    I've been replying continually to Mosseri's cloned #Threads posts over here on #Mastodon since mid-December, so I'm well-aware of exactly how all this works

    Or doesn't work

    In a few weeks (or less the way things are going) it'll be time to #DomainBlock #ThreadsdotNet and clear my timeline of all this noise

  2. For Apple's 50th birthday, I revived and rebuilt Bruce the Wonder Yak as modern Swift. Whether you've missed him or just heard of him, you can now invite him to graze your screen and share his wisdom. #Apple50

  3. To get started, you’ll first need to download Dash (macOS).
    kapeli.com/dash (30 day trial, also available via #Setapp)

    Then, download some of the “main” docsets & cheatsheets. Support for community and custom docsets coming soon!

    After you download docsets, you do not need to open or run Dash to use this MCP server.

    From there, add the #MCP server in your client/IDE settings using the instructions in above GitHub repo and you’ll be ready to go! #ModelContextProtocol

  4. I'm constantly amazed that Blankie is the only app in the U.S. #MacAppStore's Top 10 Free Health & Fitness apps without #InAppPurchases. Every other app either requires a subscription or has a freemium model. #OpenSource

  5. Not a big surprise, but hiding the "In-App Purchase" labels on previously downloaded apps also happens on the iPhone App Store. A friend with Family Sharing enabled confirmed that apps shared from their family members' accounts also hid the IAP labels, even when my friend had never downloaded the app before.

    #AppleDeveloper #AppStore #InAppPurchases

  6. I just noticed previously installed apps don't show the IAP label next to the download button. The app could have added IAPs since you first used it, but you'd wouldn't know unless you visit its page or use it.

    My sense is Apple knows IAP labels deters users, but why give old apps an advantage?

  7. The funniest part about releasing software is that it ends up places you never intended or expected, and by design it’s allowed to! For example, now has its own page on Softpedia and apparently so do I.

  12. Today we expect to hear from the Department of Justice in the #GoogleAntitrust case about their proposed remedy to make Google to sell #Chrome. Before that happens, here are my own completely made-up odds on potential buyers.

  13. What I hear (as an American) every time the Big Brother housemates make a shopping list:
    - 100 froozle minstixs
    - 65 crankle bapps
    - 40 joobum pispydons
    - a dozen chonion goldies
    - a box of pickled onion humbogeys
    - one jar of sweet chili gunge
    - some mini buttermilk jaffy jacks
    - two henry hippos (original kind only)
    - a tray of fancy boblin sponge with orange jimmins
    - full fat zazzys
    - vegan coriander

  14. The .IO drama is just the latest in a long line of reasons why I stopped using ccTLDs. Domain hacks are fun, and I used to have a few, but ccTLDs are always playing with fire. Read why I think boring old .COM is still king: b10g.xyz/blog/2024/cctlds-are-

  15. I think a lot of the “everyone should learn to code” efforts, while well intentioned, are going to end up being a net negative. Many of the bootcamps I see being pushed on folks seeking retraining either softball it too hard with Bootstrap and HTML “fundamentals” or go “full stack” as #MERN.

    Having entry-level knowledge in the two most overused webdev stacks is beyond useless. GPT 4 can probably write better code for those frameworks than the average bootcamper. We need more people in niches!

  16. #Oklahoma & #OHP needs to chill out on the amount of emergency alerts for non-life threatening situations, or at the very least we need Apple/Google to add more opt-outs for additional categories.

    There’s no good way to complain about this without me looking like a big jerk, but I fear that if it is continued to be overused MORE people will opt OUT of critical alerts.

    The only time my phone should be making noise against my will is if I’m in a location where my safety is at an immediate risk.

  20. Here's a quick reminder: #secession is anti-American. Officials flirting with it are endorsing treason and the abduction of American citizens.

    #TexIt isn't freedom; it's fascism. It's a power grab threatening more civil rights losses.

    I've got ZERO love lost for the lone star state, and part of me would love to say, "Don't let Oklahoma hit your ass on the way out,” but safeguarding the rights of Americans takes priority.

  21. Today I got to launch a React Native app with major help from @zachmiles. It’s amazing that I could do this in under six months despite no React, JavaScript or really any development experience.

    When I tell people that I think LLMs can change the way we think about how technology is built a big part of it is who is now able to build technology.

    Building an iOS app that I dreamed up in my brain has been a bucket list item for many years. Feels amazing to check it off. #Tamagui

    I see a Yawlp! It's a reference to #MeowWolf’s ConvergenceStation in Denver) #YawlpSighting

    Also, the robot looks an awful lot like the Becoming Human sculpture from the House of Eternal Return in Santa Fe. meowwolf.com/blob/we-have-a-gi

  23. Any love for #Tamagui on the Fediverse? I’m new to #ReactNative but have been cutting my teeth on #NextJS for a bit and Tamagui’s Solito-powered monorepo is about the coolest thing I’ve ever seen.

  24. Bluesky users are having a massive #TrustAndSafety conversation in the wake of the #Bluesky team’s decision to platform an individual with a history of violent and hate-driven posts.

    In a thread chastising the Bluesky team, one person mentioned the #SantaClaraPrinciples. I’m pretty new to T&S discussions so I had never heard of these before, but I’m so glad I did and I urge others to read them too. It’s not a silver bullet, but it’s a very interesting starting point.

  25. Netflix picked the wrong time to pull their shenanigans. I’d been a digital subscriber since the launch of digital only subscriptions in 2009.

    Over time my account grew to include profiles for people in 4 houses. Netflix wouldn’t let us pay to keep everyone on one account if we wanted to. So we cancelled.

    We all decided we’re better off without it, especially because their selection isn’t what it used to be. Easy decision honestly.

  26. I really enjoyed @danielpunkass’s perspective on this week’s #TheTalkShow about how AI fears aren’t that different from other technologies that weren’t well understood last century. He said a lot more than that too and didn’t try to downplay the fears either, (e.g. we’re cars a good invention after all?) but it was a sobering analogy that made me think. Worth the listen!

  27. This is exactly why I set up @nwstulsawarn. I wish NWS Tulsa would just set up their own Fediverse account (ideally on an official NWS/NOAA server) but this sucks and people have access to high quality weather news under threat because Elon Musk is a clown.
