    Nothing annoys me more in today apps/web ecosystem than automatic logging out after some period of time 😒 I get why is that a thing... but - it could be done way better I think.

    RE: https://mastodon.social/@krzyzanowskim/116228627148638561 Omg yes! I can&amp;#39;t comprehend why multiple windows somehow seems like something hard to do with Electron, why is that? Is it because websites are inherently &amp;quot;single page&amp;quot; and that limitation extends to web apps on desktop? 🧐

    I can&amp;#39;t believe why perfectly fine, simple Contacts app was massacred 😵‍💫 All those HUGE avatars makes no sense, they slow everything down to a crawl even n fast devices. Also Spotlight showing recent messages &amp;amp; photos first instead of actually useful data like contact informations.

    I finally found a &amp;quot;solution&amp;quot; to my iPad Pro (2018) upgrade conundrum. Current #iPad lineup is confusing to say the least. IMO completely missing the point. Base iPad is too weak, iPad Air have unnecessarily powerful SoC in a shitty hardware (screen mostly) - and iPads Pro are expensive overkills. So I finally found a refurbished M4 iPad Pro for just slightly more than new iPad Air M4

    Why #Xcode is spawning a full simulator in the background (via SimulatorTrampoline) even if you open just ONE .xib file by accident 😭 Does Interface Builder using Simulator in the background now or what? This not only lights up all your CPU cores for a while but also consumes a gigabytes of RAM just for this - in addition to Xcode usual several gigabytes.

    RE: https://mastodon.social/@pixelscience/116400856270074698 I know it&amp;#39;s totally off-topic - but this code snippet shows it clearly - I have NO idea why Swift engineers choose this kind of &amp;quot;switch&amp;quot; &amp;quot;case&amp;quot; alignment by default 🤷‍♂️ Good thing that some people at Apple doesn&amp;#39;t like that too and there&amp;#39;s a formatting option in Xcode specifically for this, ekhm, &amp;quot;case&amp;quot; 😅 (by default it&amp;#39;s &amp;quot;C languages”)

    It&amp;#39;s so annoying opening big projects in #Xcode 😌 Why all those gigabytes of derived data if you need to reindex and reload everything for minutes anyway? Even if I accidentally close the project, ad open it again immediately, it reindex all the stuff which may take minutes on large projects…
