i keep harping on this point because it feels frustrating to me: i can and will routinely make something like mayonnaise/bearnaise/holladaise for a nice breakfast, i'll spend an afternoon making pasta, or a whole day (or more) preparing some makhni or daal or birria. these are valorized as perhaps extreme, but like, totally normal activities—it's normal to make a fancy weekend meal, and even if people aren't expected to do this, it's not beyond the pale to routinely spend a day cooking some elaborate food for the week or whatever.

@pg i’m playing a video game right now where it has a record of the last six notifications you received in the pause menu and i have to imagine this was just somebody’s personal crusade that manifested in a star wars game of all places

@pg the mental model btw is the same if you have a phone in your hand but your laptop in the other room is open to a messages conversation, your phone may not get a notification for it, but also a siri initiated timer on your phone may not be reflected on your laptop when you return to it. the watch is just the next Frontmost Device as far as i can tell.

@scientiffic did you catch the new broadcast demos as well? https://open.spotify.com/album/5kKCZmfiHpIEIiWntTIGP7

My thoughts and prayers go out to #voyager1, which after journeying for half a century to reach interstellar space is still expected to answer fucking work emails

@mathowie i used to get this with photos i'd edit in darkroom that i shot on my mirrorless as 10bit hfs and imported onto my phone. the editing workflow would first try to expand the photo into the display p3 color space (the brightly saturated flash) and then when it would get saved, you'd have these errors that would cause them to look exactly like the photo you uploaded when they were re-shared via icloud or whatever as heifs because there were slight incompatibilities between how i assume some color data was re-mapped when re-saving (darkroom fixed this eventually). some old ones still show up messed up when resized down, but if you view them full size they show up ok.

also, just while i'm here, it's ridiculous that the author complains about caBLE, the hybrid passkey implementation that lets you auth with your phone by pointing at a qr code: if you have onboarded a new machine or have tried accessing a passkey protected account on somebody else's computer, it's wildly more convenient to use that than typing out some high entropy passphrase.

the dude ranting about passkeys mentions twice that apple keychain on multiple occasions nuked a bunch of passkeys and presumably the entire keychain while i don't doubt this happened, it seems like a separate issue from "passkeys are bad." if 1p or anything else did this, you'd complain about 1p, the problem with keychain is that it's deeply embedded in the os, but apple's sync'd passkey implementation is objectively the most polished of the bunch. it's telling that everyone yes-and'ing the post is running android or using chrome (which has inconsistent sync'd passkey support)

finally restocked my diamond crystal kosher salt supply after a long dry spell of it being out of stock everywhere

@waldoj i use dynadot, you can set your account to use yubikeys but they’re not set by default. their prices are fair but they don’t support the more esoteric tlds, their customers are mostly it seems people who buy tens of domains at a time, so lots of bulk registration deals that don’t make sense for me but i think i’ve been using them for nearly 20 years now 😅😬💀

to the tune of human league's (keep feeling) fascination "🎶 he's wearing kuhl kollusion 🎶"

big fan of the kuhl items i own but jfc their names are extremely awkward to actually say aloud "oh these pants, they're kuhl deceptrs, the jacket—a kollusion!"

@scientiffic oh that’s awesome, didn’t realize people were selling translated copies. i would totally play it on the pocket too, i just had some weird issues when i first tried loading a rom on it

@scientiffic !!! does it run on the gba or snes core??? does it support save states?

this game, man, finally rolled credits after ~60 hrs, what a ride. it’s got the heat

gonna have to wait for some other year for totality but even this was pretty cool

the only silver lining here is that because i'm porting a react redux app to swift ui, i already rely on selection being managed, so i can use that bound value, but it's confounding that focus ends up being something else altogether

i'm totally confounded by how swiftui focus works with things like List or NavigationSplitView which handles/owns kb/mouse list item selection (but, weirdly, not focus) and won't report it to descendants in any meaningful way.

@treyhunner @pg sort of a small screed on how i have contextualized this in the past, i find that jr or non-cs backed colleagues have underexamined notions about how fast computers actually are, but this usually manifests in assuming slow perf is Normal and not the result of bad planning or design. i’ve started asking people if they think a late 90s pc could do something we perceive or assume being slow on modern hardware and try to tease apart if we think the web platform is truly that much more inefficient. https://turbotime.turboteam.xyz/notice/AfkN61GtqaJzaWhD7o

got back into the rhythm of returnal again...
