Don't get distracted, it's easy enough by putting something like this out to make people focus than focus on the real things happening.

I feel like part of the "magic" they continue to capture is how they decided to run their business with the hardware they create. I feel like it helps keep the brand of Nintendo from changing to far out of their control; while also anyone hacking Nintendo hardware and games can always be seen as exactly that hackers oppose to say a PC game released by Nintendo where the games would simply be modded.

Also the nostalgic crowd is already eating up everything they put out... What a strange world it would be to start buying Mario, Zelda and Metroid games on steam. that 30% cut from steam just isn't something they're willing to give up I think.

This is something I've gone through and started to think about and eventually try and help others with. Working with mulitlingual people I noticed a tendency to use negative words "disabled" instead of "enabled" which always made code have !disabled everywhere. Tried the enum approach as well; Love focused writings like this to distill a lot of information into an easy to read form. the new concept for me is the `with` as in to apply functionality by extending a `with` class (this is inside an angular project). Also using types for values so when passing a value in for methods you don't get a blank true/false you get a human readable thing which is useful for debugging and building. Only care about optimizations later if it will ever matter.

I'm given pause every time I come across an article from this site; the detail and "playful" nature of the content is so good.

In Canada you can't call yourself an engineer unless you have some kind of association behind it; the title holds meaning including partially accountability. Something that is lacking in the tech world. I'm not saying I want to live in that world but also I worked hard for the knowledge I have starting in the IE days of web dev; it was hard earned experience making things work across the web without loosing performance. The idea that we have developers out there now getting paid higher than me that are clueless on how auth works, how the browser works, why css and browsers maintain backwards comparability for a reason.. well it's sad; but good for them I guess?

The behaviours of developers as well being beholden to their managers rather than the craft; meaning not saying No we will not move forward without proper unit tests, or pushing back when business demands quick corner cutting solutions.

Anyway, decades of bitterness. I wish we had associations to uphold some level of accountability on developers as much as protect developers. I think things would be a lot more expensive and slow if we did that though.

Fundamentally I agree with your take, not just on dev side but just the web/dev/produce' a culture of not giving a shit.

You should try using it, using react is mad in 2026 for me.

I never understood the problem with the rxjs, its a challenge to learn for those not used to the pattern but its very nice.

Regardless signals is also fine, we have ways now to interop between rxjs to signal for those looking for it:

https://angular.dev/api/core/rxjs-interop/toSignal

Personally the http client workflow is fine. Usually lives in a service and exposes the needed values in any form we want.

People may like it; I do not. But who cares?

Well said, and handled.

Casting from ios is useful for me.

I appreciate the way this information is brought up and the points being made. I feel it brings a context to the Bills conversation that's hard to touch on. It makes it easier to understand on a social/technical level that's challenging. It's easy to shrug off "loosing privacy is bad, but bad guys are bad too" argument.

Pedantic comment: There is no such thing as an Apple iWatch; they finally did it right and named a product without `i` in front. Just Apple Watch. My guess is the level of detail the "signals" can be seen is what matters. Apple Watch is good for some things but its not constant its only checking in from time to time to get a reading. Purpose built device probably has higher details (faster polling or something) than a small thing on your wrist.

What if tickets where given with devices; the device would hold the hash value of the facial recognition and zero data would be stored outside of the device. have open 3rd party reviews of these processes and made public so we keep our world safe but without the bullshit excuse that "privacy has to be given up for security".

I believe you, It think I'm also the same; however for me at least, I feel like I can "think" of what something looks like. This is hard to explain since its very "personal" way its easier to say "i can see a square" nope I can't see anything but I can "think" of a square.

The whole imagine a ball in your mind. Now tell me what colour it is. No idea you tell me :D I can pretend and make up a color or go with what my gut tells me which is the most common color my brain was probably trained on.(red). but in reality I don't see any ball.

Hmm, chat not found.

I found the labeling "potato" "mid-range" and "High-End" very clear.

I'll 2nd this; Obsidian has a new core feature being beta tested called "base" it allows for filtering on properties and other attributes of notes into a table type view, allowing display and editing of those properties in the "base" view. This is a huge step forward for a lot of users wanting to make the jump off of Notion.

I never heard of the movie, haven't seen any advertisements (YouTube, Radio, friends).

Was noticing issues with npm install, now it makes sense..

I wish we could go back; A lot of googles UI/UX is based on the next billion users experiences. I'm unsure how much influence this has on a day to day design choices they make. My experience right now on a 1440p monitor is 5 visible videos, 2 video ads, a ton of tags that I can't turn off for finding videos.

There are a ton of great UI/UX choices they've done over the years too; I just wish we had more options as a users.

I've done this around the same time and agree. Now google is used as a service (Firebase for example). The only thing I haven't been able to effectively shake off is their Calendar. I know lots of other options are available the issue is connectivity with others.

and very high contrast / sharp.. interesting.

I'll just leave this idea out there, but https://obsidian.md/ now allows for in app, opening of links, which lets you have your notes + apps all in one place. Depending on what you're doing that workflow can be a huge boost.

The "Web Viewer" was added in this release: https://obsidian.md/changelog/2024-12-18-desktop-v1.8.0/

Just wanted to let you know, for unknown reasons this statement really resonated with me, thank you.

My feelings initially was frustration but after some time I lean more towards the general comments here, where its better to remove something that miss-represented the "action" of the request.

I have never noticed any kind of acknowledgement from any website I've visited in years with Firefox and this option on.

I want to do something to help signal "No thank you, I don't want this" messaging so the "harms user agency" feels relevant but if its not respected on the other end whats the point.

Where is this information about respecting come from? What tools or metrics do we have out there to observe it was being respected or not? Is it your feeling or do you have anything to back up what you're saying?

~ genuinely curious about statics on the subject.

I've enjoyed building with SveltKit reading markdown files and processing them with it, into a static hosted site.

Not a chance. The body has to adapt and start producing chemicals naturally again which it hasn't. You'll also have to go through the addiction side effects of the habit which can be hard for your mental health. In my experience it's taken about 2 weeks for my body to adjust and get rid of the side effects... but then again sips coffee I've not stopped for to long.

Regardless of how people are feeling about Apples products, any news is better than no news so I'm sure their not to hurt by the media having mixed reviews. They operate their own way regardless of media. I'm sure if the demand for the products slowed down they may stop producing yearly incremental changes but enough people are out there upgrading from older models (I have an 11 pro and this years 16 looks very tempting to me for example). Perspective.

This line of questioning doesn't invite any kind of positive conversation. Why not ask more politely or even just change your question so it invokes thoughtful answers.
