@cbarnes1364 @zollotech I’ve had this same thing happen for a few years (multiple iOS versions). I just assumed it was the way iOS worked. Calendar still notifies me when to leave based on my current location, so the feature still works. Maybe it’s just the view in Calendar that’s messed up?

I have a question about the Apple Calendar app. Since the last update, when I put in a new calendar appointment, I start by putting in the location of the appointment, then turn on time travel and set my start location, then select based on location for my travel time like I have always done. Now if I go back into the same calendar event, it will automatically take based on location off and set it’s to the time that was originally given to me when I set it for based off of location to begin with. Now I can go back into an appointment I put in before the last update and time is still set to based on location. My wife is having the same issue also. Is anyone else seeing this problem? (I also marked out the address for privacy.)

A while ago, probably in 2017, I appeared on Tucker Carlson's Fox show to talk about God knows what. Afterwards a name I barely knew sent me a DM on twitter and told me I did a great job. It was Charlie Kirk, and that moment of kindness began a friendship that lasted until today. Charlie was fascinated by ideas and always willing to learn and change his mind. Like me, he was skeptical of Donald Trump in 2016. Like me, he came to see President Trump as the only figure capable of moving American politics away from the globalism that had dominated for our entire lives. When others were right, he learned from them. When he was right--as he usually was--he was generous. With Charlie, the attitude was never, "I told you so." But: "welcome." Charlie was one of the first people I called when I thought about running for senate in early 2021. I was interested but skeptical there was a pathway. We talked through everything, from the strategy to the fundraising to the grassroots of the movement he knew so well. He introduced me to some of the people who would run my campaign and also to Donald Trump Jr. "Like his dad, he's misunderstood. He's extremely smart, and very much on our wavelength." Don took a call from me because Charlie asked him too. Long before I ever committed (even in my mind) to running, Charlie had me speak to his donors at a TPUSA event. He walked me around the room and introduced me. He gave me honest feedback on my remarks. He had no reason to do this, no expectation that I'd go anywhere. I was polling, at that point, well below 5 percent. He did it because we were friends, and because he was a good man. When I became the VP nominee--something Charlie advocated for both in public and private--Charlie was there for me. I was so glad to be part of the president's team, but candidly surprised by the effect it had on our family. Our kids, especially our oldest, struggled with the attention and the constant presence of the protective detail. I felt this acute sense of guilt, that I had conscripted my kids into this life without getting their permission. And Charlie was constantly calling and texting, checking on our family and offering guidance and prayers. Some of our most successful events were organized not by the campaign, but by TPUSA. He wasn't just a thinker, he was a doer, turning big ideas into bigger events with thousands of activists. And after every event, he would give me a big hug, tell me he was praying for me, and ask me what he could do. "You focus on Wisconsin," he'd tell me. "Arizona is in the bag." And it was. Charlie genuinely believed in and loved Jesus Christ. He had a profound faith. We used to argue about Catholicism and Protestantism and who was right about minor doctrinal questions. Because he loved God, he wanted to understand him. Someone else pointed out that Charlie died doing what he loved: discussing ideas. He would go into these hostile crowds and answer their questions. If it was a friendly crowd, and a progressive asked a question to jeers from the audience, he'd encourage his fans to calm down and let everyone speak. He exemplified a foundational virtue of our Republic: the willingness to speak openly and debate ideas. Charlie had an uncanny ability to know when to push the envelope and when to be more conventional. I've seen people attack him for years for being wrong on this or that issue publicly, never realizing that privately he was working to broaden the scope of acceptable debate. He was a great family man. I was talking to President Trump in the Oval Office today, and he said, "I know he was a very good friend of yours." I nodded silently, and President Trump observed that Charlie really loved his family. The president was right. Charlie was so proud of Erika and the two kids. He was so happy to be a father. And he felt such gratitude for having found a woman of God with whom he could build a family. Charlie Kirk was a true friend. The kind of guy you could say something to and know it would always stay with him. I am on more than a few group chats with Charlie and people he introduced me to over the years. We celebrate weddings and babies, bust each other's chops, and mourn the loss of loved ones. We talk about politics and policy and sports and life. These group chats include people at the very highest level of our government. They trusted him, loved him, and knew he'd always have their backs. And because he was a true friend ,you could instinctively trust the people Charlie introduced you to. So much of the success we've had in this administration traces directly to Charlie's ability to organize and convene. He didn't just help us win in 2024, he helped us staff the entire government. I was in a meeting in the West Wing when those group chats started lighting up with people telling Charlie they were praying for him. And that's how I learned the news that my friend had been shot. I prayed a lot over the next hour, as first good news and then bad trickled in. God didn't answer those prayers, and that's OK. He had other plans. And now that Charlie is in heaven, I'll ask him to talk to big man directly on behalf of his family, his friends, and the country he loved so dearly. You ran a good race, my friend. We've got it from here.

