The most frustrating aspect of Siri's quality decline is that super-basic things inexplicably stop working. For years I have been able to say "call <wife's name>" and Siri called my wife. A couple weeks ago she s

This helps, but it's not nearly enough, thanks to the terrible (and continually declining) quality of predictive tap zone enlargement for keyboard keys.

This is actually a necessary feature for a touchscreen keyboard to feel usable, and it's been in iOS since day one. The problem is that it has gotten not only much worse over time at predicting which tap zones to enlarge, but it also f

Long-time iOS user here. My motivation for iPhone has always been "you pay more for fewer features and customization, but the UX is more polished." For the past 5-ish years, the UX has consistently gotten considerably worse. Not

Your original reasoning makes a lot of sense, and I wasn't even thinking about that aspect. Thanks for clarifying!

I got excited at the headline of this post because I love the idea of community maintained personal site directories. Was disappointed to get into the description and linked Git repository and learn that it's only for sites that have g

It makes sense. Services is their second largest division, and it accounts for just under a quarter of their annual revenue (and growing).

Love BJ Fogg's Tiny Habits! 2025 was the first time I have been able to implement and maintain a series of routines for the entire year (still going strong), and the concept of starting tiny was a key epiphany for me. I wrote about my

Thanks for the reply, and no offense taken. I've inherited some code that uses LangChain, and this is my first experience with it.

Can you elaborate? Fairly new to langchain, but didn't realize it had any sort of stereotypical type of user.

I don't even have this issue with uBlock Origin Lite on mobile Safari. I'm fully browser-based on mobile for YouTube these days. No ads, no delay.

I suspect that the people making these claims that Safari is no longer the most battery efficient are not Apple users. It's quite easy to empirically validate which browsers are most efficient by looking at the average energy impact in

I like this take. While I've primarily lived in Python for much of my career (and I don't see that changing soon), I've tried to find reasons to use other languages in at least a hobby capacity so that I can (1) keep my learn

My configuration[0] doesn't quite meet all of your requirements, but you might be able to get some ideas from it. If you delete my hacky and very opinionated color theme configuration, it's 418 lines. - I use Neovim in the termina

Are you referring to the eldoc help text in the echo area at the bottom? Hard to know without more specifics, but maybe one thing to check might be the value of eldoc-echo-area-use-multiline-p. I have mine explicitly set to `nil` because I

This is a great question! It's also a really hard one to answer. When newer developers come to me looking for a recommendation of an editor to use, I don't often recommend Neovim, and I pretty much never recommend Emacs. I do reco

I think that is an accurate assessment! It's actually the reason I prefer it. I only wanted the ability to expand to treesitter text objects and then contract that selection if desired. I almost wrote it myself but then found that plug

For me personally, there's probably too much to put in a comment, but the essence of it is: - Vim modes are prolific, but they always fall short in some annoying way (Jupyterlab-vim plug-in is so bad it's almost not even worth con

Hey all—author here. Releasing this fun little side project today, as it has been helpful to me and thought it might be beneficial to others as well. I work with Python in my day job, and I spend a lot of time in other environments that are
