Mr. Code
Craig HockenberryGetting the feeling that Apple has no fucking idea what it’s doing with Liquid Glass.
And that’s going to make it a rough fall for everyone.
Thank goodness for UIDesignRequiresCompatibility.
Mario Guzmán@chockenberry It is my understanding that this is just a temporary tool for development and will be later removed as Tahoe matures... probably like a few point releases out?
Adam Overholtzer@marioguzman @chockenberry The implication was that it would removed in the next major release, but if the overwhelming majority of devs use it, who knows.
David Beck 
@marioguzman @chockenberry they explicitly say it will be removed in the next major release. But they’ve made those kinds of claims before and there was enough pushback that they extended it. I would not be surprised at all if some big companies either pushed for it to get extended or negotiated their own exception.
James Milne@chockenberry It's a real Emperor Has No Clothes moment. Just sat here, SMDH.
Chris Gervais 🎸🥁💻@chockenberry Is this a Maps moment? Will Apple issue an apology that Alan Dye refuses to sign, so Tim has to do it, followed by a “resignation”? 🤞

RejZoR@chockenberry Windows Vista and later Windows 7 used it on limited amount of surfaces and it actually looked really nice. Apple is just slapping "glass" on EVERYTHING. Some menus and apps look absolutely horrific to a point you can barely use them.
Droid Boy 
@chockenberry I am having hard times judging what they do becaus the lack of knowledge of what is happening in the teams working on it.
Mike Piontek@chockenberry There’s no macOS equivalent of this right? I didn’t ever hear a mention of it. I think I’m just going to stick with the current version Xcode for a bit.
@robotspacer I haven’t tried it yet, so I don’t know.
If not, you should be able to use the new version of Xcode as long as the deployment target is macOS 16.
rezmason@chockenberry @robotspacer Forced tech adoption is fashionable now. I discovered today that Google remapped my Android phone's SOS/restart/off UI to activate Gemini instead. The enshittiest enshittification I've ever shitnessed. It makes me want to empty a cement mixer into a data center
Joshua Leung@rezmason @chockenberry @robotspacer
Maybe an power surge coupled with a cement mixer!
arclight@rezmason @chockenberry @robotspacer I recently undid that misfeature. The power button is now the "side" button (not to be confused with the other two buttons in the side of the phone...)
@chockenberry Good point, thanks for the reminder!
Steve Troughton-Smith@robotspacer @chockenberry that certainly works for Mac Catalyst apps so it might be systemwide?
mdznr@robotspacer @chockenberry The same Info.plist key should also work for Mac apps using UIKit, SwiftUI, or AppKit.
@mdznr Thank you!
