It has long made compelling sense that nonprofits find both formal and informal ways to work together for mutual benefit. With 1.5 million nonprofits there is too much shared if not duplicate mission space. We cringe when we hear well-intended men and women talk about establishing new nonprofits. The overarching goal is to provide the most effective and cost-efficient solutions to the myriad challenges facing the world.

On Monday, I walked into my office to see a handwritten thank you note from our CEO on my desk. This experience demonstrated just one of many donor recognition examples.

The support list for macOS Tahoe still includes Intel Macs, but it's been whittled down to just four models, all released in 2019 or 2020. We speculated that this meant that the end was near for Intel Macs, and now we can confirm just how near it is: macOS Tahoe will be the last new macOS release to support any Intel Macs. All new releases starting with macOS 27 will require an Apple Silicon Mac.

But Mac power users in particular are going to really fall for two things: the new Spotlight, and the new Shortcuts. In macOS Tahoe, Spotlight, the universal search and launcher feature you open with Command+Space, can now do more than just open stuff.

After staring at, scrolling through, and puzzling over Apple's new Liquid Glass design language on my iPhone for the better part of an afternoon, I don't hate it. But I also think it needs a little more time in the kiln. Apple announced Liquid Glass on Monday for all of its devices at WWDC 2025. Perhaps the most noticeable thing about it is that app icons, tab bars, and even the text magnifier you'll see when you hover over words feel, well, liquid-y and glassy.
