Apple Ram Upgrades Are Starting To Look Cheap

Apple Ram Upgrades Are Starting To Look Cheap
Remember when we thought Apple's RAM upgrade pricing was highway robbery? Fast forward to 2024, and RAM prices are skyrocketing while GPU prices keep promising to "fall any day now" like that friend who says they'll pay you back "next week." The crypto miners, AI boom, and supply chain chaos have turned hardware pricing into a twisted joke. Your $3000 gaming rig from last year? Practically vintage at this point. At least Apple's consistent with their extortion—everyone else is just getting creative with theirs.

Apple Forgot To Disable Production Source Maps On The App Store Web App

Apple Forgot To Disable Production Source Maps On The App Store Web App
The trillion-dollar company that makes privacy its selling point just handed out their source code like it's free candy at a tech conference. Source maps in production is the digital equivalent of leaving your house keys under the doormat with a neon sign pointing to them. Some developer is getting a strongly worded Slack message right about now. For the uninitiated: source maps are files that link minified/compiled code back to the original source, meant for debugging but absolutely not for showing your competitors how your app works. It's like publishing your diary but forgetting to tear out the pages where you wrote down all your secrets.

Dealing With Safari As A Webdev

Dealing With Safari As A Webdev
Nothing says "I've made poor career choices" quite like spending 14 hours debugging a feature that works perfectly in Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, only to have Safari render it like it's 2007. You build something beautiful, test it everywhere, then Safari comes along like that one relative who still uses Internet Explorer and asks "what's the cloud?" The worst part? Apple's response is basically "sounds like a you problem." Meanwhile, you're questioning every CSS flex property you've ever written and contemplating a peaceful life as a goat farmer instead.

Those Were The Good Old Days

Those Were The Good Old Days
Remember when you didn't need a PhD in dongle management to listen to music on your phone? Wolverine's gazing longingly at a photo of the now-endangered 3.5mm headphone jack like it's a long-lost love. Today's tech companies: "We removed this ancient technology to make room for... courage. And $29.99 adapters." The real superpower isn't adamantium claws—it's being able to charge your phone and listen to music simultaneously without carrying three different cables and a portable USB hub.

Malware Blocked: When Your Mac Thinks Docker Is The Enemy

Malware Blocked: When Your Mac Thinks Docker Is The Enemy
When macOS thinks Docker is malware, it's like your paranoid grandma refusing to let your friend in because they're "dressed suspiciously." The irony of a containerization tool—literally designed to safely isolate applications—being flagged as malicious is peak Silicon Valley drama. Meanwhile, developers everywhere frantically Google "how to convince my Mac that Docker isn't trying to steal its identity" while questioning their career choices.

When The Senior Dev Says You Need A Mac To Code, So You Take It Literally

When The Senior Dev Says You Need A Mac To Code, So You Take It Literally
The eternal Mac vs PC debate has claimed another victim. When told he "needs a Mac to code properly," this absolute legend took the most malicious compliance approach possible - using an actual MacBook as a mousepad while gaming on his Windows laptop. The irony is just *chef's kiss*. Ten bucks says he's writing some killer code in Visual Studio while his senior dev is still trying to figure out why Homebrew is broken again after the latest OS update.

The Time-Checking Hierarchy

The Time-Checking Hierarchy
The duality of developers in their natural habitat. She's flaunting her $10,000 Apple Watch or Rolex to check the time like some kind of productivity royalty, while he's secretly a 90s kid who learned to code on that blue plastic children's computer that could barely run "Math Blaster." The irony? Both devices tell time with roughly the same accuracy, but one of them came with a steering wheel and taught an entire generation that computers are supposed to be bright blue with yellow flames on the side. No wonder our CSS looks like this.

The Three Horsemen Of Tech Success

The Three Horsemen Of Tech Success
The tech industry's holy trinity formula has been cracked. Apple and Tesla follow the standard playbook: one visionary jerk who takes all the credit, one European designer with impeccable taste, and one quiet engineer who actually makes things work. Then there's Linux. Linus Torvalds somehow managed to fill all three roles simultaneously, creating an operating system while telling everyone to go fork themselves. The man literally wrote Git because other version control systems weren't worthy of his code. And that, friends, is why Linux runs the internet while you're still rebooting Windows.

Sacrifices On The Altar Of Sleek

Sacrifices On The Altar Of Sleek
The AUDACITY of laptop manufacturers! First they MURDERED our precious PS/2 ports, then VGA got BRUTALLY slaughtered, HDMI is bleeding out, and USB-A is literally being STABBED TO DEATH as we speak! And for what?! So the Grim Reaper of connectivity can knock on the 3.5mm jack's door next?! THE HORROR! 💀 Meanwhile, we're all frantically buying dongles like apocalypse survivors hoarding canned beans. "But it's 0.02mm thinner!" they say, as if that justifies this PORT GENOCIDE. I'm typing this from a laptop that's basically just a screen with attitude and NOTHING ELSE!

Twenty Years Of Fire Wire

Twenty Years Of Fire Wire
The irony of technology evolution in one image. In 2005, FireWire was this sleek, compact connector that made USB look like a clumsy dinosaur. Fast forward to 2025 (in this alternate timeline), and apparently FireWire decided to transform into what looks like the power supply for a small nuclear reactor. It's giving strong "I need to connect my computer to the space station" vibes. Somewhere, a hardware engineer is looking at this and thinking, "Yes, but can we add MORE pins?" Because clearly, what we all want is a connector that requires a building permit to install.

Subtle Differences

Subtle Differences
The eternal tech caste system in one image. On the left, your product manager flexing with a $4000 MacBook Pro they use exclusively for Outlook and Slack. On the right, the developer who actually builds your entire product, running a battle-scarred ThinkPad they rescued from an e-waste bin and upgraded with Linux. The ThinkPad is held together with electrical tape and spite, but somehow compiles code faster than the PM's machine. The real irony? The developer could afford the MacBook but actively chose not to buy it.

Privacy Theater At Its Finest

Privacy Theater At Its Finest
Privacy in tech is like that friend who says they'll keep your secret but immediately posts it on Facebook. Safari claims to be the privacy champion, then casually sets Google—the data vacuum of the internet—as the default search engine. It's like installing a security door with a neon sign pointing to the spare key under the mat. The shocked cat perfectly captures that moment when you realize your "private" browsing history is being monetized faster than you can say "targeted advertising."
