Agentic development still requires human review and human ownership of PRs. This is vibe coded. Seems precise to me.

My anecdote is that that has never happened to me and all IMAP clients seem fairly stable to me. Do with that information what you will.

Me neither, I also only use my headphones. I've only had to use mono mode on amateur youtube videos where one of the audio channels is just missing. It has never been an issue on big productions.

Perhaps they're using a weird media player?

Yes, that does seem super complicated compared to the plug and play setup 99.9% of people are using.

Also in any other major OS afaik. It's a standard accessibility feature.

The font site is 9pt. It's just small. Not sure where someone got 12px from. The measurement is resolution independent, yes.

I felt the same about typescript early on. Now I really like it as I can easily program logic for hours without running the app once. I'm not sure I could do that without typing.

It also makes reading code a lot easier. I can see where something is used, where it's defined, etc etc. It's much easier to get around.

You're right, it's not possible to set a custom search engine on safari. An extension is the only way. Blame apple :)

So you argument here is based on something that hasn't happened, but just something you pulled out of nowhere. Or was this meant humorously?

Why would apple identify the domain used for unsubscribes as in use solely for being a bounce tracker?

Please elaborate on this, as I'm not exactly sure what you mean. The email deliverability problem is a side effect of false positives in spam filtering. Unless you have a proposal to completely eradicate false positives?

Senders that apply dmarc and want their emails to be forwarded should use dkim. Forwarding a dkim signed message doesn't break dmarc at all.

Sometimes it's not about competence but about priority. If email is something a business does as a side thing and not a core thing, and if email keeps working without changing anything, there's no need or priority on setting up newer things. From a priority perspective at least.

But yes if it's a recent setup, or email is a core part of the product, any competent sysadmin should have been doing this.

This is just a standard unsubscribe header. It's added by the sender specifically for this purpose and has nothing to do with the UI you see. Not everything is AI, but it being the default assumption is funny to me.

Contacts and calendar are nice to have in the same place as email, because of needing to email contacts and because of calendar invites. Then again, if you use an email client you can use a mix of providers even for those features.

I'm not sure I see the need for any other additional apps next to email. Let alone the feeling of being forced to.
