Buying a MacBook Pro used to be so easy. High spec or low spec.
Now @apple sells a model matrix where everything is a trade-off to cost compensate for something else.
“Matte is better” vs “Glossy is better”
50% of the time you’re wrong every time.
Universal truth: grain of sand in the hinge absolutely ruins this form factor. Never getting this.

I really do think `linked-parameters` will change the Icon System game on websites.

It means we can use `<img src="/icon.svg">` (caching! lazy loading? alt text, srcset, so much!) and have FULL styling control on the inside. It's all upsides.
PSA ➔ iOS 27 Connectivity Assist turned itself on which uses cell data to “boost” wi-fi. Ugh.
On average, I’m at home 24/7 with no-cap Gigabit wi-fi.
It spent my cell data to empty. Thought the chip was dead b/c nothing worked outside.
Turn that off: iOS ➔ Settings ➔ Wi-Fi
Nothing — I mean nothing — has made me want to pay for YouTube Premium more than unending ads for/against local political candidates.
These no-impact positions have more airtime than Taylor, Beyonce, and Zendaya combined and it’s unbearable.
Dog Mode is nothing. Cat Mode is forever.
I promise to recite this tweet at @ChadMoran’s funeral.
The best part of real estate listings is when they calmly present the insane remodel choices.
Nice kitchen, lots of windows, swapped the pantry for a glass shower. Or maybe it’s both?

PSA ➔ Don’t change your font smoothing so it’s different than 99.999% of users. You’re going to put bad UI into the world.
It seems cool until you encounter a website using Raleway typeface at 100 weight at 11px.
Like wearing a chain so thin it’s invisible.
I’m a little embarrassed to post this since everyone else probably already knew, but @adamwathan just told me about this command:

Log out and back in. I've basically been living with a blurry film over my XDR display for years. 😭
PSA and FML in one ➔
Clicking “Restart to update @GoogleChrome” does not restore your incognito windows because of course it doesn’t.
All the application states I queued up for easier design tuning must now be recreated.
America.gov ➔ Can you file a tax return?
No, it cannot.
It’s the one thing every American must do annually, and it's so amorphous and tedious that most pay for help doing it correctly.
Me — Explain this bug as quickly as possible.
AI — It was a smoke alarm wired to a light bulb instead of a siren.
Me — Explain this bug like I'll actually understand the answer as quickly as possible.
I received zero GIFs for my birthday.
40 is exactly as pop culture foretold.
I am 40 now.
