the dune movies were doomed from the start to be good and not great due to the casting of chalamet as paul. he does not have the gravitas for a child-god and is much better suited for kind of silly coming of age movies

who the hell is showing up to the airport 2 hours early in big 2026 the ideal plan is: - 30 mins before takeoff - TSA PreCheck - No checked bags

@rileybrown lmao

I spoke to Anthropic’s AI agent Claude about AI collecting massive amounts of personal data and how that information is being used to violate our privacy rights. What an AI agent says about the dangers of AI is shocking and should wake us up.

browsing history, purchases, search -> used to sell personalize ads we already know this, it is regulated, you’ve had a million hearings on it. this is done by Google Ads, Google Tag, Meta Pixel, Instagram, TikTok, etc… but somehow Claude and ChatGPT will be blamed 😭

@eunifiedworld oh hell yeah. Im def gonna see it there

@sethsetse im going for project hail mary im so excited

one of the perks of living in SF is AMC Metreon 16, literally one of the largest IMAX screens in the world i saw Dune Part 2 there, it was the most amazing movie experience I’ve ever had if you’re watching a true 70mm 1.43:1 IMAX film you need to go there, nothing else compares

Personal software—the most innovative movement in years—is being quietly killed across millions of devices.

@tokifyi @a0_dev not everyone got taken down but most people will have trouble updating their apps

@sethsetse @a0_dev wait how’s wabi still on the app store

The @a0_dev app got taken off the store 3 months ago and we made SEVERAL appeals with Apple to get it back to no avail. We've since gone with a different solution. A lot of people seem to have no idea what's really happening here so I want to share my thoughts. Apple removed our app and is blocking updates / releases to many other apps for Guideline 2.5.2, this guideline prohibits downloading and executing code inside of an app that changes features of functionality of the app. Our app and many other apps download the code for a users app so that it can be previewed on a users device with native capabilities. It's a matter of convenience, we want users to be able to download one app so that they can quickly test the many apps that they are building. There are many other ways for users to preview their mobile apps that are a much worse experience. The other options include TestFlight, previewing on the browser, using the Simulator on Mac, and downloading an ad-hoc build to a users device. Using TestFlight means users have to sign up for a $99 developer account and create a store listing just to upload their build just to test the app they're trying to build. It requires too much effort and money for new users who just want to try the app they've built and there's no way to let other people test the apps without adding them to your developer account or submitting your app for external TestFlight review which can add a multi day delay. Previewing the app on the browser is another popular solution with many problems. The browser preview is ugly and can't access native functionality. There are MANY features that don't work on the browser and the app doesn't look or behave the same as it does on an actual device. It's helpful for our users building apps on our website but doesn't test the real app. Ad-hoc builds needs to be signed for a user's device and require a very convoluted process to get the user's Device ID which include entering developer mode on your phone, a security delay from apple, and can also require a paid developer account if you want the builds to last longer than a few days. It's easy to see why we and many other vibe coding apps have chosen to allow users to instead download a single app and execute the code for their app inside of it. It reduces friction, saves money, and time. The 2.5.2 Guideline already has an exception for Educational apps and I think it should be extended to support Developer Tools. For Apple this is simply a matter of control, they want app developers to buy a Mac, download Xcode, and use the Simulator or TestFlight just to preview an app they're trying to build. There are many people who are seemingly happy about this and think that this will help improve their app review times or stop 'vibe-coded' apps from entering the app store. Those people are fools. The decision has nothing to do with the quality or volume of apps or how they are made. It's about how hard it is to test them. The only thing that will improve your app review times is Apple hiring more reviewers or relaxing the rules. Apple is a nearly $4 trillion company. Trust me, they can afford to hire more reviewers. Instead they've chosen to make the app testing process harder in an attempt to keep more control. We will continue making apps anyway.

@59thProfile @a0_dev i adressed the browser preview in my post. We do this on web, it works but it’s really not the same

@sethsetse @a0_dev replit solved it by just opening the preview to browser now why dont you just do the same thing?

@Ncky_Mrtnez @a0_dev our apps can be installed as PWA’s. PWA’s have the same problems as the browser preview. Our users want their apps on the App Store

@sethsetse @a0_dev Or just make it a web app that installs to the home screen. No store, no review, no guidelines. PWAs exist for exactly this reason
