That's a great suggestion! And while there are some really nice options (copy as css, copy as Figma layer, permalink...) it took me forever to see them way down in the left corner in the light gr…

Oh wow, they've really... updated it. There are some neat features but man it's confusing.

This is really well said. It feels like a new Apple CEO who views investments in design as frivolous. There are valid points that Reddit needs to improve and adjust to be a healthy business but recent…

I don't have a third party app, either, but I do care that a business values its customers and partners... And I'm really getting signs that Reddit feels its only customers / partners a…

Astro is adding (optional) client-side routing. I’m excited about that.

Yes, normally I'm a little adverse to abstractions over HTML, but HTML for email is so convoluted and non-standard that I think in this domain it makes a ton of sense. There may be a world of dev…

Thank you for these recommendations. Can’t wait to listen to both episodes.

Agreed that Europe & US manufacturers will lose Chinese domestic market. Any data to show Chinese EVs taking over Europe though? Haven’t seen that happening.

Seems like but then why the interest from Waymo in an Uber partnership? They already have the Waymo One app. I think it’s because getting users to switch or use multiple apps proves difficult.

In answer to file security: "We utilize Amazon Web Services (AWS) for uploading and storing files, ensuring robust security measures, including data encryption and access control." Well, sur…

I'm curious if you'll be able to turn the damn thing off or prevent it from turning itself on.

Maybe wrong word I just meant permissions were wider and more universal (for say location access or notifications) and now we’ve learned to make each granular permission opt in.

It will be interesting to see how the data & AI conversations evolve. A bit like smartphones, I’m scared we’ll first see an explosion of features then some backtracking to figure out the security …

It's hard to remember sometimes every project is building both technology and community. Technical merits of the different approaches aside... this is a calm, kind and well reasoned response to a…

I thought Drew’s email was fairly poor written as these things go. Trying to Amp everyone on the future of AI for the company at this moment seemed odd. Also I always hate “to those departing…” as if …

My gut is that they mean AI generated comments vs AI focused topics. I did see at least one account that was posting a generated comment seconds after each submission posted.

At the time, they really wanted to pivot from a computer company to a device company after the success they found with iPod. Remember at first they didn't even want to allow 3rd-party apps: that&…

But it’s actually not a great song. It IS very impressive for the technical accomplishment of just how much it sounds like Drake & The Weekend. I think 15 million people have listened to it for th…

Inception: I couldn't really see the image about too many ads in Windows 11 because TechRadar had it all covered up with an Axe Body Spray ad.

I’m not saying there isn’t an issue, but you’d never know from this article. Lots of weasel words & assumptions. (“How many stabbings do we not know about because they missed vital organs?”) This …
