I had a pixel 6 pro and was going to upgrade to the 8 pro when it came out, but the leaks seemed to indicate that they were gonna have the same modem/connectivity issues which was my biggest complaint about the 6 pro. My carrier (Google Fi) was running a crazy deal on Galaxy phones so I decided fuck it and got the 23 plus (I don’t care for a stylus). Holy shit it’s night and day, the amount of stuff that just genuinely works is such a breath of fresh air. My wireless android auto “just works” my galaxy watch “just works”, setting everything up worked the first try. My fingerprint reader is way better. Apps crash less, samsung health is pretty cool (no extra subscription). I was a little leery of all the Samsung “bloatware” (I’ve been hearing all bad stuff since the TouchWiz days), but honestly almost everything is better than the Google version. The noteable exception is the keyboard, for whatever reason my autocorrect on Gboard seems to be way better. I was nervous I’d miss the pixel call blocking stuff, but apparently Bixby also does it so I haven’t noticed any spam calls since switching.

TL;DR: galaxy S23 is super dope, if you can get it on a deal I’d highly recommend it.

At least from everything I’ve read they’ve thought about migration and will actually let you use RSS, I was worried they weren’t going to add that functionality to youtube music

ISO dates are the goat because they string compare correctly. Just yesterday I shaved 2 full seconds off a page transition by removing a date parse in the middle of a hot sorting loop. Everything should use ISO in my opinion.

The thank you for your patience one has always rubbed me wrong. There’s honor in apologizing in my opinion. I do like the making a mistake one though and I’ve tried to adopt that mentality when I’m working with QA on something I’ve merged. I want them to feel good about finding the mistakes and I want to avoid an adversarial relationship. I’ve learned that I get way better tickets from QA if they like how I treat them. Treat them like valuable experts and they’ll act like valuable experts.
