I pursue insight, then make things simpler and better. I enjoy writing correct, high-quality Go code. Minimalist.

How do they compare to the 13/15/16” MBPs from 2016-2020 era (Intel CPUs and 4 USB-C ports)?

It works so seamlessly on macOS at 6016x3384. What a delight.

Interesting that its HDMI is 2.0 and not 2.1. Hopefully it's still possible (for those that really want) to connect modern 4K TVs at 120 hz via the DisplayPort 1.4 output.

It's interesting how this part of the trade-off changes when using float16 for color components (as is common when HDR is involved) rather uint8.

Good timing that Safari 27 adds support for srgb-linear and display-p3-linear color spaces.

I'm using it ocassionally - whenever I have time to do further WebXR development beyond what I've already done, and when an interesting new immersive video or 3D movie becomes available on it. I'll sometimes use it to relax and catch up on any new VR180 videos on youtube.

For other work or entertainment that doesn't take advantage of its spatial features, I tend to revert to using a computer with an external display. The display in the Vision Pro cannot quite match the resolution and HDR headroom of the external display I ended up having (a Pro Display XDR). Maybe if it didn't get outclassed by my external display when displaying 2D content, I'd have additional motivation to use it more often.

Maybe time passes at a different rate for it, making it an easy "mistake" of not accounting for that for it to make.

This part in particular stood out to me, and I liked it very much.

More infrastructure than content, but in principle it’s capable of hosting Go packages, complete with a simple issue tracker and code review system. I use it myself to stream notifications from multiple sources (GitHub and Gerrit).

I’ve noticed something like this while playing the game Hollow Knight: Silksong. Most of the time when I was trying to beat a difficult boss, I wasn’t trying to beat it while it’s hard and would take a lot of effort. Instead I was working on making beating the boss easy (which was hard). So typically by the time I would beat a boss, it did feel like comparatively little effort was being expended.

A difference there is no one's claiming the machines in the factories are going to reach AGI levels of intelligence within some years.
