You nailed why Apple chose to let people uninstall - that would be crazy if you could soft brick your phone.

You can just uninstall the app

Did you try running the prompt multiple times? Sometimes it misses a few times but then nails it.

Really inspiring story. Why did you pursue school so late in your career? Just to prove to yourself that you could do it?

I recently went through this and conda handled the python deps pretty well, but the nvidia cuda stuff was a massive pain to get the right things installed. I think it’s safe to bla…

Took me about 5 years to build good work from home habits.

I can't overstate how much this extension has benefitted my work life. It's an absolute game changer.

Any examples? I always found it easy to grok but I'm not at a very high level so I'm curious where it gets hairy.
