe soundbar for giant TVs and its impressive 24-driver design
High-end home theater is drifting toward kinetic, architectural objects — not just black bars under the TV. If you're building in living-room hardware or experiences, assume buyers will pay for spectacle and integration, not just specs.
Tech & InnovationI watched Spider-Man: Brand New Day in Dolby Cinema — and the sound stole the show
Premium cinema is leaning on spatial audio as the differentiator that home setups still can't fully match. Studios and platforms investing in Atmos-grade mixes are buying themselves a longer runway before living-room parity erodes theatrical demand further.
Tech & InnovationI watched the behind-the-scenes documentary Disney Worldbuilders and it's inspiring — but I wish they had turned it into a Disney+ series instead
Audience appetite for deep process stories around worldbuilding suggests there’s room to turn production workflows themselves into serialized IP. If you run a content-heavy business, consider whether your internal build process could be repackaged as its own product rather than just marketing collateral.
