Yeah this describes my favorite class structure in college, where homework is just opt-in prep for the lecture to get more out of in-class time

Apple has made a pretty good business convincing people to buy hardware multiple times they should only need to buy once

I think even if they broke even on it, the amount it would improve network speed and battery life on all the high margin devices would be worth it. Except it would be hard for the Airport team or marketing team to tie those improvements to the network hardware product.

There isn’t really an existing market for this. Most people just call the ISP to install internet and someone drives over to plug the cable line into some shitty WiFi router modem combo.

It’s too hard to configure a home network for most people. Making it easy creates a new market.

Airport Pro could have been a home network gateway with a modem, router, firewall and switch combo to power your whole home network, with Apple Airport access points for WiFi and HomeKit support built in to all connected devices.

It’s baffling they abandoned AirPort. Apple devices work best on a quality home network: Apple TVs, HomePods, iPads, iPhones, Mac - the more you add the more the network is strained. And most should be on a wired connection.

LLMs are kinda bullshit. If AGI doesn’t come, the future is gonna be super annoying.

Oh you learned to be good at LLM prompts? Cool, well, now the AI is magnitudes smarter than you in every way and better at knowing what you want to know than you are. It doesn’t need your prompt skills.

Yeah and I think it’s different for AI. Like, if you learned Mixins, there’s at least some thinking there that’s transferable to new ideas. But when AI does the thinking for you, what you’re learning today is completely replaced by AI brain. Nothing you learn today needs to transfer.

If you learn react today you didn’t miss anything. In many ways it’s easier to build modern react apps because you’re not held back by old ideas

This seems like a good accessibility argument for building in pending/optimistic states with transitions. It can be hard to get this right, so with action props you can ensure the correct pending announcements happen no matter what the parent does in the callback

You have to call it inside a transition. Since the value you set is only temporary for the lifetime of the in-progress transition, setting outside a transition is essentially a noop anyway

Not any more than other people on the team. The issue is there’s too much to do and not enough people.

Oh damn, I even said “bug seems right, fix seems wrong” do I get half credit for being right?
