You know you're getting old when you just discover the iOS Display Zoom feature and you feel like you've got an entirely new phone.

Great discussion in this episode, worth a listen for any software engineer looking to improve the clarity of their code

If you work in a code base that feels heavier than it should, @donmackinnon.dev explains why the real cause is often unnecessary structure, unclear layers, and too many ideas packed into simple problems. Catch up on his Maintainable episode with @Robbyonrails.com: maintainable.fm/episodes/don...

I think we should all agree that we can stop giving out water bottles now. We all got 'em. Our personal water transportation is solved. Ok, thank you, bye.

macOS 26 feels like the Duplo version of an OS that once succeeded in converting an entire population of engineers and power-users, convincing them to shift their entire workflow over to an ecosystem with an unknown future. This only looks natural on a Mac in a brightly colored foam bumper case.

We're on the road to billions of records, but for now we'll settle with successfully supporting precise searches across hundreds of millions of records with sub-millisecond response times. This is unmatched transparency in tuning and scale, and it's available to you now—for free. #devtools

I'm unsubscribing from your mailing list not because "I don't recall signing up" but because I know for a fact I didn't sign up.

Searchcraft was designed for performance. It's quite literally the fastest engine in the galaxy, but today we've hit plaid with Searchcraft Core 0.9.0. Cache is now available for sub-millisecond response times across hundreds of millions of documents. Well done, @donmackinnon.dev and team. 🚀

Ship like you’re putting on a fitted sheet. Pick a corner and go. You’ll know fast if it’s wrong… way faster than trying to get it perfect on the first try. 50/50 odds. Ship it! 🚀

Cool. Instacart’s recommended recipes are all AI generated. My latest rec… Rice. Ingredients: Rice. These followed by the banger recipes: Rice with Butter and Peanut Butter on Rice Cakes. These are not recipes. These are ingredients. The bar has dropped so low for any excuse to cut jobs.

If your content or post tells me something "isn't about [blank], it's about [blank]," then you didn't use your own voice and you're doing the bare minimum. You probably also happen to be saying this while telling me your business is different or better in some way. 🤦

I'm dreading the day that #ChatGPT is woo'd by the semicolon and dumps the emdash. I like writing; I love my semicolon. Please don't take this from me, GPT. Don't force me to write differently just to prove I'm human.
