Marco Arment, the indie developer who created popular apps like Overcast and Instapaper, and who previously served as Tumblr’s chief technology officer, is out today with his latest creation — an alternative to Apple’s Reminders designed for procrastinators, called Unforgetful.

The new iOS and Mac app works with your current Reminders database, but it’s designed for people who find Apple’s system doesn’t work for them.
As Arment explains in his announcement on Friday, “Siri, for all of its faults, has always been very good at creating tasks in Apple’s Reminders app… The Reminders app, though, doesn’t fit me at all. I don’t like how it looks, how it works, or how it’s organized. Hell, I don’t even like its icon. There’s nothing about it I like. So I never open it.”
The developer pointed to specific issues where he felt Reminders fell short, like how its snooze feature worked, or those times when he accidentally dismissed a reminder instead of snoozing it, losing the reminder altogether. Arment also noted that if he forgot to include a time when setting a reminder, he’d miss getting a notification, so the task never got done.

Unforgetful is meant to address these issues and make it impossible to lose your tasks. For some, the solution could be overkill, but for those who are addicted to snoozing reminders or need more regular nudges, it could help keep them on track.
For starters, notifications will always repeat — even if you miss them or dismiss them — until the task is actually done and deleted. This makes it harder to lose reminders, especially if you’re guilty of dismissing them before completing the task.
Snoozing has also been revamped so that the intervals scale as you continue to snooze your tasks. However, it won’t overwhelm you with multiple tasks at the same time, which could lead you to freeze and do nothing at all.
The app keeps things fairly simple, too, as there are no tags, different views or modes, or other organization tools to learn. (For more advanced features like this, Apple’s Reminders app would still be a better choice.)

In short, Unforgetful becomes the tool that makes sure you stay on top of your reminders, no matter whether you prefer to enter them by hand or tell Siri, and no matter whether they have a deadline or not. Because the app works with your existing Apple Reminders, you can continue using reminders as you always have — you just turn off the Apple Reminders notifications and replace them with Unforgetful notifications instead.
While there are other well-designed, third-party reminders apps on the market, the best thing about Unforgetful’s setup is this Reminders integration. This means you don’t have to explicitly tell Siri to use Unforgetful when you’re adding reminders. And if you find you don’t like the app, you won’t need to export your reminders back to Apple’s database. (Because they’re already there!)
Unforgetful also ships with its own in-app microphone for voice reminders and a full suite of widgets for the Lock Screen and Control Center.

Last year, when Porsche debuted the 963 RSP—a street-friendlier version of its 963 hybrid race car built for Roger Penske—Cadillac evidently took notice. Because the V-One Concept, unveiled today at The Quail, follows the same ideological path, which is essentially, “What if we made our race car a little bit more comfortable and people could maybe drive it on the dang road?” This is, of course, an excellent proposition and a thought experiment that we fully support, even if the chances of Cadillac selling Dallara-monocoque Le Mans racers at our local dealers are probably about the same as the likelihood of reviving the Cimarron. But feel free to place your Polymarket bets now.

Cadillac hasn’t explicitly said that the V-One is intended for street use, but if that weren’t the case, then why not just offer the racer as a track toy and call it a day? Ferrari already does it with the 499P Modificata, after all.
Cadillac says that, compared to its V-Series.R race car, the V-One is “intended to be easier to operate while offering a similar level of performance.” We think the V-One would be significantly quicker than its race brethren, given that it’s unconstrained by pesky LMDh class rules that limit the V-Series.R to 670 total horsepower.

