@luksape Congratulations Lukas. I haven't tried your other work by Timelines is stunning.

Today marks 15 years of building apps for me. What a journey! There's been lots of trials and tribulations over the years, but I'm so grateful that I get to do what I love for work. lukaspetr.com/15-lessons-fro…

Working Copy 1.0 was released for iOS 8 ten years ago today making it possible to clone, edit, commit and push from iPhone and iPad. Pro unlock is 33% off to celebrate the 10 year anniversary. Please tell all your developer friends.

@codeOfRobin I have no idea if what the LLM does is sensible but why shouldn't it be possible to parallelize reading a zip? Each file entry is compressed independently so having the list of entries you could read+deflate file entries in parallel.

@jacobtechtavern I'm so basic still using objc_sync_enter/objc_sync_exit for that.

Advanced Swift Concurrency: don't use actors!! You can protect access to shared mutable state AND keep your API synchronous by using OSAllocatedUnfairLock.

@SteveMoser Do you know if the ISO layouts of this keyboard changed similarly?

Interesting new key on the new [deep breath] Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad for Mac models with Apple silicon (USB–C) Apple replaced the wide Control key in the lower left corner with a 🌐global key and they replaced the function key below the F13 key with a Menu key. Does anyone know what the Menu key does? Anyone have one? cc @zollotech Is this the first time the Menu button has appeared on an Apple keyboard? The Menu icon looks exactly like the Menu key on some Windows keyboards.

Can anyone at @Meta help me with the Tech Provider verification? We are completely done with a new amazing feature for our Teleprompter app (live streaming), but Meta keeps rejecting and asking for more info while not giving us any info what they are looking for.

PARENTS: please check your kid's candy this halloween - i just found a 12-month enterprise salesforce contract for 15 seats with auto-renewal and a $50,000 early breakup fee inside this snickers bar

@pfandrade_ Can you really lie to a machine? I would make it super clear in the README such that they don't waste human time if they feel you broke the rules.

@palmin I’m sure I can lie to get through, but I’d say I’d be starting with the wrong foot asking for help on their side 😝

Apparently, nowadays you need a sample project to file DTS with Apple. Otherwise they just send you to Apple Developer Forums. I have filed a Feedback, attached Safari crash logs, and steps to reproduce the issue with an app on the App Store. But alas, that’s not enough…

@btbytes my favourite iPhone repair shop also sells candy

That's just entrepreneurial hustle.. ;) An acquaintance that runs a party furniture rental also offers web development services on the same website.

@jacobtechtavern @krzyzanowskim @rmenezes89 It would have been cruel if they had called the language Safe but they did not. It kind of sucks that you need to switch to another language if you want performant for-loops.

@krzyzanowskim @rmenezes89 @palmin Comparing to C is a little cruel, no? Why not a comparable modern statically typed memory safe language like Rust or Kotlin

I'm a bit confused about the way the open source "Swift rewrite" of Foundation has got. It still relies on private Obj-C NSFoundation implementation with some Swift wrappers around it, isn't it (I thought the hype was that rewrite to swift make it faster) github.com/swiftlang/swif…

@krzyzanowskim Try to implement some algorithm from first principles i C and in Swift, run it many times and measure which one is faster. C always wins in my tests and sometimes compiling C to WebAssembly even beats Swift compiled to native arm.

@palmin most of the time I see is back to calling libc and manual memory allocation that make the performance. It rarely if ever come from the "common" Swift source code we're familiar with

I want to verify a fix in S3 Files when using raw IPv6 endpoints like http://[2001:db8:85a3::8a2e:370:7334]/ Do you use S3 Files and have a MinIO instance on a IPv6 network where you could try? Can't do it myself as I'm restricted to IPv4 the next week for fall break reasons.

@Sailorsvenden Det er altid om to år. fortune.com/2015/12/21/elo…

Om et par år kan jeg smide mine tre børn i bilen med lidt fredagsslik, bede min Model Y om at køre dem til Mormor pp Sydfyn mens de bliver underholdt på vejen. Samtidig prajer vi en CyberCab og tager i byen.

65 doctors, nurses, and paramedics told the New York Times what they saw in Gaza. What they saw was a pattern of children being shot in the head.

gpt-3 from 2020 was a huge leap forward in natural language understanding and for the core tasks of translation and summarisation it improved a lot with gpt-3.5 two years later. The improvements with gpt-4 even for latest 2024 versions are much less pronounced.
