@Dimillian I work in a pretty well-sized iOS codebase and hit multi-second delays for every new session and side chat. I’ve also experienced some UI bugs that just seem to never get fixed (or UX changes but stays broken).. Help me help you.. can I record telemetry?

@dadederk @klemensstrasser Hasn’t OpenDyslexic pretty much been debunked as lacking any scientific rigor behind the rationale for its design?

I used to be proud of being the Apple nerd who knew the latest news, the oldest trivia, and owned the latest toys. What I now understand that I’d rather be building and putting all my love into my work than continue thinking about the quality of Liquid Glass.

@martinlexow Mark my words: Assistive Access mode is a brilliant long play… We’ll all need “easy” versions of our vibed apps when we’re old.

Claude just revived all my 8th grade ClarisWorks homework I thought was malformed and lost for good..

[Greg O. @Greygoh]

OK so it’s due to an older version of Xcode building the app..

For reasons I don’t understand, the iPhone Air will incorrectly report its UIScreen bounds as 402x874, which is actually the iPhone Pro’s, but only with an App Store or Alpha build.. I cannot reproduce this with a build directly from Xcode…

Update: the Steve Jobs theater!

[Greg O. @Greygoh]

I am 98% sure that in the F1 movie, the first "press junket" scene is located in the Cupertino Developer Center's theatre..

@joekndy If only it was a faithful recreation of system 7 and not a hodgepodge of several decades! hahaha

@jacobtechtavern Are u saying you recommend keeping the plist managed by Xcode for the duration of a project that’s heavily assisted with AI, then? I ran into the same as you, but found lots of errors from Claude Code trying to directly edit these so the explicit info.plist seemed the best soon

[Greg O. @Greygoh]

@mitsuhiko @steipete Thank you, Mr Hipster. You’re doing Claude’s work.. wait, I mean “God’s” work.. I mean… wait what do I mean?

[Greg O. @Greygoh]

If you include implicit statements—where he stresses that the best ideas often come from the “quietest voice” and warns that you’ll miss them if you’re not listening—the count rises to 5 well-documented interviews.

[Greg O. @Greygoh]

Jony Ive has explicitly said he worries (or is “terrified”) about missing great ideas from quiet/introverted people in at least 2 on-record appearances.

Every investor is telling you to be a founder. You can't complain, IMHO, about not getting rewarded for an exit as an employee. If every take employee was a founder then we'd not have these dilemmas...

[Greg O. @Greygoh]

A little sad to see my old stalwart @SwarmApp undergo a redesign that seems to have taken away its lovingly-crafted Typography and Color...

[Greg O. @Greygoh]

@BenGeskin @josethevrtech Amazing! How close are we to being able to take two phone recorded perspectives and reproduce a splat like this?

And how did web manage to get this rendering before native?

@AppleTV WHAT ABOUT ACAPULCO!???
