@daringfireball The opening sentence appears to have a typo: "in detail, about certain of the UI changes..."
@daringfireball Just noticed it’s the same in Overcast as well.
@daringfireball I think the name for a “jack of all trades” you were looking for in the episode was “polymath”? @gruber
@robmille Yep, that's it. At least, that's the word I was trying to think of.

@daringfireball I got interested hearing praise for the Manage Filtering shortcut in the Classic/Unified setting dialog, so I clicked it.

Guess we’re not testing or modifying the design for the SE. I didn’t need to see the top of the letters. 😉

@daringfireball Icon-only buttons still need to be localized because they have accessibility labels.

@daringfireball Your discussion made me mess with liquid glass settings again and I found a setting I think looks very good, legible while keeping all the new fun! I don’t use Reduce Transparency or Increase Contrast, or even Display & Brightness > Liquid Glass > Tinted. So essentially I am using maximum glassiness and transparency, and I get all the neat little refractive touches.

BUT I turned on Show Borders in Accessibility. (Light Mode is almost classic-Mac-like.) #iphone #ipad #liquidglass

@daringfireball good grief…less than 10 minutes in and you’re already ruining about Tahoe again. It’s getting old. We get it. You don’t like it.
