I can't believe why perfectly fine, simple Contacts app was massacred 😵‍💫

All those HUGE avatars makes no sense, they slow everything down to a crawl even n fast devices.

Also Spotlight showing recent messages & photos first instead of actually useful data like contact informations.

ai is genuinely incredible for building tools and prototypes. i use it every day

but there's this weird thing where people who never shipped anything at scale now think the hard part of software is writing the first 200 lines of code

it never was

Omg yes! I can't comprehend why multiple windows somehow seems like something hard to do with Electron, why is that?

Is it because websites are inherently "single page" and that limitation extends to web apps on desktop? 🧐

Over the last few days I shipped 2 major features for http://thecommander.app that would shock the pants off 99% of Electron apps out there:

1. Multiple windows – I just love it. I can keep all sessions in tabs or separate windows and lay out my work on the desktop however I want. #macos #macdev #agentic

2. UI session restoration – this feels so natural. I can close the app and relaunch it at the exact moment where I left off.

Oh, this is so much true! I learned *a lot* this way. Knowledge that for sure helped in the future on real Macs.

I don’t think for example that any „real" Mac users even saw the text-mode boot sequence of OS X, knew what „kext” is or how to troubleshoot various low-level stuff on it.

Granted though, a lot has changed since then.

The MacBook Neo is such an interesting machine that it coaxed a thousand-word-essay out of me: https://samhenri.gold/blog/20260312-this-is-not-the-computer-for-you/

I could not expect anything else 🤷‍♂️ Interesting if it would be "just" the #iPadOS multitasking, or something more custom.

To be honest I wouldn't mind full split-view multitasking comeback along with #iOS 27 on #iPhoneFold and #iPads as well...

Also maybe it's time to abandon „#iPadOS" name as it's quite meaningless anyway and always has been?

Konrad Kołakowski Mar 10

Almost every tech YouTuber reviewing #MacBookNeo tests it opening bunch of native apps and call it a day 😉

Guys! This is *not* how "average" user is using their #MacBook’s

They open web browser and tens, sometimes hundreds of tabs - treating them like a bookmarks...

On top of that few heavy Electron apps like Teams or Discord.

Those are WAY heavier for RAM & CPU than many „Pro" apps with lighter workflow.

I landed some performance improvements for the Swift type checker recently, and I'm currently finishing up the next set of changes which I hope to merge soon.

There are two main improvements. The first is a new "disjunction pruning" optimization to help skip impossible overload choices, and the second set of improvements concern implicit conversions and the constraints they generate.
