installing betas on test machines is a bad idea because it doesn't accurately reflect daily usage. both of my laptops and my iPad are on the dev betas.

we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.
nothing i do has any value, so it's fine if my phone and computer don't work reliably due to beta software

it will legit help storage efficiency. that duplicate detecting behavior makes for some clever consolidation without explicit shared libraries being required for boilerplate frameworks as well as things like copies of folders

im from the bad post police, and i'm afraid i have bad news
been using ios11 on my iphone since they announced it, its an ok beta; maybe a bit buggier than ios10 (which was very unbuggy for me)

tempted to install high sierra on my work machine so i can get even less done

I'm really enjoying running production software that isn't buggy and has good battery life for the first time ever. gently caress going back to buggy betas.

um, most of my good stories need some time before coming out. but one late evening I was walking in the hall of IL1. as I went around a corner I saw someone else there so I gave him the old "sup?" head nod. it was Tim Cook. he replied "hi, how are you?" as I passed him and I was too dumbfounded to answer.

it's easy to understand: any version of ios after 5 is inferior in both functionality and performance

it's unfortunate that some were coerced into upgrading past ios 5, but at least they didn't continue to the hilarious debacle that is ios 10
