Was long time ago I used macOS in any professional capacity, but doesn't it just maximize the height of the window, not the width? I seem to recall some UX like that, but might have been a different action/button.

I'm wondering if this is what they themselves use for developing the Prime Video app? At least on LG, it's by far the slowest, laggiest and most broken app our family sometimes use.

Unfortunately, as every public benchmark, once it ends up in the training sets and/or the developers aware of it, it stops being effective, and I think we've started to reach that point. The only thing I've found to give me s

You should really try it in WSL or proper Linux, the experience is vastly different. I've mostly been using Codex (non-interactively though) for a long time on Linux. I tried it out on Windows just the other day for the first time and

Ever tried 2CB or mushrooms/psilocybin and if so, how prominent were the visuals? Always found those to be more visual (for better or worse), particularly compared to LSD, but I don't have aphantasia.

I don't use AWS and looking in ~/.config/gh I see two config files, no plain-text secrets. With that said, it's not impossible some tool leaks their secrets into ~/.local, ~/.cache or ~/.config I suppose.