The V-One, meanwhile, is good for 830 combined horsepower from its 5.5-liter DOHC V-8 and electric motor, and while Caddy hasn’t specified which wick got turned up, we’d suspect it was on the loud side given that LMDh cars use a standardized 67-horsepower Bosch motor-generator unit.
Carryover hardware from the race car consists of most of it, including the Dallara carbon-fiber monocoque, the body, and the pushrod-actuated suspension. And, like the V-Series.R, the V-One is a single-seater, but the interior has been poshed up a bit with Cadillac Collection fabrics, a custom user interface (read: screen), and steering wheel buttons that could be tailored to a customer’s desires—you know, if there were customers. The seat would, of course, be fitted to whoever is shelling out what the V-One would cost, which we estimate would be more than a CT4.
Cadillac
Lest you confuse your V-One with all those V-Series.Rs strewn about the Target parking lot, the concept gets unique wheels, V badging, and a sweet paint job that transitions from silver at the front end to deep navy blue at the rear to symbolize day turning to night in an endurance race. Can we figure out how to offer that on Blackwings?
Cadillac
There is also a serialized plaque on the door. Which implies more than one V-One, doesn’t it? We hope so. Because even if nobody figures out how to put a license plate on an LMDh car, it would make for an excellent way to spice up your next HPDE run group at your local road course. And if a production V-One seems unlikely, it wasn’t so long ago that the same could be said of Cadillac building our favorite 668-hp rear-drive sport sedans. Hey, dare to dream.

When I moved to Ireland in 2022, I had two specific goals in mind.
… %!s()
I wanted to step inside Trinity College's gorgeous library, and I also hoped to finally see the Cliffs of Moher, a place many readers might recognize as the site of Voldemort's Horcrux cave in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince."
Once I arrived, though, Ireland surprised me. It was far more beautiful than I expected, and I wanted to explore much more of the country than I'd originally planned.
Over the course of a year, I traveled across Ireland by train and bus — and found four places that were genuinely worth it and two that didn't live up to the hype.
Howth was one of my favorite day trips from Dublin.
The Howth Cliff Walk was one of my favorite spots in Ireland.
Nishtha Chaudhary
Howth is just a 6-euro, half-hour train ride from Dublin's city center, but it feels like a completely different place.
It's a small fishing village on Dublin's northeast coast, and the harbor's eateries serve some of the best fish and chips I had in Ireland.
The real highlight, though, is the iconic Howth Cliff Walk. There are multiple routes to choose from; I mostly followed the Cliff Path Loop, which is relatively easy, can be done in two hours, and delivers incredible views of the Irish Sea.
Bog of Frogs Loop is also a great choice for a more challenging route.
Kinsale is where I fell in love with Ireland's small-town charm.
I loved taking a short trip to the gorgeous cliffs at Old Head of Kinsale.
Nishtha Chaudhary
Kinsale is a colorful harbor town near the city of Cork. There's no direct bus from Dublin, but I got there by taking a 14-euro bus to Cork, and then a short local bus to Kinsale for 7 euros.
This town is known as the food capital of Ireland, and it lives up to the reputation if you love seafood. What I loved just as much, though, was Kinsale's art scene.
The town is dotted with small galleries, and as someone who enjoys museums and creative spaces, I could have easily spent hours wandering in and out of them.
If you have time, Old Head of Kinsale, just south of town, is worth the short trip for its sweeping cliffs along the Wild Atlantic Way. My visit there is one of my favorite memories from my time in Ireland.
Glendalough has beautiful scenery and a charming, historic feel.
Glendalough feels historic, charming, and quiet.
Nishtha Chaudhary
I first saw Glendalough in a romantic scene in my favorite rom-com, "Leap Year." I'd wanted to visit ever since watching.
An hour by bus from Dublin, Glendalough valley is a budget-friendly way to experience the Irish countryside, with round-trip tickets costing around 23 euros.
The valley is built around two glacial lakes and the ruins of a 6th-century monastic settlement, giving it a quiet, historic feel.
My favorite part is the Spinc trail, one of Glendalough's best-known hikes with stunning views of the valley. It's a bit challenging and time-intensive to complete, but once you see the landscape from above, it feels completely worth it.
I found Dalkey to be the perfect summer spot.
Dalkey is a must-visit part of Dublin.