Reminder: Profit is a good thing. This should be an obvious statement. But, since our youngest and most educated citizens keep voting for people like Zohran Mamdani and AOC, apparently it needs to be reiterated. Profit is a good thing. It is critical for a progressive, flourishing society, and the ethical pursuit of it should be celebrated, not criticized. What is profit? Profit represents the financial gain that accrues to owners of a business when total revenue exceeds total costs. Put simply, it’s how much business owners get to keep when they’re able to sell things for more than it costs to create them. Socialists commonly denigrate profit as “exploitative” or “parasitical”; if they’re trying to sound fancy, they’ll say things like “the surplus value of labor that the bourgeoisie capitalist class has extracted from the working class.” They are wrong. Profit serves two extremely valuable—and irreplaceable—roles in society, even for people who don’t own businesses: 1. Profit rewards risk and incentivizes growth. All economic ventures that create value for the wide range of stakeholders in our society—from financial parties, such as investors and lenders, to customers, suppliers, employees, governments, and community organizations—have financial outcomes that are inherently uncertain. This uncertainty is called risk, and, in varying levels, it is inherent to any project without a guaranteed and instantaneous payout. Without profit, there would be no incentive for companies and their shareholders to assume these risks. Without profit, there would be no capital investments (e.g., equipment purchases, new factories), innovation (e.g., new technologies, pharmaceutical R&D), or entrepreneurship. Without profit, there would be new jobs created, no new restaurants to enjoy, no tax revenue to fund government benefits, national defense, public education, municipal parks. Profit is the mechanism that makes progress possible, for business owners and employees alike. 2. Profit sends a signal to the rest of the economy that a certain product or service is valuable, and that someone should make the investments necessary to supply more of it. Economists refer to this as a price signal, and it’s virtually impossible to replicate outside of profit creation in a market-based economy. When auto manufacturers are able to sell cars profitably, it sends a signal to the market for competitors to produce more of them (whether through greater capacity utilization at existing facilities or by constructing new factories). This leads to more cars being produced and sold, lower prices for customers, greater labor demand, and, over time, stronger wages for employees. The same applies to plumbing companies, iron ore mining, wheat production, new medications, video games, coffee shops, and every last job in the labor market. Profit provides the signal that subtly directs every economic decision across our complex, wonderful, multifaceted society. It sounds simple, right? But there are millions of variables here across millions of economic participants, all of them changing continuously. What looks seamless in a market-based economy becomes impossible to model in a centrally planned one. It’s laughable to even try. Our modern-day capitalist society is nothing short of a miracle. It may not be perfect, but it’s vastly superior to any other economic system ever attempted or imagined. Profit is a foundational pillar of that system, and it deserves respect as such. Keep that in mind next time you’re at work, checking out at the grocery store, or filling out your ballot in a voting booth.

A couple reflections on the quantum computing breakthrough we just announced... Most of us grew up learning there are three main types of matter that matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Today, that changed. After a nearly 20 year pursuit, we’ve created an entirely new state of matter, unlocked by a new class of materials, topoconductors, that enable a fundamental leap in computing. It powers Majorana 1, the first quantum processing unit built on a topological core. We believe this breakthrough will allow us to create a truly meaningful quantum computer not in decades, as some have predicted, but in years. The qubits created with topoconductors are faster, more reliable, and smaller. They are 1/100th of a millimeter, meaning we now have a clear path to a million-qubit processor. Imagine a chip that can fit in the palm of your hand yet is capable of solving problems that even all the computers on Earth today combined could not! Sometimes researchers have to work on things for decades to make progress possible. It takes patience and persistence to have big impact in the world. And I am glad we get the opportunity to do just that at Microsoft. This is our focus: When productivity rises, economies grow faster, benefiting every sector and every corner of the globe. It’s not about hyping tech; it’s about building technology that truly serves the world.
