Outside of the clever semi-benign technical aspects of this: this is really quite sickening to think about.

Sure, We will stop our LLM from decoding obfuscated code by… forcing it to “think” about suicide, self-mutilation, and killing people. This is just philosophically unsettling to me.

I don’t know what software industry I wanted to live in. But it’s certainly not this one.

Numbers is brilliant simply because of independent freely-movable tables

It looks so much better than the grid enforced by Excel.

You can also join the iOS 18 public beta to get the update.

How can I install iOS 18.7.3? The settings app only shows 26.2 which I do not want to install.

Did you need to go through CE certification to get your product on the market?

I have some ESP-based hardware ideas of my own (which include custom PCBs) but the CE certification is prohibitively expensive..

You don’t have to wait for the iOS navigation animations to finish, they’re designed to be fully interruptible.

Why didn’t google just use a Unicode private use code point like apple does with U+F8FF? ()

Can we please go back to making usable prototypes and testing those for usability, instead of just throwing something together in Figma, showing test subjects a static image and asking them to find the send button, then asking how cool it looks?

Software designers left to their own devices always end up turning up the “wow” and “cool” factor, because that’s the only thing they can do.

I know the “design is how it works” line is tired at this point, but come on folks, this blobby colourful interface looks like a Fischer-Price toy.

The experience as CEO of a company with 10e2-10e3 headcount is a lot different than the experience with 10e4-10e6 headcount.

Thanks for the insight, I’ll take a look at those people.

But how does “there are specific, actionable things they can do to fix it” mesh with the declaration that people with ADHD are part of a community of neurodivergent people who seem to actively push against the idea that they need fixing?

I feel like I’m going mad.

Is ADHD a debilitating condition that can be consistently and independently diagnosed, with verifiable symptoms and clear criteria as to who _has_ ADHD and, more importantly, who _hasn’t_?

or is it a loosely defined group of behaviours that all people experience at different severities at some point in their lives, which have all been grouped into a nebulous so-called disorder (although many neurodivergent people now don’t like it being called that) so that doctors can quickly and efficiently work through the ever-growing mountain of patients who struggle with concentration in a world that is constantly and systematically trying to distract them?

I don’t want to insult people and I don’t want to be rude. But the more I read about ADHD, the more it feels like a meaningless diagnosis to absolve people of the responsibility to work on their concentration, and absolve them of blame if they can’t.
