3.78 GHz for a phone chip! I remember getting a desktop clocked at just over 1 GHz and thinking that was the fastest computer I've ever used. These phone chips are almost 4 times faster, and there's like 7 cores here, with 5 clocked faster then 3 GHz. Absolutely crazy when you think about it.
Talk to anyone working on the Go language and they'll tell you about the JSON parser they built. Maybe the CSS designer equivalent is making their own CSS reset. 😏
Oh, interesting. That’s a good explanation as to why OpenAI et. al. would want to make a browser. And if they do tout it as being “AI powered”, then it kinda makes sense that Google would do likewise, as a defensive move to keep marketshare.
Enjoying listening to the latest Talk Show with LMNT (I'm about 67% through it so far). Especially liked this part about Safari, and not just because it validated my feelings about it. 😀
I wonder if the prudent course of action for iOS app developers is to hold off from releasing their redesigns on day one. I wonder if iOS’s new look will be overwhelming for users and having an app that’s unchanged for a week or a month could provide them with something familiar to them. 🤷
If you asked me today, I’d probably call this game “rock paper scissors,” most likely due to my consumption of American media. But growing up, I do remember calling this game “paper scissors rock.”
I found Jason’s position about Apple adding gambling odds to their sports app a little odd (no pun intended). Not to say that he endorses it — he definitely does not — but I would’ve thought he’d recognise that people buying Apples products expect a premium experience. And that adding such, one might say, “vulgar” features to their app, degrades that experience.
Or at least this probably how I’d feel about it. I don’t watch sports, so this has little impact on my experience. But if I did, I’d probably find the whole thing rather dirty. I can’t stand all these awful sports betting apps.
Shout out to Daman, who helped me with my recent podcast dramas.
