Search inside settings is a baffling one because search seems like it’d be a relatively easy thing to tackle. On iOS 18 I can’t really find anything in the settings. If I go to the applications sub-sunscreen and search for an app, it’s a “n

I’m jealous of how prolific they are, with a good taste for design and number of side projects. Well done.

Wait until you find out about the new features that just make life more difficult… the product management of this stuff is appalling.

There’s been a recent scandal concerning the watering of tomatoes in Morocco. I’m sure we test food quality where we can, but it won’t be feasible to ensure all producers grow their food ‘properly’. European farmers are held to a higher sta

I have this problem with UX Pilot or Stitch for wireframes that I’ve been working on (from my low-fidelity paper ones to high-fidelity digitals). It takes so many prompts to get the model to do what I want, what’s the point? UXP costs money

One major reason for this, in my past experience, is that designers push for heavily customised components. If you go back to them with “why not use the default radio button with a bit of styling?”, I’ve yet to work with a designer that wou

Given the EPP’s result after the corruption scandals of the previous administration, I wouldn’t hold my breath. Voters like a charismatic leader, and the lovely and charming deals-behind-doors Ursula did very well.

I’m building a pay-once app, but as mentioned in another comment, the business advisors don’t believe in that model. Since I’m unemployed, I need them to approve my financial plan, and they’re really pressuring me into a subscription model.

The Finder issue can be alleviated if you include the path bar in your Finder window, at least it is so before Tahoe. So you highlight a search result and the path bar shows you where it is. Search on iOS Mail is… what is it doing? I can se

Cute, but the industry has vastly outpaced humans at gaming and abusing the brain’s chemistry. You’ve Been Played is a good book, as is anything by Jaron Lanier. For the majority, there is no healthy relationship with ‘technology’ — in th

Well, who are you ? As a voter, I’m already disappointed in Belgium’s lack of a gold standard for the welfare of chicken-laying eggs and male chick grinding. So we’re stuck buying the more expensive organic eggs. Okay, so the partners prom

A consistent argument against the deal was precisely that the Mercosur partners won’t be able to stick to the same quality standards that we impose on the Bloc, or they might but then their prices will have to go up to accommodate the added

It’s hilarious how many apps for parents now have AI. Like, couldn’t you figure out how to calculate a mean and weight quantiles, need an LLM for that?

I’m not hiring anymore, but when I was, all I wanted to find was someone that knew the fundamentals (and was a good ’attitude fit’ as per the similarly titled book). Sorry @wccrawford, I wish we could have more places that value slow, borin

I worked for them and even interviewed to be founder of one of their spin-offs. GP’s comment has nothing to do with Rocket’s model. Zero. And that’s coming from someone that despises Rocket for what they did to my workplace, the parent comp

There’s plenty of research about the fatigue and damage caused by displays, with brightness being a factor. Most displays I’ve used, at the lowest brightness, will still be fatiguing. The human eye has never been exposed to this much direct

I bought a refurbished P24-something, basically the last 4K monitor I could find that was 24” or smaller — 4k @ 27+ looks bad for me. That Dell has been amazing. Just a counterpoint :)

I would pay the premium to have just this one monitor, although I find it too large. And that’s fine for me: that different people want different setups. I’d never want a multi-monitor setup if I can avoid it, where others say it makes them

As an outsider (EU citizen), the message it sends is that they’re willing to negotiate more with China, on a product that would hurt Tesla sales. No, it won’t move the global needle, but the warmer positioning towards China is interesting

The ban on salt isn’t silly, for a long time pebbles were good enough to prevent black ice, and perhaps even more effective than ice. Donating potatoes that were about to go to waste might cause waste elsewhere, but what you propose is that

It’s a fairly large display, it could be that it doesn’t advertise itself as high-DPI? But KDE had no issues with it, we could install Ubuntu easily.

My EliteDesk G4 idles at 11W with 4 drives, so it’s not too bad. I really wish we could get something cooler, but it does the job beautifully. I see 150+ for the Dell, ouch.

My partner works in the field and we once talked about this. I think the idea is that individual consumers’ and businesses’ batteries can serve the grid as needed. For example, if your car is fully charged and you don’t need it today, it ca

“Why don’t you just” is precisely the Linux thing that irks me the most. Why don’t they just make it obvious? Why doesn’t the installer just figure it out or ask me when it launches? I agree that that would help, but it was easier to just
