Toy Story 5 has the right take on tech

David Pierce's latest Installer newsletter is a good reminder that tech writing doesn't always need to be breaking news — sometimes it's just honest about what the week actually felt like. This week: reading about Sam Bankman-Fried, listening to Paul McCartney on Song Exploder, trudging through iOS 27 beta to test the new Siri, and the eternal battle of free trial-hopping through the World Cup.

But the real headline is what he calls out in the title: Toy Story 5 has the right take on tech. The film treats our devices not as miracles or doom but as ordinary things we use, love, and outgrow. That's the move — stop treating every upgrade like a revolution and start treating them like the tools they are.

Why this matters for us: La gente is tired of being told every new thing is life-changing. Sometimes it's just a tool, and that's enough.
