Nitpick: It’s macOS, lowercase m.

> AI-generated artifacts (like "smart quotes" or em-dashes) I write from the keyboard using “smart quotes…” It’s so much more beautiful.

This is interesting. I’d very much like to see a code formatter do that kind of thing; currently formatters are pretty much inflexible, which makes getting structure out of a formatted code sometimes …

Unrelated: why spaces inside the parentheses? It’s not the first time I see this, but this is incorrect!

My first reflex when I see anything “solved” by AI is to go straight to the comments. This time again, I was not disappointed.

For Swift there’s even a project[1] that allows running scripts that have external dependencies (posting the fork because the upstream is mostly dead). I think it’s uv’s equivalent, but for Swift. (Al…

I would have loved for Package.resolved files (Swift) to be considered in this post.

“Claude gets it” No. It does not. It does not understand anything. Stop anthropomorphizing bots!

* Only works on chromium browser for now. ** Works badly even on chromium browsers (granted I was doing weird stuff, but the animation did not work properly). I estimate that in a few years we will ha…

Mostly the failing events (e.g. the Messages app failing to keep the first word of a message when typing rapidly after sending a message) are, I think, due to Apple using Catalyst for these apps. Cata…

I don’t mind Liquid Glass either to be honest. I kind of like it even. I also completely agree regarding software quality, which is abysmal (I am sufficiently aware of the internals of a lot of things…

To be accurate, it’s between negative gains and infinity. Personally I do not trust for a second self-reports anyways. They are bound to be wrong.

Completely unrelated, but what’s with the spaces inside the parenthesis here? It’s super weird (and leads to incorrect text layout with a standalone parenthesis at the end or beginning of a line…)

It did not work at all for me on latest Firefox (macOS).

It apparently only works correctly on chromium-based browsers.

I should do the same book in Swift; it would be a very interesting project! I wish I had that kind of time…

Oh. I retract my comment, I just read the code. My Dark Mode extension just sucks.

> Respects light/dark mode Not really… using js to change the CSS on the go is not a good practice. Why does it matter? Because of the “dark mode” browser extensions. They often use the presen…

Next step will probably be that apps will require a specific entitlement to be able to remove the quarantine flag from files, I guess…

How does this compare to Swift?

I would love to be able to say the same but I’m literally the only last person in the company still not using AI to code (if anything for ethics reasons, but I also truly do not need it at all), and I…

For instance if I push 10kloc that are in a lib I would have used if I were not using AI, yes, I have pushed much more code, but I was not more productive.
