I don’t know. Em-dashes are normal punctuation. The prose on the site doesn‘t strike me as particularly AI-y, but of course I might be wrong. Generally speaking, if the person wants to not use AI and tell people that, thats fine by me too.

It was a good ad. But also, Mac OS X at the time was so vastly and obviously ahead of Windows, it was a very natural choice if your circumstances allowed it (IMHO etc). It really really didn‘t break Microsoft. They were, and are still, more

Hi all! I wanted to share a library I wrote that I think is needed to make OPFS actually useful. For context, OPFS is the Origin Private File System, giving your app a orgin-scoped high performance file system, ideal for stuff like sqlite o

hey! Great job on this, dashersw. I‘ve believed for a while now that the compile time dependency analyzer approach is the only good way for frameworks like this. Really neat choices on the API surface as well – so simple! Launching with a h

just as a little side note: while it really isn‘t regarded as a typical mac game nowadays, Halo was originally planned as a Mac-exclusive, before Microsoft bought Bungie. If memory servese me right, Jobs even presented it as an exclusive at

their site says it’s 90% efficient [0], which is impressive, but I agree, still sub-optimal for large scale installations. The other thing is that it needs to be perfectly aligned. If you can’t be bothered to plug in a cable, can you be bot
