AI for software engineering is a gimmick.
Sorry for those thinking otherwise — you are living in a collective delusion,
and too bad for the rest of us, having to face consequences because of those people.
But that is simply what it is. A gimmick.

Wanna know another reason why web-apps are shit?
Discord updating itself every launch is already a pain,
but doing so on a limited connection makes things even worse.
Sure,
making an update which blocks app from usage
via a barely working connection totally makes sense.
Right?

Automatic logout / session expiration
should not be a thing.
If user constantly bumps into it,
it is not a security feature but an annoyance.
The proper implementation must be transparent to user. Meaning it should rarely be observed.
It makes no sense to require login every week.

Native ChatGPT app not still having multi-window support is wild.
Why?
Clearly, someone had put a though behind its look and feel,
for it has a modern interface with Liquid Glass.
But why there is no option to open some discussion in a separate window?
This would have improved usability so much.

There are few options to ensure you software works as expected,
but AI is not one of them.
To be fair,
writing Unit Tests, having enough Development time,
and committing to intentional engineering with edge cases covered aren't either.

The modern state of western politics is unsustainable.
Instead of doing what has to be done when it has to be done,
decisions are constantly delayed,
being made in a reduced state too tale, or not made at all.

So, all of you know what GPS is, right?
And for sure you are aware it is not a reliable source of truth,
cause spoofing exists, in addition to interference and the initial imperfections of this system.
Thats why other means for local geolocation exist.

Migrate to SPM.
Drop those dependencies which do not support

This is an app issue.
Not macOS issue.
macOS reports sizing change back to app.
The app reacts to it.
Do other apps have this problem?
No. Hence macOS reports size change correctly.
They probably didn't change this code for decades.
They didn't change it to fix rounded corners interactions, sure.

The best code is code you didn't have to write.
(and I do not mean generating AI slop instead).
Design your code base in a responsible way,
to avoid unnecessary complexity both now and in future,
when making changes to it becomes necessary.

Anything problematic around us is that way cause it has been designed to fail under constrained conditions.
It hasn't been designed to endure,
but instead made as a fast-as-possible,
a sloppy solution to some very real problem.

There is no better time to do what you want to do than NOW
There ain't gonna be "later", ever.
You won't get more time later.
You won't get more strength later.
You won't get more opportunity later.
You will only loose all of these by delaying..

Or don't at all.
