      Thoroughly impressed by the release speed for books about iOS 26!

      It makes me wonder: for fellow self-taught devs, did you use a book when you were starting out? Were they helpful, or did you prefer video courses/tutorials?

          Third HomePod mini went on the fritz last night. Woke me up after 10pm with some random soulless music. The top touch panel has a failure mode where eventually it reacts to phantom touches thus randomly playing music or initiating Siri. I looked into it, and partially disassembling it to unplug the touch component would solve the problem. But meh. Half the time my phone tries to answer HomeKit Siri requests anyway. I use Sonos for music. I’ve an AppleTV for HomeKit.
