been feeling like it was time for an avatar change. something that feels more like me. if you're thinking 'who is this?' here’s a before and after

After a month of using the macOS Tahoe beta, the corner radius on windows in Sequoia feels so sterile and computer-y. Catalina window corners look like they might cut you.
So close to uninstalling ChatGPT Mac app so I never have to see this again. Is there a way to disable this in Safari?

So excited to share one of my white-whale projects: a fully physics-based, holographic foil shader. Each pixel simulates a ray of light diffracting into a rainbow of waves, which add and subtract to create these incredible patterns. Not a single gradient was used here!
the vertical pointer cursor has been the toughest change to adjust to on macOS Tahoe so far
New macOS Pointers
the spatial perspective warp effect on the iPadOS app launch transition is so cool
beta bugs aside, Liquid Glass in Apple Maps and Messages is really well done. the elevation it creates feels really natural in practice here
