Fabulous post from @math-rachel.bsky.social on dark flow and vibe coding:

Code for Cats – or how your LLM is a cosplayer The other day I read a post entitled "Opus 4.5 is going to change everything". The gist was with Claude Opus 4.5 it's no longer necessary to review code. I have a vague idea, but you are right - I do not know how the applications are actually assembled. Especially since I don’t know Swift at all. This used to be a major hangup for me.

Inspired by a blog post on how we don't need to check LLM outputs anymore - I wrote a bit on how I worked with Claude to successfully produce code that can be maintained by cats.

Issue 23: diff visionOS - Musing Around

Issue 23: diff #visionOS - Musing Around

Logitech Muse + Vision Pro is finally the combo we hoped for with visionOS 26.2 β Great app support, strong dev tools, and inspiring accessibility stories. Also: selling a used Vision Pro in 2025… quite the ride.

Nvidia CEO says China on track "to win the AI race" Jensen Huang tells the FT that he is concerned about a potential regulatory burden on AI.

It likely has to do with this: www.axios.com/2025/11/05/a...

Nova is my second most used app—always open, always close in the cmd-tab switcher. In a sea of clunky Electron software, ugly UIs, and constant nags, it feels like a refuge.

If you're building or playing games on the Mac - your game probably isn't working right out of the box on a notched display. I've written about the issue in AppKit and some options for fixing your game.

I wrote a follow up to my "Microwaves" LLM post expanding on a few points. Expecting this to be my only follow up - I'm planning on taking a break on LLMs (and microwaves) for a bit.

Oh I'm not reading the reply guys. I didn't think it would go this wide - but I also knew going in a certain number of people wouldn't get it.

Oooo fun

In the Future All Food Will Be Cooked in a Microwave, and if You Can’t Deal With That Then You Need to Get Out of the Kitchen

July update: I added visionOS support to Microsoft's vcpkg C++ dependency manager and completed major feature work on the Mac version of the Cyan's open source game engine. #visionosdev #macdev

Is Microsoft even an AI company? They're contractually not allowed to create their own model IIRC with the OpenAI agreement. It seems like a situation where OpenAI is basically the proxy they can use to hide the losses. But they themselves just do hosting.

Here's my last blog post (for now) on Claude Code and AI coding. Because it's timely - I also wrote about the METR study that found developers were slowed by AI tools.

It's not just Swift - I'm not having a lot of success in C++ either. There are wins but a lot of time wasted too. C++ is probably more complicated than Swift though.

Just saw this today and it really bums me out. :( I have your Mysterium 2023 print hanging next to my desk - signed by Rand. It always brightens my day by making me think all the time I spent in HyperCard and Myst. Wanted to have you sign too but missed you at the con.

Hope Cyan can bring you back.

I wrote about my experiences using LLMs + Claude Code. Both the good and bad. These tools can cut both ways on efficiency. But my biggest concern is I'm worried developers won't know when to put them down. One takeaway I have: devs who use LLMs should have a surface understanding of how they work.

Get URL from Open dialog of standard Swift document-based application I am trying to extract the URL of the document a user has selected in the default "Open" dialogue of my document based macOS application. I understand, a fileWrapper is passed to the init

Actually - I'm remembering there is one way around, but it's ugly and didn't work for my use case. But maybe it would work for yours. stackoverflow.com/questions/71...

No. I have feedback open about this (and would suggest you do the same.)

A 2x3 grid of stylized, illustrated thumbnails representing trophy icons for the PS1 version of Myst, as seen on PS4 and PS5. Top row: A glowing blue face projected above a spiked platform in a wooden room. A large gear-shaped structure atop a rocky island plateau under clear skies. Middle row: A docked airship beside a tall, narrow brick platform. A top-down view of an island map dotted with various architectural symbols. Bottom row: A reclining mechanical chair with armrests and lights in a dark environment. A close-up of a person’s face seen through a red-tinted frame.

A 2x3 grid of stylized, illustrated thumbnails representing trophy icons for the PS1 version of Riven, as seen on PS4 and PS5. Top row: A golden, metal dome-like structure near water with jagged rocks and mechanical elements in view. Unusual red rock formations rising from a calm sea under a dramatic sunset sky. Middle row: A circular platform with hanging levers and cables inside a dimly lit room. A tall, industrial tower perched on a rocky island under bright blue skies. Bottom row: A view through a tunnel toward an underwater chamber filled with blue light and marine life. An open book with a panel laying on the ground. Just a little further away is a pair of brown-booted feet.

🏆 Friends on @playstation.com: YES! The recent release of classic PS1 Myst and Riven have trophies!

Take a peek at a few of our trophy icons—we had fun designing them. 📖

I've published an experimental version of Nvidia PhysX for visionOS to my GitHub. This fork includes several other patches for building the Gameworks version of PhysX on modern Apple platforms.

After I saw Steve Buscemi I checked on Twitter and saw people were taking photographs of him at the Starbucks down the street. He had just been sitting and trying to enjoy his coffee. So I'm guessing it might have been a post why-can't-I-just-drink-coffee-in-peace elevator ride.

Our old apartment building had a few units they rented to movie stars when they were in town filming.

I once shared an elevator with Steve Buscemi. Another time it was John Larroquette.

I didn't say anything to either. They looked happy to have some quiet time. Especially Steve Buscemi.

How Steve Jobs Wrote the Greatest Commencement Speech Ever Back in 2005, Jobs spent months trying to figure out what to say to Stanford’s graduates. Newly released materials show how he went from hopelessly flailing to delivering a talk for the ages.

20 years today, Steve Jobs gave Stanford grads the speech of all time. He struggled mightily to write it. Here's the inside story about how he did it. www.wired.com/story/how-st...

Hey @bsky.app your iOS tab bar is fake. We knew it already, but now it’s a sore thumb. Can you consider going native, pls?

We'll see how it translates everywhere - but I've really enjoyed using the glass like UI on Vision Pro. It's just really slick and way more polished than the iPad OS theme when running on device.

I'm happy Apple is moving back to more complex materials and animations in UI. For a long time they've been giving ground to cross platform frameworks with less opinionated UI. People used to pursue native frameworks for the richer experience.

Nomad Pak MKII Now offering a USB-C only version, same great pak, with one less input port.  Nomad Pak MKII Is the replacement for the original Nomad 18650 Lithium Battery Pack.  This battery pack uses a custom char...

Fun fact: Because the battery pack was external that makes it really easy to build third party battery packs. There are some really good aftermarket Lithium Ion packs. I got this one that even adds a USB-C charge port to my Nomad. www.laserbear.net/products/nom...

I think the Game Gear is wider (mine is in the closet somewhere, otherwise I'd take a comparison pic.) Buuuuut the Nomad is thicker. The Nomad also doesn't have built in batteries so you have to snap a battery pack onto the back.

I was a Game Gear kid and I really wanted a Nomad. Finally found one at an antique store a few years ago!
