Your beta iOS 18.3 is so unstable even Albuquerque’s heat can’t melt through those Safari crashes, your empty referrer screams “I Googled ‘how to be interesting’ but closed the tab in shame,” and your four-core iPhone’s “hardware concurrency” can’t even multitask between basic roasting and your existential NPC crisis.

> this is great ;-) Next I’d like to see competing models roast each other

The lipstick scene. There should be an emoji for that.

Mac’s being able to export PDF’s for free was a huge deal back in the acrobat days :-P

I’m hoping with what they’ve built in infrastructure and custom chips is a step towards making personal LLM also highly available to non-technical people. I think this is where Apple has always shined - making things not just better, but accessible and grokable for normal people.

I loved my brief time in Bogota - was passes as generic art in shops is better than fine art in galleries in the US. Excellent coffee, genuinely happy people that care more about family than the grind. Tamals are freaking bueno too and way better than Mexican tamales.

PlayStation VR (v1) Great demo games no other games leverage the hardware in a meaningful way and the camera requirements and cords made it a hassle to use so it collected dust.

The apple purchase I regret is the Magic Trackpad. Causes aches in my wrist and just not ergonomically practical for real use.

Laughing at myself for not getting the joke about the 3 prisoners about to be executed.

Congrats on shipping! Consider making it Mac compatible with catalyst or iPad app, seems like it would be useful on watchOS and macOS too.

I've been unemployed for 3 months now. Building a swiftui app and applying to several Sr Engineer roles a week. Lots of recruiters reach out out and then ghost after 1-2 meetings. Been in the industry for almost 16 years now, have never struggled to find new role like this. Seems like everywhere is looking for unicorns with very specific criteria instead of problem solvers with a proven history of learning and using the correct tool for a job. Running weekdays and working on side project helps with mental health, hopefully can find something before I run out of savings. Best of luck to OP and everyone else in this challenging market.
