I prefer a consistent design system because it makes continued development much easier.

They already have magsafe chargers. TBH that would be the best move for Apple. The downside would be no more direct cable data backups. That makes me think no choice but USBC for this next phone.

Honestly I’d check out the latest react dev docs and follow some of beginner friendly blogs online. RSC is going to get closer to complete by end of year and these books will be out o date for the larger paradigm shift coming.

I’ve almost finished transition to iCloud. No issues at all. I value my privacy more and more and with news google is going to train their LLMs on your content it was a no brainer for me.

Nike shorts have consistently felt best so I’ve used them over the years. In terms of fit they need to be fitting (tights part) but not super tight. Like you should feel they are there is they fit right. Try not to the the “entry” level ones though. wait for a sale and get the next level up. The quality is generally much better and they will last longer.

But yeah you shouldn’t notice them when they are on and make sure you can “squat” down comfortably wearing them.

Yes I believe it’s hardware. You wouldn’t see consistent issues like this ubiquitously. I could honestly be the RAM/memory as well because on my old Mac I use to get constant beach balls and it turned out HDD and 1 ram stick had issues.

I feel the most likely thing would be a bad battery. But if it’s not the battery then it gets expensive because intermittent issues are always the hardest to debug in hardware.

I prefer using the default mail app.

Had ACL surgery 10 years ago. Running has reduced the load on my knee so much that I can’t even tell I had surgery on it.

Imho Goodr sunglasses (25 USD) work very well. A solid cap under 20 should be good. Your watch can last 4-5 years and I don’t expect you to need new socks for years. I’d advocate you get a few new pairs of shorts. I like Nike 2-in-1 as I have bigger thighs. For training consider looking into trainingpeaks.com
