Enjoyed โ€œSupermanโ€. Felt fresh and different from lots of superhero stuff. But I definitely enjoyed F1 way more.

F1 in IMAX was pretty incredible.

The MacBook Air charging ports being on the left and the iPad Air charging points being on the right when in landscape is a damn shame.

Blows my mind how much of the web is simply broken on Mobile Safari, which has to be one of the most popular browsers in the world.

Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten unless you need to go to college then you should leave family to the state.

I guess I donโ€™t mind Bitcoin but generally get turned off by crypto, as the entire culture feels filled with scams.

I also think the transactional costs of Bitcoin make it seem more like an investment vehicle than a currency.

I think the โ€œWhyโ€ should be higher and emphasize what benefits one might have in using this. Even if not a direct comparison with things you arenโ€™t familiar with, there has to be benefits to structuring your persistence data in this way.

Other than that, great work! I was able to follow along

One of my favorite uses of GenAI and development isnโ€™t it writing me code but being able to ask for ideas as to why something may not be working. Way more effective than Googling these days.