Dalkey is a big reason that South Dublin is my favorite part of the city.
It's a small seaside town that's easy to reach by train, with round-trip tickets starting around 5 euros. I found the town to be compact and walkable, with several small parks scattered throughout.
Dalkey has strong links to Ireland's most famous writers and is often associated with James Joyce's "Ulysses," which you can learn more about at Dalkey Castle.
That said, when I visited, I spent most of my time on Vico Road, which runs along the coast to Killiney Beach. If you enjoy swimming, the Vico Baths area is one of the best summer spots in Dublin.
I thought Blarney Gardens were impressive, but I was a little underwhelmed by the castle.
Blarney Castle was beautiful, but it wasn't one of the most memorable parts of my time in Ireland.
Nishtha Chaudhary
Blarney Castle and Gardens in Cork are genuinely beautiful, especially the gardens, which were some of the prettiest I saw in Ireland.
However, I had high expectations for the castle, and I found it a little underwhelming to explore.
A lot of my visit revolved around lining up to kiss the Blarney Stone, and the roughly half-hour wait didn't feel worth it — or particularly memorable.
I'm glad I saw the Cliffs of Moher, but I wouldn't necessarily go back.
The Cliffs of Moher were beautiful, but my visit felt a bit rushed.
Nishtha Chaudhary
The Cliffs of Moher are beautiful and dramatic, and seeing them in person, especially the Horcrux cave, made me glad I finally got to tick them off my list. However, I probably wouldn't go back again.
Some locals warned me about the heavy summer crowds, so I went in April, hoping for a quieter experience. Even then, though, the viewpoints were busy, and my visit felt rushed.
Reaching the cliffs without a car also meant a 4½ -hour journey each way and about 36 euros in transport costs. Compared to the quieter cliff walks I found elsewhere in Ireland, these didn't feel like the best use of my time or money —especially on a student budget.

Long before hockey’s current pop-culture renaissance, the sport was already a second home for Noah LaLonde, having played competitively for most of his childhood.
Now, as LaLonde works to establish his new home in Hollywood, he can’t help but laugh at the coincidence of it all. “It’s just funny to me that this would happen at this time in my life when I just got people to stop asking me about hockey,” the 28-year-old quips during a recent chat with The Hollywood Reporter.
… %!s()
Growing up on the ice in Michigan, LaLonde says it initially felt like hockey “was kind of my definitive path.” That was until he started to question things and his “interests started to shift more and more,” eventually coming to the realization that “the only place that I really found I could understand myself a little bit more was watching movies and watching TV shows and getting invested into these journeys that other people were on.”
That’s when he finally decided to answer “this thing that’s been calling my name for a long time,” which was acting. He eventually landed his starring role on Netflix‘s teen drama My Life With the Walter Boys in 2023, playing the charismatic but complex heartthrob Cole Walter.
It’s safe to say LaLonde didn’t anticipate going from hockey player to onscreen heartthrob, playfully stating to THR, “I can’t say I actively wake up, put on my heartthrob hat and brush my heartthrob teeth. I don’t do that.”
But he’s happy to embrace the label if it means he gets to continue working on projects that connect “with a lot of different people from a lot of different backgrounds and different perspectives,” such as Walter Boys, which just released its third season and has a fourth season on the way.
Below, LaLonde opens up about what he’s learned from playing Cole for three seasons, the on-screen romance with Nikki Rodriguez’s Jackie, whether he would be open to starring in a hockey-centered show, those Leonardo DiCaprio comparisons and more.
As a former hockey player, what’s your reaction to seeing the sport enter the pop culture zeitgeist with recent shows like Heated Rivalry and Off Campus?
The NHL or the hockey gods, they must have struck a deal. It’s just funny to me that this would happen at this time in my life when I just got people to stop asking me about hockey (Laughs). But I think it’s great. … I watched Heated Rivalry. I loved that show. And the thing that I loved most about it is that it brought a different perspective that not a lot of people expected from a show about hockey. Not that one perspective tells all, but my experience playing hockey was a little bit more rigid in that the reason I stopped playing is because it was the same thing all the time and there wasn’t a lot of nuance for feeling something that I wanted to feel or stepping out of the path and kind of being yourself. So every new story told in that environment is a win in a way that it expands the perspective that people pair with the sport.
Netflix also has some hockey shows in the works, so would you be open to combining your two loves and taking part in that show if the opportunity presented itself?
I would love to. I mean, I can cut a month out of the prep or however long they tell people to learn how to play or how much time they allot them. Look, fresh news stories in those environments are fun and it certainly would be a cool thing to mend. And a lot of people back home who liked watching me play hockey — my parents would freak out. They’re like, “We can do both at the same time.”
Pivoting back to the present, you’ve been with your character Cole for three seasons now on Walter Boys, which is an achievement in this ever-changing TV era. What have you learned from playing him?
For one — you speak about this age of television — it’s such an honor to be able to work with one character for this amount of time. And for me, it being my first long-term role, it’s been the thing that I’ll always equate to so much of what it is to be an actor in this industry. And the nerves from the very beginning led to this very disciplined approach to trying to fully take over the character and take ownership over his life. And for an actor who once had a sport be the definitive identity piece, and then to lose that, and then to forge your new path through the things that are in front of you and being in touch with what’s inside you, I think you’re starting to hear a little bit of a similar thing to Cole. So it’s been therapeutic in a way to explore that thing through the lens of Cole Walter.

