What’s better than Apple’s pricey but oh-so-lovely Studio Display monitor?
Why, two of them, of course.
In the many years we’ve been covering Mac user setups, we’ve noticed that lots of people love Studio Displays.
But some people take it further and double them up.
Dual Studio Displays make for great dual-display setups — and here are 12 of the best we’ve featured over the years.
Also in today’s newsletter:
It only took 15 years, but Instagram surprisingly dropped its first iPad app on Wednesday.
Tim Cook was probably concerned that the big Google antitrust case might hurt Apple’s bottom line. He needn’t have worried.
This amazing AI-powered gimbal turns your iPhone into a moviemaking powerhouse with super-advanced subject tracking, 360-degree panning and other great cinematic tricks.
Apple TV has a reputation for supporting the latest technology, and the just-announced Dolby Vision 2 promises to automatically optimize your TV’s picture quality based on what you’re watching and the viewing environment.
This is very interesting. Apparently, Apple thinks it’s going to sell a LOT more folding iPhones than it originally envisioned.
Wow, look at the musical lineup for Woz’s 1982 US Festival, which the Apple co-founder lost a small fortune producing.
The Slow Horses season five trailer packs on the action (which I don’t care for) but also the humor (which I do!).
The yeas have it from yesterday’s poll about whether we should be watching Invasion on Apple TV+. Time to start watching the sci-fi show!

That’s what this newsletter delivers.
I Hate it Here is your insider’s guide to surviving and thriving in HR, from someone who’s been there. It’s not about theory or buzzwords — it’s about practical, real-world advice for navigating everything from tricky managers to messy policies.
Every newsletter is written by Hebba Youssef — a Chief People Officer who’s seen it all and is here to share what actually works (and what doesn’t). We’re talking real talk, real strategies, and real support — all with a side of humor to keep you sane.
Because HR shouldn’t feel like a thankless job. And you shouldn’t feel alone in it.

One more thing ...
We think the Mac will sell zillions, but we didn't build Mac for anybody else. We built it for ourselves. We were the group of people who were going to judge whether it was great or not. We weren't going to go out and do market research. We just wanted to build the best thing we could build.
Today’s poll
Instagram on iPad: Do you care anymore? |
Results from yesterday’s poll: Anyone watching 'Invasion.' Should we tune in?
