The Jetsons lied to us

Mac OS X first public release was 25 years ago today. I remember the date well because I graduated college a few days prior. Not an Apple fan anymore, but I was so excited at the time that Mac was finally getting modern OS features & a unix-like backend for real web development. It was a huge deal!

Good on Anthropic for standing their ground. Claude is the only AI product that I use on any kind of regular basis, and I will keep doing that.

Being a software engineer at Stripe sounds like the worst job of all time. Just rubber stamping AI slop all fucking day. *Fuck* that!

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, CONTENT FOR KIDS? 😭😭😭

Modern minimalistic design is definitely extremely boring. I miss how beautiful icons used to be!

Wikipedia sections of an article. 1: early life and career as a pirate. 2: archbishop of York.

If you're looking for a sign to switch careers: this is the sign.

Beautiful!

Does anyone even care anymore? 15 years now since the last book was published, and 99% of people hated the final season of the show.

Trying to imagine something that could be bloopier than this:

Impossible.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

BROOOOOOOOO

BUY THIS GAME IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED IT YET, IT'S SO GOOD!

"You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought: 'wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them?' So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."

I cannot recommend acupressure enough when you have a headache or you're feeling nauseous. Those $20 mats on amazon work great, as does just simple pressure on your wrist tendons. I've only recently discovered these, but what I wouldn't give to have known about them decades ago!

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Is there a web browser that adds useful metadata to file downloads automatically, e.g. the page URL where the file was downloaded from? If not, it seems like it'd be a pretty useful feature? @firefox.com @vivaldi.com @developer.chrome.com

2023 tweet screencap: the person asks "what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?"

i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

An AI browser whose only feature is detecting the nasty medical pictures you inevitably see whenever you search up even the most innocent medical issue you may be having, & hides them behind a click-to-reveal box with an AI generated description, so you only see them if you ***really*** want to.

Fitts's law - Wikipedia

Looks like this update broke Fitts' law on the workspace and vivaldi menu buttons. Please make them clickable from the very edge pixel when the window is maximized! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitts's...

okay @ballxpit.com is the most fun i've had in any video game this year. inspiring!

Google Finance getting an overhaul after like... 15 years of literally zero updates? I don't know why I find that so funny, but I do! 😅

Chrome's adblock dying has really just shown how bad ads have gotten now huh

This appeared and fullscreened my window, hid my cursor, for clicking on a youtube download link lol

old people are just not built to handle this

ZUCK IT

The lawyers undoubtedly made off like bandits like they always do, but this is the first time I've gotten more than maybe $5 from a class action lawsuit. Next time I'm at the grocery store, I will be able to afford 4 grains of rice, instead of 3.

Imagine being paid to do this 30 years ago. 🥹

Are there any video games with dice-based enemies like this? Could be a fun idea. #gamedev

He looks like a creeper with arms though 😅

Claude helped me figure out that fetch() requests show up in Firefox's network tab only when keepalive is OFF. But WHY?! Chrome shows them no matter what, FF should too!

On top of some other weird bugs I've seen recently, it feels like FF is becoming the new MSIE 😑😣😱

WHY DOESNT @firefox.com SHOW FETCH() REQUESTS IN DEVTOOLS NETWORK TAB WHYYYYYYY

Origin and referrer are technically different but for all intents and purposes, they are the exact same thing. Seeing this finally confirmed my suspicious, and further testing proved my hypothesis: Elements inside of an <iframe sandbox> will not send a referrer header.

Origin header - HTTP | MDN The HTTP Origin request header indicates the origin (scheme, hostname, and port) that caused the request. For example, if a user agent needs to request resources included in a page, or fetched by scri...

I'm not saying that it shouldn't work this way, I'm just saying that it should be documented. The closest I found was mozilla's docs discussing various scenarios when the "origin" header might have a null value, and it mentioned sandboxed iframes. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...
