Please, save yourself, stay away. It is a buggy, slow mess on a 16 Pro. I paid for 120hz but it can’t even hit 60 on the Home Screen :(

Unfortunately it turns the iPhone into a lever that is always trying to launch itself from your hand. The iPhone part is much heavier than the keyboard part. And the ergonomics of the camera control become impossible (unless you have enormo

The third party keyboards are OK, but it depends on if you trust sending 100% of your typing content to a third party. The two big options are owned by Microsoft and Google. It’s bad enough I have to trust Apple. And Gboard still isn’t as g

I moved from 13 mini this year to 16 Pro, the keyboard is just as bad either way, not a noticeable difference. Maybe slightly worse on the 16 because the ergonomics are so bad.

If you read my comments, you’ll see that I did no such thing. I asked if you did 5-10 years of work in the last year (or 5-10 weeks of work in the last week) and didn’t get a response until you accused me of denying your reality. You’ll not

It’s a general question I ask of everyone who claims they are 10x more productive. Year/month/day/hour doesn’t matter. Did you do 10 days of work yesterday? 10 weeks of work last week? It is actually a very forgiving metric o

It’s because people turn off their critical thinking and make outrageous claims. That’s why when folks say that AI has made them 10x more productive, I ask if they did 10 years worth of work in the last year. If you cannot make that claim,

Every time a new model or tool comes out, the AI boosters love to say that n-1 was garbage and finally AI vibecoding is the real deal and it will make you 10x more productive. Except six months ago n-1 was n and the boosters were busy ruini

Did you do 5-10 years of work in the year after you adopted AI? If you started after AI came in to existence 3 years ago (/s) you should have achieved 30 years of work output - a whole career of work.

I grew up similarly but regularly had eggs for breakfast, at least some of the time. Usually on toast. When eggs are cheap, that is competitive with cereal or pop tarts. I would have hoped that better access to nutrition information would h

Eggs have traditionally been an extremely cheap protein staple. A typical pattern might be to have two eggs for breakfast (a whopping 120 calories), boiled eggs for lunch/snack (another 60-120 calories), and of course baking, but I wil

The 5% number is fudged, much of the increase over 2% comes from civic infrastructure investment. They’re fluffing the numbers. Most EU defense spending isn’t on US equipment (only ~35%); I don’t get where the European victim mentality is c

Only about a third of European defense spending goes to the US. Europes struggles to ramp up production have been an ongoing story for many years now. There is still about a trillion dollars of NATO defense spending to replace if Europe doe

The US is underwriting European security (and by extension various European welfare states). Do you really want to block the import of arms and financial aid to Ukraine? If Europeans were serious about their sovereignty they’d have made ver

It’s tough when there’s a war going on and the EU countries don’t really want to pay the true cost for their defense.

I’m wondering if HDR means something different to me, because I see HDR images all the time. I can share HDR images via phones (this seems to be the default behavior on iPhone/Mac messages), I can see HDR PNG stills on the web ( https:

It probably depends on the codebase, but I find the best motivation for writing solid commit messages is reading commit messages. Tools like gitlens make this really easy. Almost daily, I use commit messages and history as part of understan

Depends on the doctor. My doctor at One Medical proactively ordered an ApoB test just to be safe after I successfully got my LDL in check through diet and exercise.

There isn’t a single screen I use day to day in iOS 26 that doesn’t have a major or minor defect. iOS and Mac used to do a good job with things like animations, now they are horrible. Pre-beta quality. And dark mode and accessibility settin
