1Password filling in Safari running iOS 27 beta has been pretty bad. Just experienced problems in Edge now too (corporate-enrolled device). So, it seems like an Apple issue. Some websites just don’t get input from 1Password for the selected creds.

It took almost 2 years, but I finished Balatro

YouTube is so obnoxious. My partner likes to watch vids of people camping on the TV and naps most of the time. I’m sitting there on my laptop and partially listened to a health food infomercial for at least 20 minutes. When I finally hit Skip, YT decided “nah, you need to watch ANOTHER ad first.”

There's not a single sign-in process on the entire web that I hate more than Google's. - No, I don't want to use *that* Google account for this - No, I don't want to be forced to sign in with *that* account before I can do anything - Just fucking let me sign out of *that* account

I just saw a supposed AI “expert” claim that Claude will imbed a watermark when you ask it to fix spelling errors in text. It can be such a powerful tool to smart people, but omfg people are morons.

My hatred of yaml has subsided now that agents write it for me.

I gave impeccable a try to improve a new feature in React Native. I don't think it really does as much as it likes to claim it does, but it did make several improvements on a11y and clarity. I was a bit frustrated to see command recommendations from `audit` that produced no changes whatsoever.

This bug really sours the "faster, lighter, non-breaking updates" Expo tried with SDK 57 and React Native 0.86 for me. I ate a large percentage of my monthly Cursor budget tracking it down. github.com/react/react-...

iOS 27 beta / RN 0.86: performance.timeOrigin + performance.now() drifts from Date.now() by accumulated sleep time · Issue #57595 · react/react-native

Description Per the High Resolution Time spec, performance.timeOrigin + performance.now() should approximate the current wall-clock time (Date.now()). On React Native 0.86 (iOS), once the app proce...

TIL package.json scripts section is in the Expo Fingerprint calculation unless it's excluded...before you want to make a change. Yay.

People are justified in complaining about Apple's App Store approval process, but Google is equally as stupid in different ways. I've waited longer for an update approval Google, even though Google started first, and seen Android traffic on our review user come in at random times throughout.

GPT 5.6 Luna is fast, but it's clearly fast because it makes no attempt whatsoever at following existing patterns in a codebase.

I'm over here pre-filling user contact data into a form for them because _of course_ the ticket is going to ask me to do that. But, do I really need to show them I have their phone number when 99.99% of people who fill this out won't provide that?

Just used Formity to make a multi-step branching form within React Native and I’m impressed. I used the Zod + React Hook Forms integrations as I was using those anyway. It seems like a lot of boilerplate, but it’s not much more than RHF itself. Highly recommended.

Can't connect my iPhone (iOS 27 beta) to Xcode 26. Can't use Xcode 27 because my org hasn't updated to macOS 26.6. When the boss asks "why can't you just use your own iPhone for testing?" THIS IS WHY The last iPhone they bought for my testing was an iPhone 7.

PDX in Portland is so chill compared to SeaTac. It’s beyond just being fewer people.

Just found out about the Women’s Professional Baseball League (WPBL). Very excited. MLB is openly hostile to baseball fans and isn’t worth the time. I just hope they don’t gate keep it behind TV subscriptions.

Stacked PRs is a weird solution to a discipline problem. But, I’ve worked with teams that just can’t get “always rebase and push atomic commits” into their brains.

Great talks from @ccheever.com and @mazenchami.dev at #ChainReact

How many blog posts have you seen pop up on GET vs POST vs PUT? The most senior dev in my org: "POST IS FOR GET AND PUT IS FOR CREATE"

This is bullshit.

Turned a PC on for the first time in 600 days according to Windows Update. Oh, right, this thing had a WiFi antenna to the motherboard. We all know I’m not going to find that thing until I order a replacement.

Whew. Not sure if it was my internet or Apple Music went down for a few minutes. I thought my org blocked it and was ready to grab my pitchfork.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but using Software Mansion's Argent MCP to try to profile screen loads through an iOS simulator doesn't produce any useful information due to the amount of noise. Having much better results with temporary metrics for Sentry and testing physical device + release build.

Nothing is more infuriating as a software engineer than to point out, provide proof of, and summarize the risk of a data security vulnerability in an internal HTTP service you have to get data from…only to have the business ignore it.

I'm pretty disappointed that Socket.dev's Firewall only supports NuGet on the Enterprise plan.

I've settled into the "Auto" setting on Cursor for 95% of tasks at this point and the cost is way down, but it's frustrating how dumb it is sometimes. Using Composer 2.5 directly helps, but it's still a noticeable drop in quality from Opus 4.7/4.8. Unfortunately, they seem to be all-in on Grok now.

vi, vim, vite. What are we even doing anymore?

Why is anyone surprised that McConnell is withholding information about his competency? His entire political career has been ignoring rules, laws, policy, and decency for the benefit of the GOP.

9 months to the day since I submitted a tech approval request to purchase/use Sentry for our mobile app and it's *finally* in production.

I've been way behind on E2E testing for a long time. But, I've always been on board with the belief that you shouldn't use test IDs to validate in tests because your tests should focus on how the user interacts with the app and you'll have better maintainability when you don't separate the two.
