Depends. With all the web agencies I've made, the only code that belonged to customers was the actual website part. Any of the "jigs" that we made for our workflow was not part of that.

And contractually, any code I made was my employer's if I made it during office hours. Some even made a claim for code I would've written that during my employ that would be "competitive". Luckily, there was a massive difference in what I would do in my own time versus what they did.

Fun is desirable.

It doesn't sound that surprising, does it?

You can do specific apps on Apple too, though. You can select the entire category, or expand it and select individual apps.

One of the most infuriating things about recommendations engines is the way they handle non-English music. Maybe it's not with every language, but as soon as I listen to a Dutch song; the engines will recommend me ALL Dutch music, regardless of genre.

This. If this was a 65k sedan, I would understand. With a normal infotainment system, that is. Not this "looks like a race car" stuff.

If I had to spend 650k on a single car, I wouldn't buy this.

Agreed, I like the design. It just feels horribly misplaced as a Ferrari. It looks like a daily driver car, but the entire instrumentation looks (to my layman's eyes) to larp as race car.

If the dashboard was set up for a normal person and I could see this be a great sedan. But as it stands, it just seems horribly out of touch.

Here's one thing Apple did well on. Their screentime settings also work in the browser. It could be better, but at least it's something if you set up your kids device properly.

Like how browsers made a do-not-track feature that got ignored by websites because there was no consequence?

I've understood it as obsessive optimization to the point that it's a mental health problem. Case in point, looksmaxxing.

I've seen the sentiment come up a lot, and I've talked about it with a buddy a lot.

For all the issues people claim to have with iOS or Android, they really "just work" compared to the shit we had to deal with back in the day. And I don't even mean bugs, but UX just wasn't as sleek.

I can find a pdf of the TTRPG I'm playing that's hidden deep in an iCloud drive by simply opening spotlight an typing the approximate name. And the same works on my iPhone. Apps that create documents for me hide their file structure, because it's all abstracted away from me. It works, and I don't have to think about it as much.

You still have kids that start fiddling with tech, but only out of clear interest. Not as a necessity.

I remember a conspiracy nut telling me "the truth", saying not to believe what the media told me, and do my own research. And then proceeded to point me to a few conspiracy influencers that were telling him what to think. It was very ironic.

To be fair, some people will always default back to "the Jews" any opportunity they get. That's not specific to this movie.

I don't let AI touch git anyway, and I always review the diff after it generated stuff. If it modifies my documentation, I always want to check if it messed with the text instead of just added formatting.

It reminds me of the footage of Doom running on a pregnancy test. And then it turned out it was another computer just displaying to the build in AMOLED display.

What was supposed to be a cool achievement is rendered pointless when one of the key elements is offloaded elsewhere.

They did add nuance to that quote a long time ago. It's a good stance, it's fine if someone knows something to be true. But other visitors of Wikipedia don't know that, so anything that's added without a source is questionable.
