Weve already devotedtoomanywordsto the new 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pros notch, yet it continues to haunt us.
This is Apple were talking about, and Apple doesnt make design mistakes like that, after all.
Would long lists of menu items jump over the notch, or would they be obscured by it?
As it turns out, the answer is all of the above.

Yikes.
On the desktop, your mouse simply slides behind the Notch.
In DaVinci Resolve, the mouse sometimes instantly jumps across the notch.
Other times, youre forced to maneuveraroundit.

WHO DESIGNED THIS?!

But wait, theres more!
Start iterm it goes away.
Im not gonna lie, as a Windows guy, Im experiencing a little schadenfreude.
Why not make every app simply wrap its items around the notch?
Why doesnt macOS have a way of highlighting when your cursor is behind the cutout?
Why not make extra menu items scrollable or shrink the text?
