The linked article is clear as to why the S and X don’t need to be in Tesla’s product line

> Tesla’s far more popular models are the 3 and Y, which accounted for 97% of the company’s 1.59 million deliveries last year

Similar story with Better’s leisure centres. A frustrating app that only needs to display a barcode, and it doesn’t even rotate.

How come you’re nesting?

>> Grouped aliases/imports/requires are a mis-feature in my view. They save a few characters when typing but they complicate searching for module uses and refactoring.

> Totally agree with this. I prefer to not use aliases most of the time, or to explicitly list out each module path separately if they are too long to fit inline. All preferences though.

recode[0] has a formatter plugin that reformats grouped alias/import/requires

There’s an automation that’s triggered when you receive an email. Coupled with Mail’s “Send later” feature in iOS 16 and some parsing, you can send messages at any time you want.

Another one for the alternatives list is Kilo[1]

It's a wireguard based kubernetes network overlay. I use it to access private services in my homelab cluster from my laptop, phone, etc.

Thank you — the demo restaurant wasn’t set to be open 24h

I bought a burrito during lockdown in the UK, but it was such a miserable experience.

The menu wasn’t particularly intuitive, and took me a few minutes to pick out what I wanted — then I was greeted with a registration page. Email, password, phone, address, you name it, they wanted _everything_ — I only wanted to collect. They didn’t take mobile wallet payments either! Manual card entry!

I feel like the restaurant recognised they had a problem, but contracted out a solution to the lowest bidder that actively went out of their way to design the worst UX.

In the end I actually went ahead and built a platform that’s not user hostile.

Im going to rewrite the landing page and do another round of marketing soon. The page that I wrote in an afternoon is far too negative in hindsight. It needs a positive spin.

Looks like the project is maintained under a different account now

> It is now hosted at the github site https://github.com/FDH2/UxPlay (where development and user-assistance now takes place)

Oban[1] from the Elixir ecosystem leans on Postgres for job scheduling

The web experience has been reduced to an indexer. Following the HN link, there's an option to open the app store, or navigate to the subreddit's index. Even choosing to navigate to the index and open a post directly displays the same prompt.

My expectations mirror your own, but a few of Jeff's thoughts imply that they won't take this path:

> App bars become UINavigationControllers. Standard controls just need light branded touches. Lists can align with modern UITableView and list-based collection view APIs. Menus are just UIMenus.

> And the best code is often no code :)

> The time we're saving not building custom code is now invested in the long [...]

There's barely a lightning ecosystem left now—the only remaining products are the entry-level iPad, AirPods {,Pro, Max}, and the computer peripherals.

This was outdated last time I checked. It doesn’t cover launchctl‘s v2 CLI interface with bootstrap/bootout subcommands

Anecdotally from myself, colleagues, friends, blogs, and random forum posters, 4 solid hours of knowledge work is right on the nose.

I work on my own time, starting almost immediately after waking up with the sunrise. I get in 3-4 hours while the world is quiet leading up to lunch time; then I'll cook some lunch and go training. Post-lunch work is autopilot admin or operation tasks. There are days where focus is amped up to 11 and the brain fog doesn't set in—but those days are rare.

I'd say that your feelings of "cheating the system" are ingrained by a culture that doesn't apply to your profession.

I use migadu for all my side-project-esque domains because of their pricing, and their service has been wonderful.

Unfortunately I’m still using another provider for my primary domain because I can’t get real time push notifications on Apple Mail with Migadu—they’re limited to 15 minute fetches for best case scenario

Certainly not out of fashion. I’m approaching 30, and I’ve spent 2 and a half years in and out of a hostel in London. Fantastic life experience

Congratulations on another cool product! I happened to build something to scratch the same itch a couple of weeks back, using Stripe Checkout, iOS Shortcuts, and serverless functions: https://baildon.co/writings/contactless-pos

That's right—in Apple's library they're completely fine. You can add them to your own library and they're fine. Then one day the copies in your library have their metadata messed with and everything is scattered with incorrect tags
