Menus | Apple Developer Documentation
A menu reveals its options when people interact with it, making it a space-efficient way to present commands in your app or game.

In years gone by i would tell people to open a PR to show their PoC in practice Now with code generation being so cheap I think this is dangerous advice, it sets the wrong expectation
There seems to be a crazy spam wave happening right now. LLM generated replies that sounds quite natural but are not related at all to the parent post. I have a post with 16 spam replies all from different accounts, they all have the same vibe like they've been generated with the same prompt

🪟✨ New in Glide v0.2.24 I added the ability to always float windows by matching on their app bundle id, title, or accessibility role
![```toml
# Always float macos preferences
[[window_rules]]

float = true

Has anyone managed to squeeze a 4+ drive NAS into a 10" rack? Can it be done in 1u? Or do I just accept it'll have to be 2u?

With any craft it's never just the things. It's always people plus things. There's a metaphor for AI in there somewhere.

ARIA Pattern guide seems to suggest that menus should always focus the first menu item but in my experience that isn't the case. It's not how macOS/Windows works and I'm hard pressed to find any UI on the web that implements it this way Anyone have insight on this?
I posit that anthropic ran mythos against curl back in April when they were doing their PR around it, found that it didn't produce any huge findings, and subsequently "delayed" access to the curl team because of it Classic selection bias in the reporting around this new model I'm sure
