Thanks for sharing, Andrew. This must've been a nightmare for you. I am happy things are going the better way now.

There's a huge difference between 7 hours of straight sleep which your body decides when to wake up from, and 7 hours of fragmented sleep which is constantly interrupted at the worst possible time. Every single night.

Just upgraded from a 12 mini to a 13 mini with more storage. I intend for it to last another 5 years.

Yup, see it as well.

From sindresorhus:

You can run the following to check if you have the malware in your dependency tree:

`rg -u --max-columns=80 _0x112fa8`

Requires ripgrep:

`brew install rg`

With the hopes that Apple engineers are scanning this discussion:

- Using the iPhone to scan documents from Finder has recently stopped working on the second scan. I need to restart my phone to get it to work again.

- iPhone mirroring is terrible: laggy, UI glitches, drops click events, scrolling is a nightmare. This is when it actually even manages to connect.

- Often, with Airpods on, lowering the volume, shutting down the iPhone display and putting it in my pocket quickly enough will entirely turn off volume. If you happen to increase the volume instead, you'll get blasted with maximum volume in your ears.

- Use vertical tabs on Safari for one day. You'll see it actually crash a few times. Not to mention the UI glitches. - Open the App Store on macOS. It first opens empty, then the UI controls show up, then it flickers the entire UI. I am convinced it's a Web app.

- In System Settings, most of the sections you click have a delay in rendering. Nothing feels snappy in that app. I can actually click 3 sections quick enough for the second to never even be rendered.

- Sometimes dragging an application from the Dock popup menu into the Trash does nothing, even though it appears to have worked. I often find that it wasn't deleted at all, that I have to open Applications folder in Finder and hit Cmd-Backspace to delete it.

This is what posting sleep deprived gets you. I was referring to the cli[0] and server[1] components, which have most of the meat. Sorry for the misunderstanding. That being said, I'd love to know which severe bugs disrupt your usage.

> It works well though, particularly over SSH and devcontainers, although it has severe bugs that they refuse to fix, and it isn't open source so you can't fix it yourself.

VS Code dev here. Would you like to share that list of severe bugs? Also, can you clarify what exactly isn't open-source in the entire VS Code with SSH and devcontainers flow? It's disheartening to read this, knowing that this simply isn't true.

Hi author! Cool site. It was odd getting a "hi hacker news would you like to subscribe to my UI mailing list", but OK. But it was really not great seeing this [0] when I clicked "no", given the whole thing is about UI.

Side note: I love the succinct format on this link. Well written and to the point: 1 minute to read. You don't always have to create a blog post with unnecessary information just to post your opinion online. And sometimes a tweet just isn't enough.