Netflix
In this new season, Cole and Jackie finally get together, even if it’s just for a short period before they hit more hurdles. What was it like getting to explore that onscreen romance deeper this season?
It was a really wonderful challenge as an actor because it felt like it made so much sense for the characters after everything that’s happened in the first two seasons. It kind of feels like this slow burn of, wow, this person is so interesting to a little bit of cat-and-mouse to — at least for Cole, thinking of Jackie — this is the exact person that I need to inspire me and help motivate me to navigate this stage of my life. And she’s doing it with such an intensely traumatic experience in losing her family. So I think the way in which the relationship builds and the attraction builds, it just felt really right to read those scripts. And I think we just wanted to do it justice in that they really cared about each other.
Your character also started exploring car racing this season, which was new to the show. What was that experience like?
It was the other side of Cole that we have seen very much in repair these first two seasons, where he’s a deeply competitive guy who’s driven by that progression through competition. And like myself, I was searching for something to fill that void. … So this is the season where Cole’s really building out a potential new life. And it was really fun to explore that. The drag-racing scene was very new to me, but I went with a couple of the gentlemen who worked on and owned one of the cars in the show. I drove up a couple of hours on the weekend and saw them race for real. I read about all these actors doing these things that they had no clue about, so to actually get to do that was really cool. Of course I didn’t get to drive really fast, but just being in those cars — they’re incredibly well-built and interesting to explore.
With Walter Boys being your breakout role, and you playing a teen heartthrob that’s involved in a classic love triangle, do you ever worry about getting typecast in that kind of character?
It’s not something that I actively think about because I try to stay in the moment and present and lead with a lot of gratitude because, like you said at the beginning, to be embarking on a fourth season here is not the norm with TV anymore. So I’m super grateful to be working and getting to explore characters. So that’s my main focus right now.
There’s a lot of people who have forged this path before me and everybody has a different story, so I’m not too necessarily worried about getting typecast. I’m more so excited to tell the next chapter of my story rather than the worry of what it could be. I have this trust of what’s meant for me or what’s supposed to be next for me will be. I was asked that a couple of weeks ago: How does that feel [to be a heartthrob]? And I’m like, well, I can’t say I actively wake up, put on my heartthrob hat and brush my heartthrob teeth. I don’t do that (Laughs).
It seems fans have also compared you to a young Leonardo DiCaprio on social media, so what do you make of that?
He’s a legend. He’s one of the first actors that I was really in awe of. Someone told me that I looked a little bit like him when I was a kid. There was a photo of him with his mother, and it looked pretty similar to me and my aunt. Again, young teen age. And I just went through his whole filmography and watched every single movie that he did. And so he’s a great inspiration to me and one of the finest actors of our time. And the way in which people call him a heartthrob coming out of the gate, he also did totally non-heartthrob stuff before he became the international heartthrob of the world. But the way in which he’s charted a path through his career — again, everyone has a different path — it’s hard to find a better one than that.
When you’re not filming and working, what does your perfect day off look like?
Oh man, the perfect day off is a lot of walking. I love to explore wherever I’m at via my feet. And I could walk forever around a city and start with a coffee and then meet up with a friend for a lunch and then walk with them them to a beach where we can catch the sunset and a dinner and meet up with two other friends. … I just love to be present in places with other people. And if you extend that, it sometimes forms into watching a movie and that’s what I love to do and I love to be a part of.
