@mattgemmell I took such a instant dislike to Liquid Glass that I ordered an Android phone within a week and I'm now trying it out as my main device. I'm an iOS developer by trade, and have been for over 13 years (and an Apple user for a lot longer). Completely agree with your assessment.

I installed the iOS 26 public beta on my main phone a couple of weeks ago. I took such an instant dislike to Liquid Glass that I'm writing this on a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7, and I also have a Pixel 9a on the way to try out.

Is this thing still on? I took a huge break from Mastodon, and I don't know if more people hang out here or on Bluesky these days. I have literally 1 follower over there though, so I guess I'll carry on posting here for now?

Finally installed iOS 26 on my primary device. I normally don’t have a problem with UI updates, but I instantly dislike Liquid Glass so much that I’m honestly about to order an Android phone to try out.

@JustMeDevin this is neat! It’s a shame the charging port is on the side, so the screen won’t be the right way up. I like the wireless charging of the bigger Yoto, except I can always hear a high pitched whine from it. Will you be sharing the STL anywhere?

I can't believe I just now learned this in Xcode

You can select some text, cut it with ⌘X, select a folder in the navigator and paste with ⌘V, and it puts it in a new file

And all this time I've kept all my code in one giant file

I was grossed out when Apple got to image generation in their WWDC keynote, and I was grossed out when I read that Applebot scraped "the open web" to train their AI model, with publishers only being able to opt out after the fact. Disappointing to say the least.

Apple Details Its AI Foundation Models and Applebot Web Scraping

From Apple’s Machine Learning Research1 blog: Our foundation models are trained on Apple’s AXLearn framework, an open-source project we released in 2023. It builds on top of JAX and XLA, and allows us to train the models with high efficiency and scalability on various training hardware and cloud platforms, including TPUs and both cloud and
