Hulu Live’s DVR marks advertisements as un-skippable. I never thought a DVR would actively fight against me like this. It’s so aggravating and I think I’m gonna cancel.
With Vue going away what’s the best TV service with DVR?
I’m taking today off and have the rest of the week off. So yesterday felt like Friday, and I’m very confused why today isn’t Saturday.
Calendars and body clocks are weird things.
The Migration Assistant seems to have gone really smoothly over Thunderbolt 3. Aside from a bunch of annoying permissions popups again I’m happy with how quickly I’ve been able to get MacBook Scissorhands up and running (it’s a working name).
It’s here!
MacBook Pro is on the truck for delivery! Come on DHL, come on! 😆
Helpful friends are the best.
Is the only way to customize a menu bar in a Mac Catalyst app via storyboard? I’m not using storyboards in my iOS app. Hoping there’s another way (or that I can appoint a bespoke storyboard to only provide the menu bar).
Got the tracking number for my laptop today! If only the page would update with an estimated delivery date. I really hope it can travel from LA to my house in 2 days so I get it by Thanksgiving 😅
I love adding new simple automations. Just added a small script to renew SSL on my site using letsencrypt. I also cleaned up the versioning of my blog engine while I was at it.
A much refreshed MacBook Pro order page will not change to shipped.
Related: I’m super impatient.
I’m always excited when it’s Xcoders day, and today is no exception.
Introducing my boys to Darkwing Duck!
16" MacBook Pro ordered. I’m stoked to get this new machine!
I sent this message to a buddy on Slack yesterday and this morning am feeling incredibly vindicated (talking abut the release of the 16" MacBook Pro delaying the new episode of the Upgrade podcast)
The Mandalorian episode 1 did not disappoint. No spoilers here but you should definitely check it out.
Got Disney+ set up on the Apple TV and our maiden voyage as picked by Atticus is Super Buddies. I’m really excited for the kids to go to bed so Emily and I can get in to The Mandalorian.
One delightful thing about my AirPods Pro (or gen 2 with Siri) is that I can start a workout using Siri on the AirPods. I wasn’t expecting that level of integration, but it’s great feeling like Siri is one thing everywhere rather than distinct instances on different devices.
Sitting down with my ballot to vote. I always have a difficult time figuring out who & what to vote for because 1) it takes a lot of time to feel like I’m informed enough to make a decision and 2) I don’t know where to find trustworthy information. Am I overthinking this?
I really like using Swift to write scripts. Using a language I already know (while I realize it’s not as efficient as shell or Ruby or Python would be) is a huge time-saver. Looking forward to playing around with more Swift scripting.
I wrote a new blog post, now I’m attempting to write a script to automate the process of publishing said post. So I need to learn how to ssh in to my server, get to the proper directory, and run a git fetch && git pull. Any tips appreciated 🙂
