@morrick In case this hasn't already landed on your mat, I think you'll find this music to your ears: https://tonsky.me/blog/tahoe-icons/ As surgical a dissection of Apple's slide into UI design mediocrity as I've seen so far. Almost up to Morrick standards! Enjoy.
It’s hard to justify Tahoe icons

Looking at the first principles of icon design—and how Apple failed to apply all of them in macOS Tahoe

@morrick what do you make of the speculation that (aside from jamming AI into every nook and cranny) Apple's OS27 releases (next year) will follow in the footsteps of Snow Leopard and will be a 'bug fix' release focusing on stability? Thanks.

@davemark Please forward this to Jim Dalrymple: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hksVvXONrIo It's not decrepitude, it's Apple's software slide reaching new lows. Cheerio.

@thedalrymplereport Interesting show this week, chaps. I feel identical to Jim – Apple HW is the best in the business, but I've become so appalled by the SW that months ago I ditched my iPhone, Watch and Homepod Mini and I have no regrets. These all became a daily source of frustration that I no longer have to live with. I'll re-evaluate if the Apple executive team ever changes to include people who care about software again. I just wanted to urge Jim to take the plunge. Toodle pip.

@davemark Dave, did you and Jim release an episode of The Dalrymple Report on Friday 30th May? I couldn't see it in my podcast feed nor my RSS feed. I'm obviously having withdrawal symptoms. Pete
Hey Apple: maybe skip the feel-good WWDC video about loving developers—after a judge called your 30% cut “anticompetitive,” your 27% fee “malicious compliance,” and found your exec “outright lied under oath,” even referring the case to the US Attorney for criminal contempt.
[email protected] OK, you got me. How do I log out? Glad to see you've discovered dark web patterns.

@lapcatsoftware Jeff, have you heard of an upcoming feature in Safari 18 called 'Web eraser'? It's mention in the video in the below article. According to AppleInsider, it'll mean being able to block webpage elements. Is this on your radar? (To ensure there are no conflicts with StopTheMadness?) Thanks.
