    got my first iOS app store release- it&amp;#39;s an analog film companion. Yeah, there&amp;#39;s a bunch of these, but I&amp;#39;d like to think I put a bit more design intentionality into this one than the other stuff currently available. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/film-pal-track-and-meter/id6760520627

    I think Imgur may be the staunchest bastion of millennial cringe that’s left on the internet at this point.

    one improvement can still be made and it&amp;#39;s right here folks.

    man it is wild to see how far Halide has fallen. Table stakes features missing from the big 3 release while continuing to charge considerably more than the competition. I&amp;#39;d really love to know the story- the legal drama doesn&amp;#39;t feel like it covers the code suddenly falling apart

    @morrick I think it looks like an incredible machine for $500. I wouldn&#39;t give up the mLED + wider color of my MBP display to lose the notch, but I strongly dislike its existence. I think the Neo looks nicer as a result. I wouldn&#39;t wish 4gb on anyone with a modern Mac, but I hardly think 8gb is going to sink it. It will be plenty useable, especially for the folks who this computer is being marketed to.

    Okay the correlary (of sorts) are folks who are continuing to say that Apple is magical and 8gb is really 16gb for a Mac. Cmon. No it&#39;s not. But it almost certainly doesn&#39;t matter for this machine.

    The model to include is the 5th gen model where it got an always on display and *actually* became a usable watch. Still the single best improvement to the whole product.

    RE: https://hachyderm.io/@samhenrigold/116216357692725093 The first Mac I bought was a B&amp;amp;W G3 tower in 2007. That&amp;#39;s all I had money for. I loved that machine- still have it in my attic. The ability to boost the ram and storage was nice, but I felt the limitations of that GPU and CPU every day. I was always a few models behind and that taught me what tweaks to make and what to prioritize. I wouldn&amp;#39;t trade those experiences for a brand new machine in 2007. It taught me to...

    You should be able to report posts on social media for bad taste

    @netopwibby for sure. The ability to weave together a bespoke app is incredible and there is a lot of good that will come out of that. But hoooo boy, the bad apps are REAL bad. I&#39;m working on a film logging app for my own use, and apparently so is everyone else in that field. Some of the choices being made are things I&#39;d have thought were elementary mistakes. on the plus side, it&#39;s a confidence boost.

    I&#39;ve been using Claude Code over the past month to help fabricate the film tracker I&#39;ve always wanted. I&#39;ve taken a pretty firm hand with the design and functionality, but this is still a pretty new experience for me. Would love to get some feedback or ideas from anyone who is interested! I&#39;d also appreciate any reposts or shares 🙂 https://testflight.apple.com/join/sysux8PV

    LLMs will cheefully build you Homer&#39;s car and even though they will get *better*, I don&#39;t think an LLM will ever have taste, either good or bad. Without a standard for good taste, the net results slide to bad very quickly, mostly because people don&#39;t know when to stop.
