"That wasn't flying! That was... falling with style!"
This is not a flying car. It's a falling car. It's good at falling though.
Yes, see my comment in this thread.
In Xcode, go to Window > Devices and Simulators in the menu bar (or press Shift+Cmd+2), then select the Simulators tab in the sidebar to open the list of simulators. Here you can select and delete simulators.
In my opinion, AI belongs in the application level, not the operating system level. I hope Apple will revert their decision soon.

Why would they want a person with subpar intelligence as the mascot of their rebranding?

It looks like Tahoe is about to become the new Snow Leopard.
Today, even most Apple devices are round rects.

Funny how that short article has a sentence where an article that should be there is omitted.
"The word <unicorn> starts with vowel letter..."When I see this, I always assume the author to be Russian.
I remember finally getting what closures and
reduce are when I learned Ruby in 2008 for my first Rails job.
A pivotal moment on the same level as when I finally understood how recursion and pointers work in 1995 in my first semester CS classes (taught in Modula 2), two concepts I had only ever read about in programming books, but not been able to understand on my own.
In 2024 I did Advent of Code in Swift, without using mutable state, custom data types or loops, and used reduce rahther generously. [1]

Reverse centaur at an organizational scale.
Judging by what people who worked closely witb Sam Altman say about him, you should not trust an organisation led by him.
Sprint is a terrible misnomer, it should be iteration. It's about seeing work as a series of opportunities to gather feedback and apply the learnings to the way future work is done.
What part exactly? I hope not the one about DHH publishing essays promoting far-right talking points.
It works fine for me, I use the column view (unless I want to sort) and don't use groups (uncheck Edit > Use Groups). Back in the MacOS 7.5 days I had a system extension that gave me the column view I knew from my university's NeXT workstations. For more complex file operations, there is Terminal.
Why not just use the original title of the blog post? It's "Merchants of Insecurity".
Not to forget the fact that websites nowadays can be real memory hogs, are dynamically assembled on your machine and burn cycles on pure eye candy UX like animations and transparency. The web's focus on design and cleverness over content and functionality is partly to blame.
Why do intelligent people still use X? Thanks for the xcancel.com link!
This is a good example how modern UI with its dynamic elements, animations and transparency is just a different kind of bloat. It appears easier to make something flashy than to make something simple and good. The real cost shows later.
We nearly destroyed our planet to get there. Technocrats here applaude the new technological achievements that make life a little easier (less boring?) for the top one percent while willfully ignoring the associated costs for everyone else. Manufacturing these at scale will only make things worse. We are approaching peak decadence ever faster.

Reminds me of when everybody had to create ugly greeting and invitation cards using clip art in the '90s. Same level of "artistic expression".
I know the article is not saying that this is art, but this type of slop is flooding all the channels.
In my opinion the current near free availability of AI has nothing to do with democratizing the creative process, it is harmful, and should be priced higher to prevent more damage.
I think these videos are a great way to visualize what is wrong with the "personality" of LLMs: they are shallow, unoriginal, overconfindent.
The videos convey this in a more vivid and direct way than any text answer could. I often have the thought that if Claude were a human colleague, I'd avoid having to work with them.
I don't understand the many Teenage Engineering references in this thread, this design has no soul.
