You don't. Use various other LLMs to check each other's work.

It's not about preference, but about being able to see the differences in the first place, so any sufficiently contrast combination should work. If you turn on the color filters in accessibility settings in macOS you can see what the c

Well we just went from "6x" to "40%" and "good" so, yeah... not quite as exciting.

And in the last 4.5y it's up 70% while the S&P500 is up 51% in the same time period, not quite as exciting eh?

Somehow, with 12GB of RAM, I can't get my iPhone 17 Pro to keep more than a few safari tabs open without having them refresh when I come back from an app or two, and it makes me want to throw my phone across the train (Where the intern

I tried that and many other things like changing the default color profile and it and it didn't work. A reboot fixes it for a few days before returning, so it definitely seems like a bug rather than a hardware issue. Both my work MBP (

While I'm really glad they've fixed a bunch of important security vulnerabilities, I'm really hoping they fixed the screen flickering issue [1] they introduced in macos 26. It has been driving me insane and even impacts my

It's worth pointing out that it's generally older people voting in other older people into power to deny younger people universal healthcare. (This isn't a free pass to younger people either, they don't vote as much as t

It’s not an opinion, the law states that ads must be “clearly” labeled as such, so if you disagree and think Apple is breaking the law, feel free to report them to the FTC and see how far you get.

Oh okay, you might want to brush up on what it means to have an educated and healthy workforce.

MacKenzie's charities mainly focus on job training, education, health, and you posit that'll cause an equivalent reduction in spending somewhere else? Is that really your train of thought?

That there may be "too much capital and credit" is a red herring because investors won't pour money into assets that aren't lucrative. The main reason housing has been so lucrative is because there's more demand tha

It’s not a silly comment, both macOS and iOS have been decaying into dog shit over the years from obvious bugs that anyone who uses the apps and features being sold would run into very quickly. Tim and other executives might be using their

The Music app on iPhones went from simple and usable to an absolute dumpster fire pushing a subscription. Even with a subscription it's incredibly maddening because of the terrible UX and show-stopping bugs (Literally failing at playin

I’m sorry but this is wild, but you want: - A salary that is ~15% higher than the median Bay Area household , which consists of ~2.6 people. And as an individual you’re calling it “barely survivable”. or a - A salary that is 40% higher

I fall squarely in the second camp, but what ended up happening was that I went from going occasionally, to not going at all. McDonald's app-free pricing is now butting against actual sit-down restaurants, or a good local shop. I'

Unfortunately autocorrect on iPhones at least has been garbage recently. It used to fix words as they were typed, and underlined in red if it couldn't guess, to completely rewriting more than one word going back and giving no visual

It's likely because of a much slower spin cycle, which is typical of commercial washing machines.

That’s really neat, I just wish Apple would go all-in on monitor support. There’s no good reason I shouldn’t be able to plug my phone into my Studio Display when I need a bit more room to work on a task I started on my phone. Yes, there’s h

Please add a setting to disable tab hibernation. Opening my laptop on a plane only to discover most of the tabs have been offloaded makes using Orion impossible.

This is BS, and race was absolutely part of the equation. The covenants to my parent's house in the SFBAY literally say no black people can live on the property unless they're servants. It's no longer enforceable today, but

Agreed! Accidentally dismissing the old menu and needing to scroll again drove me up the wall. My phone has over 3 million pixels and I did not gain anything by having a small, horizontally scrolling menu specific to highlighted text.

Okay, but it's also possible to use high quality eggs and fancy chocolate in a box mix, so it's not necessarily a strict upgrade to go from scratch either? Especially since there's differing levels of quality for boxed cake

Okay but in this scenario there would still be a slimmer/lighter iPhone to buy, so what's the problem? The apple watch ultra is thicker and overall bigger than the regular one in the name of better battery life, and people that do
