Partly considering moving from Safari to a Chromium browser because I had no idea how much faster the full screen video transition was

Quite a few have asked which robo vac I landed on, and (not sponsored!) I landed on the Dreame L40 Ultra. Under $500 on BF sale right now and has pretty much every modern feature you'd want. Only gripe is I wish it was shorter

A plant growing from a little peanut

A plant growing from a little peanut

I was trying to figure out what kind of plant was growing next to my ginkgo and I finally dug it up. My neighbor feeds blue jays peanuts, and one must have dropped a peanut into my plant bed. Nature is wild

Connect to HDMI from your Mac - Apple Support (CA) Mac computers can use an HDMI cable or adapter to connect to a TV, display, or other HDMI device.

TIL that M4 Macs (but not M5?) support HDMI CEC, could be cool for a home theater PC (I don't think any PCs support this?) support.apple.com/en-ca/108928

Picked up a new robot vacuum and it's remarkable the progress these make every few years. Some of my favorite tech, period

They're normally more of an implementation detail than a standalone data structure I believe

App Store Logo 3D (iPhone app icons) by christianselig MakerWorld: Download Free 3D Models Boost MeBoosts help me get more filament so I can do experiments like this :DA 3D model of the App Store logo showing it isn't just three sticks, but actually a really clever 3D mashup of 3 tilted...

Apparently it doesn't make much of a difference per those with M5s ;_;

Saw a bunch of posts wondering how the App Store logo works (is it just sticks??), so I made a little 3D printed visualization of the 3 tilted app icons that come together to make it, it's really quite clever!

Makes for a fun desk ornament too ☺️

Curious for folks who have gone from an M1 series Mac to an M… higher: does Xcode's AI autocomplete load any quicker on the newer chips? I yearn for Cursor level speed but I assume Xcode is trying to do it all locally?

My spooky Halloween surprise was… after a half decade it looks like one of the mini LEDs in my XDR finally gave up the ghost. 575 to go 😒

Anyone ever do a good writeup on using VS Code or Cursor in lieu of Xcode? Seems capable but curious how folks improve the base autocomplete (ideally to match Xcode's) plus warnings/compiling

Two comparison screenshots, the above shows Codex nicely applying a diff and asking for approval, the below screenshot shows Codex claiming it is impossible

Okay I give up: how does Codex permission model work? I want it to ALWAYS ask for approval like this. Normally it does great, sometimes it just claims it can't do this anymore despite /status being identical

Claude is so much dumber than Codex but the tooling is so much better
