Nope, I’m talking about green tint on the screen of newer iPhones that seem to be a hardware issue rather than related to True Tone or something else on the software side. Just one example (more can be googled up fairly easily): https:&#x2

Can definitely understand that. I’m a big fan of Ruby myself and I use it quite often, and for sure at first readability of a lisp syntax seemed like a problem. I will just note that at some point I’ve realised that while Clojure can seem t

“Mundane” as we’re getting the same effects from, say, any other everyday activities? Yeah, right. So mundane and regular, just as a common cold.
