Apple Released Small Macbook Neo
Powered by A18 Pro, the new MacBook is priced at $599. It's 13 inch and I got pretty interested in small and light laptops recently, because they are so cuute~ Neo many people say is targeted at edu / students, but perhaps I can connect it to a tailscale mesh for coding on the move? Also this pink color is so pretty my heart melts

Have been using on an on-device VLM based Shortcut to keep track of my daily expenses, pretty happy about how it turned out. Figured it's worth sharing, assuming your are using Apple phones, unfortunately.
