Ran into a bug in Claude Code: suspending a session with ctrl+z and bringing it back to the foreground after a while tends to corrupt the TUI @bcherny

We’re sending out our first batch of fresh pressed juices to mobile app leaders (overnight ofc). QR code goes to calculator that shows how much “juice you can squeeze” by avoiding 30% Apple tax and using @zerosettle for in app purchases instead!

The times are changing for mobile game developers! Currently Apple and Google are at 0% fees for US transactions on competing payment systems, and no onerous restrictions or scare screens for directing customers to those payments. Great details below -

Another Thank you @TimSweeneyEpic moment -TakeTwo mobile game bookings +19%! CEO Strauss Zelnick said, "Our direct to consumer business had its strongest quarter on record," and "benefited from the ability to operate consumer storefronts outside the App Store and Google Play Store" (we wrote a 30pp report on Epic and Notebook LM did phenomenal images for it!)

I used to work in the Services org at Apple. Internally, it was taken for granted that the 30% App Store cut was “close to cost.” Did some digging into it and this was the actual math: Visa/Mastercard processing ~3% Chargeback Fraud ~0.5% Support/refunds labor cost ~1–2% Billing/tax/compliance ~1% Hosting/CDNs -2% Call it ~8%. Apple charges 30%. I'm no economist, but a > 70% operating margin feels more like rent than than the free market. That's almost ~20B profit, more than 5x what Starbucks does (and no coffee 😞)

you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a pm

If I hit this dictation button after sending a text and it beeps and stops my music one more time, I’m gonna find everyone at apple and put them in a rear naked choke hold Even if I turn off dictation I somehow hit the voice note thing The send button should not have multiple functions in the same spot

Network fees are necessary, but exposing them isn’t. Requiring SOL to send USDC is like Venmo requiring a small euro balance to send dollars. Needs to be abstracted away or consumer crypto won’t scale.

@NepetaDev Hey, I’m developing a Spotify tweak right now and am wondering if you have any insight regarding a song’s metadata or how Spotify parses and interprets a song’s duration? I’m afraid I’m totally lost and am not familiar enough with Spotify’s headers
