Liquid Glass disillusioned here: Dear Apple, if an app constantly needs to darken or lighten the background or adjust control transparency for the user interface to be barely usable, perhaps this indicates a flawed approach to user interface design? 😵‍💫

Windows PC is a powerful platform for gaming, with high frame rate, gorgeous graphics and animation, and so on and on… so why is a modern pro laptop running the latest OS, Windows 11, still struggles when resizing windows? It’s 2025. But, hey, we have AI everywhere, right? 🤷🏻‍♂️😒

Something I just learned this morning about Micro.blog:

Do cross the streams! Bluesky starter packs now available to follow within Micro.blog. Here’s one in Micro.blog on the web with people who post about books. No batch follow yet, but a fun way to discover new users. An experiment that we’ll refine. You can search for a Bluesky pack URL to open it.

Starter Packs are great to quickly browse and see who might be interesting to follow… but following the whole starter pack is a no-go for me. The way I understand it is that you are following all the pack members in one hop. I prefer to pick and choose.

As reported from MacRumors: A new button for camera-related functionality coming to the iPhone 17 Pro? Will they fix or improve the Camera Control? I hope they work on that, too, just like when the iterated on the haptic engine in the early days of the iPhone.

Two apps. Tapestry on the left, a beta that supports Liquid Glass. Micro.blog on the right, still not supporting Liquid Glass. Look at the elements spacing and content areas. This is the future that awaits us.
