A ton is heavy, but not backwards.

It is ludicrous how AI companies think that having an LLM rewrite a piece of text – a headline of all things, in this case – always or even often results in an improvement.

This is a WILD take, but hear me out: Related UI elements should not appear unrelated

Thanks to the proliferation of LLM-generated summaries, I have really come to despise the word “key”.

“To be under the weather” is such a curious saying. If you think about it, weather exists above all of us, all the time.

Was talking to a friend about the state of UI on iOS and macOS... more specifically #LiquidGlass.

One thing that really gets to me is the amount of people who say "it's fine..." or "...not a dealbreaker."

But how did we come to expect "just fine" from Apple... The design powerhouse that claims "attention to detail" and is worth what now... 4 trillion dollars?

Can we not accept "just fine"? Did Jobs accept "just fine?"

To which my friend said "I hate this grading on a curve."

Yeah, same.
