1910: The Year the Modern World Lost Its Mind

Good piece comparing the anxieties of the early 1900s, an era of great and rapid technological change, to the present time.

In “The Vertigo Years: Europe 1900-1914” by Philipp Blom, he describes how turn-of-the-century technology changed the way people thought about art and human nature and how it “contributed to a nervous breakdown across the west”.

“Disoriented by the speed of modern times, Europeans and Americans suffered from record-high rates of anxiety and a sense that our inventions had destroyed our humanity. Meanwhile, some artists channeled this disorientation to create some of the greatest art of all time.”

I like asking questions during code reviews. It's key to remember that the PR author is the expert in that moment. Use it as a chance to learn from them, while guiding them to validate their assumptions.

I'm not sure if I will really be using it all that often but iphone mirroring feature made me smile. It's quite cool.

Some developers, when presented with a new library, immediately say “We need to build an abstraction around this before we use it.”

You don’t know what abstractions make sense yet! And you may not need an abstraction at all.

Avoid abstracting things you haven’t used yet.

Had no idea Spotify Mac app didn't support Spatial Audio but Spotify Safari Web did. Sound quality feels way better on Spotify Web using Safari.

Is Spotify not delivering or is Apple playing little nasty games as they do.

Hard to disagree with this. The only configuration that allows me to get 64gb ram costs 5k euros. Insane. #macbookpro #m3

Wow I thought this was only happening in the Vue ecosystem (and Nuxt) and definitely didn’t expect to read a similar story in React.

[Mark Erikson @acemarke]

As a library maintainer in the React ecosystem, I'm getting pretty frustrated by the churn around React Server Components.

Really starting to question whether the touted benefits are worth the pain being inflicted on lib maintainers:

Don’t buy stocks for your retirement fund, buy Apple Vision Pros.

A factory-sealed iPhone 1 sold for $63,000 this year, 105x the original price.

If an unopened Apple Vision Pro appreciated at a similar rate it would be worth nearly half a million dollars in 15 years.

[Hakan Tuncer @hakant]

Happy to see Apple Vision Pro cooling off the AI hype tweets. It's been sickening.
