I'd be very surprised if the very-similar-looking design of corgi's product breaches any copyright law, copyright of design or layout is much more finicky than copyright of code. T…

I use https://rectangleapp.com/ and enjoy it. I have shortcuts to move windows to the left/right half of the screen, and cycle between monitors. This, combined with native cmd+tab …

I know that anecdotal experience is definitionally just that, anecdotal. But I've had a handful of attentive London cabby experiences (and enough in-Waymo experiences) that give me…

recently (past couple of months) they've been much more aggressive in the ways that make a good driver a good driver - confident and assertive when they should be. for me this has …

If you were choosing between getting into a Waymo or a car driven by a human driver (where Waymo operates, for a route that Waymo would do), the data shows that the Waymo is safer.…

it's an application built with webgl that plays audio, rather than just an audio player

media sound is generally unaffected by the silent mode toggle, which apple suggests is only for notifications. but the toggle inconsistently affects media, muting some things but n…

I think there’s a difference between what’s expected/acceptable for library code vs application code. Types like this might be hard to understand, but they create very pleasant API…

Not sure how other stacks solve this, but with GraphQL the backend defines a `User` type with a full set of fields, and the client specifies only the fields it wants to query. And …

In an ideal world you'd have one source of truth for what the shape of a User could be (which may well be a discriminated union of User and AnonymousUser or similar). Without fulls…

GraphQL is another one, with schema introspection and codegen for queries and types.

Navigation isn't usually "undo", conceptually.

I think with good presence (being able to see what other users are doing) and an app that isn't used offline, conflicts are essentially not a problem. As long as whatever is resolv…

I've used PixiJS and react-pixi-fiber to write a declarative 2D WebGL renderer in React with excellent results. PixiJS also has a Canvas2D fallback when WebGL isn't available. I wo…

I think "tons of code and maintenance" is an exaggeration for this effect, once it's done you'll rarely have to come back to it. Many people value creating and using products with …

I'm a huge fan of this. Apollo doesn't have it baked in as a pattern like Relay does afaik, but I do something similar manually in Apollo, inspired by Relay. Deleting code automati…
