I've never had an issue with it crashing on Linux, but I've had this bug for months that causes the scrollbar to jump around. Usually it jumps up 10-20px every couple of seconds. I've tried removing all plugins, refreshing, changing mice, etc. until I had to switch to Brave.

Anyone else come across this issue? I'm using Solus.

I never remember where the "recently listened to" section is. Seems like an easy thing to get right.

Still, I prefer Apple Music's album-focused library to Spotify's playlist-focused approach.

For me, the most common scenario in which I'd want TouchID is when I have my phone resting flat on my desk. Depending on which phone case you may or may not have on your phone, the power button might be conveniently accessible. I'd prefer a version that didn't require me to lift my phone up off the desk in order to unlock it.

What content is available over 60fps? I don't think they ever released The Hobbit in 48fps, and that's the only movie I'm aware of that was filmed with higher fps.

Is this just for games?

Have you used SublimeText?

Now if Safari would only do the same...

Most icons are generally tiny. Millage will vary, but they can speed up your site. Fewer requests for a slightly large page size.

Google routinely implements, fails to implement, and fails to deprecate features that align with their company goals (i.e. namely collecting lots of data). AMP, Browser Extension Manifest v3, cookie privacy features, ad-blocking features, file formats, and many more that most people have never heard of.

Happens all the time. Without Webkit and Gecko, the web would simply be "whatever Google wants to do". Having multiple browser implementations helps balance out whatever Google's agenda is at any given time.

I really liked the feel of my 2017 MBP. It just didn't work well as a portable, every day device because the keyboard was always breaking.

Seems great for blogs and marketing sites, especially if you've got a CDN in front.

I like the concept of the tab sidebar, but I can't get over having tabs in a different location. Even though I'm fully aware that I have more horizontal screen relestate than vertical, I never remember to use the sidebar.

I've wanted to use tab groups for a while, but it never stuck because of the UI. I'm hoping this helps, and I love that they offer a sidebar layout, too.

Looks pretty solid to me. Good demos of some common edge-cases.

I wouldn't say "all" the major frameworks, though (just Angular[JS] and React).

From what I understand, they also promised a bunch of features that were never implemented. Maybe they're still to come, but it sounds like they are months away from fixing all the bugs, let alone implementing better AI and other things players complained about.

I bet it would have been met with less backlash if they delayed only the PS4/Xbox S versions. Players must expect some Day 0 bugs from games this large.

I tried it. Auto-import never worked reliably. I asked their customer support for help, and they said I should just do it manually.

They seemed like a close alternative, but if I'm doing all this work manually, I might as well use a spread sheet for free.

I feels like Heroku 8 years ago. Cheap to get started, but I never recommended it for startups with a tight budget. You can get stuck with an architecture that becomes very expensive very quickly, and that scares me.

That feels like the React community in a nutshell.

I have an iPad that doesn't have a lightning port.

I have a battery pack that doesn't charge with a lightning port, and can charge my phone without a lighting port (wireless).

When I'm traveling light, I don't need a lightning port for anything.

When I'm at my office, I can top off my headphones/iPad/etc off with the same cable I use to connect my laptop to my screen. I never have to worry about bringing an extra cable with me to work.

It's just too bad, that's all. Apple seemed like they were ready to phase out the lightning port in favor of USB-C and wireless charging. They've done such a great job with all their other audio accessories that a lot of tech-minded people like myself were looking forward to these.

Same reason they put the charging port for their mouse on the underside. It's a wireless device, and for some reason, they think that if it supports a wired mode, it won't be as special (or whatever their idiotic reasoning is).

And, why use the lightning port?! Aside from the price, choosing to not use USB-C for a charging port killed it for me. I like being able to charge all my devices off one power brick, and I'm not spending $600 on headphones if I need a stupid lightning port for the next 6+ years.

They're not the underdog anymore, they're very profitable, they make lukewarm claims for headlines that fall apart under scrutiny (the kind of scrutiny that tech geeks are all about), and in recent history have acted pretty badly towards developers.

All that said, after building a Linux machine for development and general client work, I consider Macs the best option out there. Everything from being able to copy 2FA codes from my phone and pasting on my computer, to colored tags and smart folders in Finder make my work easier. Also, Bluetooth is just a breeze under macOS.

My MacBook Pro screen has less glare, or at least better color than my LG Ultrawide in similar conditions. Even at the worst angles, I can still read everything just fine. I'm not going to be editing photos in an airport, but it doesn't get in my way when coding.

They convinced the world by pumping up the brightness and providing better color than other matte screens.

They could continue to host these services for basically free...I guess the security vulnerabilities would grow over time, making them liable.

1000 lines of code in one file. Can't get a good sense of what it does, either.

Money aside, far more people care about Photoshop than care about Homebrew. Optics-wise, it makes more sense.

I hope this next year shows Apple helping out pivotal projects like Homebrew. If they expect their own developers to be using their own hardware, then they will certainly have to make it work.

I was only a student when they switched to Intel, so I wasn't aware of any issues facing developers back then. I'm guessing they'll follow the same playbook, though.

It is sorta meaningless these days. The 3.6GHz chip in my P consistently averages at 4.3GHz, and climbs up to high 4's when it needs to. It's also much faster than a 3.6GHz processor from 5 years ago.

It's a great baseline for comparing same-generation computers, though. Without benchmarks, none of us has any idea which is faster, the Air or the Pro, or the 15".

My 2007 MBP, yes. I don't think that's true of my 2017 MBP, nor my 2012 MBA.

It's been years since Apple did away with this stuff, and nobody expected them to suddenly allow after-market upgrades.

To me it looks more like they swapped the motherboard out with their own, keeping the rest of the hardware the same.

With RAM and SSD already soldered to the motherboard, repairability can't really get much worse than it already is.

No, the point is that you'd be annoying the people around you if you were talking to your computer the whole time.

They could have afforded to pay you more, but they chose not to. You may or may not have been an outlier in the distribution of wages, but overall wages have not increased with productivity.

People still poop.

Let's be honest, "being at home" is not the reason it failed.

Ah, thanks. I scanned those so many times but I never caught it. I think I'm used to not reading the header because, as this points out, it isn't always useful.
