Notes

I’ve been coding in JS for who knows how long and I just wasted an hour not realizing .sort() is mutative and I should’ve been using .toSorted() instead 🤦‍♂️

Now Apple seems less opinionated and more customizable there’s really no alternative companies to go to for people you want a highly opinionated platform as a phone or desktop OS.

#WWDC is one of those times that I’d normally miss twitter for all the sass and jokes, but I’ve manage to follow enough fellow sarcastic devs my timeline is full of all the good stuff.

Good hustle, gang.

Gotta say, I think the liquid glass stuff looks fuckin dumb as hell.

The absolute best part of this is pop up Godzilla

Maybe I’m just getting old, but all these game trailers from summer games fest just blur together for me. Amazing graphics are everywhere now and all have very similar aesthetics

Except for that game about puppet boxing, that looks fucking dope

First criterion collection dvd added to the collection

This is the best looking video game I’ve ever seen

I find it nuts that iPad doesn’t have a built in way to remote into a Mac. Like the Mac to Mac experience with screen share is amazing, if they just ported that over to the iPad it’d be amazing.

In light of Airbnb also wanting to be an everything app:

Having a deep pang for late 2000s UI design right now

Finally reading Alan Holinghurst’s new book Our Evenings and its just sublime. He is the master of capturing weird british subtext where the unspoken parts are the loudest and often most damming.

TIL Apollo client cache operations block the main thread

My brain: wow I feel great after that run and some stretching

My brain, later: let’s never do that again, doesn’t seem worth it

There’s that old saying about “would you rather have the tests or the source code” when trying to rebuild something.

I think there’s probably something similar with “would you rather have the specs or the slack channels talking about the specs” for feature work.

New Pimoroni Spectra inky impression has some great colour replication but oh my is that refresh sequence intense

Unsure if I can make it this year but it’s the best conference around so you should all add the date in your calendars and follow a @ffconf for when tickets go live.

The Blue Prince is an amazing game and i desperately want to talk about it online but i also don’t want spoilers.

Picked up this big boy while up at my parents. Classic strategy guides are one of my true obsessions.
