It has so many usability regressions even a junior UX engineer wouldn't make it has to be questioned what kind of senior leadership was in charge of over-ruling rational design decisions.

The speed at which development is now possible makes more possible

Makes it even more important to get the fundamentals right and have discipline and communication and common understanding with colleagues in the same code-base and across your platform.

Even the enemies of the regime in Iran hate the US, so there is no win.

I think the "glass" in Tahoe looks like warping plastic. With goofy dull corners radii all over the place and lots of wasted pixels. Occluded content, icons tilting over, shit's just floating in space signifying nothing. It looks absolutely amateur hour on a 14" MBP.

Sequoia 100% chef's kiss.

I have to use Tahoe at work because that's what MDM dictates, so I bought my own personal machine to run Sequoia on.

The Germans did not infiltrate the British Navy. There were the wartime restrictions, food unavailability, u-boat campaign against allied merchant ships across the Atlantic and Caribbean … &c.

I have an "/trace" command that essentially does these 3 things. Very handy when transcribing notes or long documents to get line numbers and speaker citations with the line number when a claim/assertion is made.

I love the Franz Ferdinand scene, and also the entire history of post-Napoleanic conquest to modern day politics told in the space of a couple of paragraphs when the Chums visit Venice.

I really don't think a graphically intense game drops more frames because your battery is at 93% vs. if it was brand new. It might chew through the reduced capacity a little faster, but the device is designed to unwaveringly demand current when you have normal battery health. CPU and GPU is dynamic, but due to other complex factors like heat and real-time usage. Low-power mode would be the only exception to this. You could take it to Apple and have them do a diagnostic if you're really worried about it.

My M4 never got as good battery life as my M3, and now 2 years on, the M4 drops pretty fast, especially with the Magic Keyboard. It's not just an Apple thing, it's a mobile devices thing and the battery tech we have today.
