If node-based compositing is your cup of tea, whether for VFX or Mac development: meet FxCore. It’s free, and a great way to play with Core Image Metal shaders, CoreML, Vision, FoundationModels, etc. fxfactory.com/info/fxcore/

I really, deeply, sincerely do not enjoy, like, or think Swift Structured Concurrency is a good direction.

FxFactory 9 brings our visual effect plugins to @Blackmagic_News Davinci Resolve: fxfactory.com/news/fxfactory…

Spotlight continues to suck beyond belief. Google can fuzzy-search the entirety of human knowledge on the Internet in less than a second and here we are, waiting for Spotlight to return just *some* results (least relevant ones first, of course) at the speed of a typewriter. And in macOS 26 it also misses some files entirely.

Let’s break some ice with an Apps in Space built with #FxCore – intro and compositions coming next.

Insane fact: Fil-C is the most memory safe programming language. Why? Because the transitive closure of your dependencies - all of those legacy C/C++ libraries you absolutely will depend on - is memory safe in Fil-C. You just recompile them with my compiler In other “safe” languages, you link to the unsafe versions of those libraries and pretend that that’s fine even though it’s totally not fine

@krzyzanowskim @Dimillian But it won’t be visible anywhere else… best we can do is have a “compliant” icon for Finder, about window, alerts, etc. and then a “out of the box” version applied via DockTile. I settled for one version only but you, sir, are braver than most :-)

it is possible to have non-square icon in macOS 26 after all. in your face @Dimillian !

@filpizlo I actually love Fil-C, has the same ring to it as Obj-C. MC works but somehow hints that this is a different language and it’s not. That -C does a lot to reinforce that this would just be a “special” C compiler.

I love the Fil-C name but it is confusing - makes folks think that this is a language. It’s not. It’s a memory safe implementation of C and C++. Maybe it should be called filcc Or maybe there’s a better name I haven’t thought of yet

How do I put this nicely... No amount of fiddling with it is going to make it better. You have a fundamental problem at the core of it. In order to fix it, you have to discard the idea in its entirety.

@MeghanMcCain Now do Congress.

I don’t know how anyone can think they will keep a job that loses their company $40 million a year.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions" can be shortened as "Swift Concurrency"

@XorDev Great idea!

I want to create a platform on my website for selling shader licenses. These shaders could be used for video games, websites and software with plenty of parameters to play with. There will likely be lifetime and subscription license options and I want it to be seamless to buy and easy to implement. My goal is to focus on creating new and interesting effects and not have to worry too much about the backend stuff. What’s the best way to go about this?

One goal for this piece was to capture the way the dust and gas swirls around the supermassive black hole, something usually not captured at this level of detail. I have a free 4k download and prints up to 75” on my website, so you can see every detail! cosmicbackground.io/pages/ea_the-s…

Here is a sneak peak of Yanobox Nodes 4 For AE , FCPX, Premiere and Apple Motion. This version supports voxels, 3D models, Styled Text, SSAO, Bloom and more at almost 120 I/s. Accelerated by Metal and pure joy on Apple Silicon. Comments and shares are welcome !

@SwipeWright @greg16676935420 you should take this.

Wisconsin is the drunkest state in the US, and it's not even close. What do you think is the cause?

@Boston_MA Congratulations on completing the first two-way moped lane on Boylston St sponsored by Chick-fil-A! A real milestone for our ambitious net zero targets. Seriously stop trying to defund them and go beg Boston Police to enforce road laws before someone gets run over.

TIL the Apple developer website recognizes the same ⌘ ⇧ O equivalent as Xcode’s Open Quickly... command and this is what true love fees like.
