Inter Dynamic Metrics is interesting: more spacing for small text, tighter tracking for larger text

Similar to how macOS/iOS does dynamic optical sizes for San Francisco fonts, but continuous

Any variable fonts that do this?

Why can't macOS record system audio out of the box in 2023? I'm using a custom Git build of the BlackHole driver from over a year ago, plus a multi-output device

(still works, too scared to touch it again)

Seems like ChatGPT* has earned a place in my workflow. Used it almost every day last month

Copilot is the only other AI tool I use regularly

@lucia.bsky.social this is so true for bsky though

"Not a typewriter"

Most modern libraries have changed ENOTTY to "Inappropriate ioctl for device", but some relics still remain :)

This one is from the "nix" Rust crate

Google's search AI (SGE) is pretty nice, and you get a new design too

AppCode crashes every 5 minutes, why do I still use this...

(usable Copilot for Xcode when?)

Thinking of making an OrbStack community, but hard to choose between Discord or Slack

Discord is nicer and more popular for new dev tools

But if I'm mainly selling to companies, Slack is probably a better fit. Don't want to pay $8/user/mo for it though

Coming from Linux, one nice thing about macOS is the system-wide dark mode setting

All my apps support it (browser, editors, terminal) so my entire system switches from light to dark throughout the day

Light can be nice for readability. Fight me :)

I thought the macOS setting for HTTPS proxy meant to both use it for HTTPS connections *and* connect to the proxy server via TLS (like an https:// proxy URL).

Turns out it's only the former, and the protocol is still supposed to be HTTP 🤦‍♂️

Fix incoming.

I guess Bluesky is decent for a React Native app, but it definitely shows
