TIL: you can avoid Apple Music from launching when you press the play / pause key
TIL: you can avoid Apple Music from launching when you press the play / pause key by unloading a launch agent:
launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.rcd.plistUpdate: sadly this also means you can't use the play / pause button for Spotify.

Delivering and receiving Emails in the modern internet is such a shit show. The big providers (looking at you, Google and Microsoft!) do their own shit, and the old protocols are at least inofficially deprecated. Just try to send a mail via SMTP using an Office365 account (e.g. because the customer uses Office365 for their mail). The admin has to manually enable SMTP for users, and then you have to implement shit like XOAUTH2. Sigh.

In case you are an Emacs user doing frontend development with TypeScript and React, there is tsx-mode https://github.com/orzechowskid/tsx-mode.el
In case you are an Emacs user doing frontend development with TypeScript and React, there is a new major mode for TSX development: tsx-mode. It is a promising project. It uses tree-sitter for font-lock (syntax highlighting). My setup using
use-packagecan be found here and here. I also added it to my Doom Emacs config: see this and this.
