It's kinda wild seeing the scales tip so far that even the Tesla subreddit now hates Elon

Update on long USB-C cable journey: bought this 15-foot one per recommendations and it's been awesome, not too thick, charges great (only loses 3W versus a 3 ft cable when charging at 100W)

@christianselig if you want one that looks and feels more premium imo

@christianselig Oh dang, I did not notice you got the 15ft one, my bad!

Also holy hell I did not know they made USB C cables that long

Love that if you delete a really really long, old, large chat in Messages, and then go to the Home Screen and return to the app, it becomes unresponsive and you cannot open the app anymore until you restart your phone

Really annoying how the use of LLMs took over the term "AI" and we had to come up with a new term for what used to be AI. AGI became the new term. Artificial general intelligence.

Now, AI is being called GAI. Generative AI.

AGI
GAI

So apparently Apple approved a knock-off of GBA4iOS — the predecessor to @delta I made in high school — in the App Store. I did not give anyone permission to do this, yet it’s now sitting at the top of the charts (despite being filled with ads + tracking)

I’ve bit my tongue a bunch in the past month…but this really frustrates me. So glad App Review exists to protect consumers from scams and rip-offs like this 🙄

@rileytestut @altstore

Why are you surprised? This is standard App Store behavior. Never gonna stop, either 🤡

Also, do you have plans to launch Delta in the US? ☹️

    @jsq If we could extend tuples this wouldn't be a problem 😿 it's like they don't want us to use them!

    objc,
    @objc@mastodon.social avatar

    @jsq I just hate having to write out Type(…) instead of just (…), even .init(…) feels like too much boilerplate to me now. Probably biased from writing so much TypeScript lately where I can just write { … } for most objects

    Anyway I really wish Swift could get a /shorter/ shorthand for init, like .(…)

    Hey folks, question: my gf works two part time jobs because the better of the two won’t give her full time due to lack of headcount.

    Anyways. She asked her manager if she could leave 15 minutes early because of a very rare scheduling conflict and her manager said “I can’t let you leave early for another job. That’s a conflict of interest. Next time don’t tell me your reason for leaving and it’d probably be okay.”

    Is this…. Okay? Or should we be kind of upset about this.

    Ah, yep. Joyless movie. What a drag Dune 2 was.

    had the same issue with masters in the air. where’s the whimsy? they could’ve at least added a few slapstick jokes and forced comedy to it in the POW camp, all the WW2 stuff is so dreary.

    Me: Swift makes it so easy to define zero-cost wrapper types, there's really no justification for using raw Strings, Ints or Bools in your API.

    Also me: If your API defines more than ~five new types you're an overengineering maniac and I blame you personally for my eventual rage quit from the industry.

    @drahardja @nicklockwood Swift needs dependent typing for string literals

    objc,
    @objc@mastodon.social avatar

    @drahardja @nicklockwood At runtime, not compile time

    Typescript's dependent typing needs some work, but it enables the type system to check the contents of string literals against a type that defines what the string can contain, at compile time

    objc,
    @objc@mastodon.social avatar

    @nicklockwood @drahardja dependent typing is more flexible and powerful than a set of predefined cases; they could work together, doesn't have to be either/or

    Imagine .foo(String) but you can restrict which values can be passed in as the payload

    objc,
    @objc@mastodon.social avatar

    @drahardja @nicklockwood That's what I'm saying. Dependent typing enables compile time checking for string literal contents.
