What's the most innovative and useful app memory usage visualisation you've seen?
Looking for something that really captures the categories and areas of an apps memory use. Maybe a treemap, maybe something else.

Authentication is an interesting double-edged sword. I'd love to use BlueSky more often on mobile but it keeps signing me out and I can never summon the energy to sign in again.

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

Our house had zero insulation. Shouldn't be allowed especially if you have extremes of temperature.
The guys installing insulation also found an aircon duct main feed split open and pumping nice cold air into the 60degC roof space.
