Rush - The Spirit Of Radio - Permanent Waves

It's really hard for me to pick any one Rush song as a favorite. But any list I might make of their amazing music would have to have this song near the top. For me, there are so many songs that can evoke a very clear memory of a time in my life, or even a single day. I've listened to this song since I was a teenager. I've heard it hundreds and hundreds of times. But it almost always reminds me of a time when I had just graduated from college, was newly married, and had a nearly one-hour commute to work. I can vividly remember listening to this song as I was leaving for work one morning. It etched itself deep into my brain that day. I have no idea why, but it found a place to hang out in my brain and never left.

Options For Local AI

Siri in the iOS 27 beta is great for world knowledge and for asking about things on device that involve your personal data. This is going to be a really big release that will improve everyone's experience using Apple devices. But if you want to do programming-related tasks without paying a fortune, you have some great options.

I'm currently running oMLX and Opencode on my Mac Studio. The models I've been using the most are "Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-OptiQ-4bit" (a 35-billion parameter model compressed to 4-bit quantization) and "Qwen3.6-27B-UD-Q6_K_XL-mlx" (27 billion parameters at 6-bit quantization). It's really amazing how well these local models perform.

I've already created multiple scripts and apps using just these local models. I've found and fixed numerous issues using these tools. It can be as simple as having them review my changes and point out issues I missed. You really don't have to spend any money to do even complex work.
