Actually, I feel the same! The new UI is so absolutely terrible that I’ve decided to sit this version of iOS out. So I also will not buy the new AirTags for the same reason!

That’s unfair - I see no reason to believe this didn’t happen

Yes I’d tend to agree with you there. But being able to define that tipping point where something becomes “infrastructure” even if it’s still privately owned and isn’t a monopoly, is a difficult problem to solve.

Is the eternal delay bringing up the MacOS native colour picker in the list? Click on a colour to change it, wait about 10 seconds, eventually it appears. Every. Single. Time.

This is brilliant and about 50% of the top 10 bugs affect me regularly. Some (eg airdrop, mail search, spotlight search) are absolutely maddening. If this even slightly prods Apple into doing something about it, this would be a net win for

Do we though? It’s an important question about liberty - at what point does a business become so large that it’s not allowed to decide who gets to use it? There was a famous case here in the UK of a cake shop that banned a customer for want

Or — hot take — to find out that you made some silly misinterpretation of the RFC that you then felt the need to retrospectively justify.

The whole world knows this except Cloudflare who actually did know it but are now trying to pretend that they didn’t.

I feel like they fucked it up then, when writing the post-mortem, went hunting for facts to retrospectively justify their previous decisions.

I haven’t had to move the mouse near a window corner to resize it in years — I just hold down the Shift and Fn keys and the window under my mouse resizes as I move it. Strongly recommend getting BetterTouchTool for this - changed my life.

It’s a great analogy but I wish, in the video, he had been grabbing the plate and it somehow didn’t move. Then, when he grabbed the air outside of the plate it should have magically moved. That would have highlighted how crazy Tahoe is.

I just completed a holiday project this week to measure the kids screen time using an Arduino device and a web app! I got frustrated trying to get so many parental control apps to play nicely, in the end this seemed like a bolder new approa

This feels like a nice idea but the connection between the theme and the overarching arc of each book seems tenuous at best. In some cases it just seems to have found one paragraph from thousands and extrapolated a theme that doesn’t really

Trying not to be too negative but this is quite a long blog post for what effectively just comes down to using a piece of paper to measure something, which I imagine lots of us have done in a pinch. Also, nit: one of the calculations on pap

I’m just guessing but probably because it’s not just GMail, it’s likely chock full of all Google’s other walled garden nonsense. Hey, you installed GMail? Great, here’s a 2FA client for all federated Google logins everywhere too. hell i’m s

With the recent data leak of Spotify‘s entire playlist database, you might be able to build something considerably better for music discovery now!

I already doom code! I’ve always found coding a highly addictive activity and struggle to stop when I should. So for me it’s a hard no thanks :-)

Anybody know how much the price goes up, typically, after the preorder phase?

Worthy of being posted if only to serve as a reminder that unreliable genAI responses are literally being served as the first item in a Google search. That’s where we are currently re capitalism vs functionality.

Congratulations! This should really breathe some new life into the Apricot, particularly now that you have a functioning word processor.

Neat. But why would you auto-set the title from markdown heading syntax when it doesn’t support markdown? (Or any rich text in fact)

I have absolutely no idea why you’re being downvoted. This feels like exactly the sort of project that would be backed by the current Russian administration, given it serves to damage and destabilise businesses in countries that are current
