Been bored on a few flights over the last few months that had spotty Wi-Fi, so I built a @raycastapp extension that hits the plane's onboard flight stats API and renders is as a dashboard.

Any Raycast users out there? Should I publish this extension to the store?

Never heard of it before but now I am interested!

A while back I wrote a script that downloads this in-flight data and logs it, but now I just pull the data from flightaware for my logs :-)

not sure, I only fly Delta :)

in my experience it's specific to the wifi provider of the flight, for example gogo provides wifi on a bunch of different airlines and it worked the same for all of those

Tiny design detail: nested border radii look really funky if they're the same. To maintain the same curvature, the outer radius = inner radius + padding.

I can't believe most major apps in which we buy digital goods have broken their purchasing process to force you out of the app & onto the web to avoid the platform tax & we've just sorta accepted this huge hit to ease-of-use and no one seems to be complaining or talking about it

Keynote predictions.

Apple: We gave a professional cinematographer this new iPhone and they made a whole movie with it which won an Oscar.

Me: Takes slightly better pictures of squirrels.

I love expanded health features, but I still don't understand sleeping with a smart watch.

That's literally the only reason I want a smart watch, to track my sleep! Coincidentally that's the reason I can't get an Apple Watch, battery life is just crap.

In the age of cell phones, the area code has become the ancestral clan name or heraldry. It is a marker of old stories, loyalties, a statement that says "there was a land I came from but am there no longer"

Apple Watch Ultra is perfect for those aspirational folks who buy a giant truck then use it exclusively to drop their kids off at school.

you can charge them for 15-30 minutes when you do anything in the evening (shower, movie, reading, etc.). They charge in just a moment. I don't know why you all make such a science about it.🤷‍♂️

I've been wearing smart watches of various sorts for 11 years, and my experience has shown me that a device doesn't work for me unless the battery lasts for at least 4 days, preferably closer to 10.

Could I train myself to be more proactive at charging? Yes. Do I want to? no.

A man in McDonald’s just ordered an apple pie and the cashier said “would you like to do two apple pies instead” while giving no reasoning or context and the man said “yes.” I demand all conversations moving forward to be this way. Efficient, goal-oriented, apple pie adjacent.
