    I sort of think Netflix wins here. They still will get F1 fans who watch drive to survive. How many additional users does adding the races bring in? And at that cost.

    And if F1 proves to be a fad and the popularity doesn’t last. They can scale back easily

    Tried out Pepsi nitro. Am I crazy or are they just selling flat Pepsi?

    Meg Ryan is a real OG here with “shopgirl” as a screen name. No numbers

    This makes going to Disney parks sound awful

    This is Apple protecting consumers. This is a bad experience. And it exists because Apple’s subscription experience is inadequate developer needs. And that problem exists because Apple doesn’t have to compete with other payment processors.

    I didn’t love a lot of Obi-Wan Kenobi

    But I have to say they stuck that ending pretty well. Definitely my favorite episode

    The difference between Doctor Strange and Wanda is he made a terrible decision to save the multiverse. She made one to make herself feel better. Her grief is understandable. But it doesn’t remotely validate her actions

    If you’re spending a bunch of time thinking about the logistics of who Buzz Lightyear is in Lightyear. You might be trying too hard

    Hacks season 2. Just as good as the first 👌

    This is my least favorite thing Marvel did to movies. It’s a kids movie. It’s hard to get kids to sit and watch a movie. Then to get them to stay for credits? Just put them before the credits. Or during.

    Frankly I think less time should be devoted to the Trump aspect of Jan 6 and more to the rest of the GOP enabling and supporting the big lie

    Lightyear was great 👍

    Yes I did rig up a piece of foam insulation with some magnets. So when it’s stupid hot and the attic is 125 degrees I can reduce the amount of heat seeping down into our house…

    A lot of things I love about working at Dwell. But summer fridays off are one of my favorites

    Can you imagine having walked on the moon?

    I’m afraid today might be the day our old HVAC unit gives up…

    Always fun to keep an eye on the attic temperature….

    This heat is really showing me how much heat is leaking into the house from the attic and crawl space 😅

    Oof that one hurts. Great season for the Vols. ⚾️ 🍊

    Diffable data sources seem a little crashy as an API. Crashing when you have repeat identifiers. Crashing when you have empty sections. These don’t seem like crash scenarios.

    Maybe applying a snapshot should be able to throw an error? Possibly as an async call

    It’s pretty obvious to the rest of us. The internet changed software distribution far more than the App Store did.

    I find it hard to believe they don’t realize that. If they don’t then that’s some incredible hubris. And if they do… that’s some incredible arrogance.
