I’m in NYC for the Stephan Wolfram dev/ai/nyc conversation tomorrow at the Automattic Noho space. While walking back from the Apple Store in Soho where I had picked up a new Studio Display XDR to try out, ran into one of my favorite YouTube accounts to follow right now, Ari at Home! I ran into him around 32 minutes into this Twitch stream. Here’s how he set up his rig.
Ran into @ARIatTWIT walking back from @Apple store with new Studio XDR. ? Offered to get him set up on @WordPress or @Tumblr.
Carrying the display was my workout for the day. pic.twitter.com/q3vgAG7Hxm

A video I’ve shared with friends recently is when Harry Mack ran into Ari, which was fun for me because they’re two of my favorite accounts to follow. Sorry I didn’t freestyle! I had to get back to do some work, which is why I got the monitor.
In other cool X/Twitter news, they launched an awesome feature today that lets you restrict replies not just to people you follow, but to people they follow as well. Nikita gave a hat tip to the conversation I had with Peter Levels / @levelsio.