THC and CBD, active compounds in cannabis, are increasingly showing potential for relieving mental health conditions
MAURO FERMARIELLO/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
The main psychoactive component of cannabis seems to reduce persistent and distressing nightmares in people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The drug dronabinol – purified tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) oil extracted from cannabis plants – was more than twice as likely to lead to a complete cessation of nightmares in people with the mental health condition than a placebo. Although it is unclear why it has this effect, THC may suppress the stage of sleep when dreams are most likely to occur.
… %!s()
About 4 per cent of the global population have PTSD at some point in their lives. It causes people to repeatedly recollect a traumatic event, often through nightmares. Treatments like trauma therapy can help, but these aren’t always easily accessible, and no interventions specifically focus on relieving nightmares.
Stefan Röpke at the Charité–Universitätsmedizin Berlin hospital in Germany sees people with PTSD every day and says some report getting relief from their nightmares if they take a small amount of cannabis before bed. “That was the rationale [for the trial],” he says.
Röpke and his colleagues recruited 171 people with PTSD who experienced frequent, intense nightmares, assessed via a standard 0-to-8-point scale. Eighty-seven of the participants were instructed to take dronabinol – which is approved to treat nausea and vomiting caused by cancer drugs, and loss of appetite in people with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) – 1 hour before bed every night for 10 weeks. The remaining 84 participants took a placebo.
They started on 2.5 milligrams and gradually increased the dose until their nightmares stopped or they reached the maximum 15 mg dose. Röpke stresses people shouldn’t self-medicate with cannabis: “Treatment with dronabinol [and similar interventions] should be prescribed and monitored by a physician.”
After 10 weeks, nightmare severity decreased by about 3.7 points in the dronabinol group – 1.5 points more than the placebo group. “A 4-point improvement could mean having nightmares several times a week with considerable distress at baseline and having only occasional, mildly distressing nightmares after treatment,” says Röpke.
“Based on the moderate effect size for the nightmares outcome, I would say the findings are clinically relevant,” says Carrie Cuttler at Washington State University.
The researchers also found that 58 per cent of the dronabinol group experienced at least a 50 per cent reduction in their nightmare frequency and intensity, compared with 29 per cent of the placebo group. What’s more, 37 per cent in the former group experienced a complete cessation of their nightmares, compared with 15 per cent of the placebo group. “What impressed us most was the magnitude of the effect,” says Röpke.
THC’s psychoactive effects meant that around 4 in 5 of the participants who took it gauged that they weren’t in the placebo group. However, half of those given a placebo thought they received dronabinol. Expectancy of an effect may explain some of the results, but probably not all of them, says Röpke.
“If they’re not dreaming as much, then they’re not going to have nightmares,” says Cuttler. “The problem is that if you discontinue using THC, there is an REM rebound, and you have really bad nightmares.”
The researchers observed a small increase in sleep disturbances in the two-week follow-up period after the study ended. Cuttler says this could encourage nightly use of dronabinol, which doesn’t get to the root of someone’s PTSD. “The symptoms come back once they sober up and that leads them to need to use more of the drug, and that can create a cannabis use disorder or dependence.”
Seven people who received dronabinol experienced a serious adverse event, which the researchers say wasn’t caused by the treatment, compared with none in the placebo group. %!s()
