I put some thoughts out on #WWDC23 from an engineering managers perspective incase anyone finds planning and navigating this time of year tough. RT's welcome 😀 medium.com/slalom-build/f… #iosdev #swift

omg.. the animations on the firsts iphone were really insane.. i forgot that

Today’s the day we find out if we got #wwdc invites right?

@thespectator4 😂

What's happened to Apple stores ? used to be great for dropping in and trying out a product before buying. Popped into one today, with a view to buying a Laptop, 2 x Apple Watches and An iPhone. Left the store with none of these, advice was just to order online 🤯

when you are vibe coding and you finally try the app after an hour

Usually I try to just ignore this type of stuff and get on with my day, but I recently switched from spotify to apple music for reasons™, and the desktop user interface is so comically poor that I have to make a thread highlighting what I came across in one session, strap in:

Soul eating sunglasses? My bands new vid is out, demon cats and heavy riffs with southpark like animation 😂 youtu.be/9lqsd0OPhxU?si…

@austinc3301 @mlanett I have used MPC several times in the last year. Through in 10 mins from exiting the plane

@mlanett If the app says it’s not supported it’s not supported, but in some airports the MPC lane is the same lane for diplomats, and they won’t tell you unless you ask

Packed international flight. Huge queue at border control. Somehow I’m the only one out of the entire flight that knows about MPC. They open up a whole new lane for me, and I skip the entire line. I still don’t understand this

@flyosity This would be so rad. Technology aside the design has progressively got worse for me, I never liked the 4 design and feel like they have just riffed on that design ever since

If Jordan can re-release sneakers from the 90s made with modern materials, Apple should bring back the original iPhone with a full screen display

Last week I hosted family for Thanksgiving. My 12-year-old nephew asked for the WiFi password. He wanted to play Roblox on his iPad. I looked at the device. Unmanaged. No antivirus. No encryption. I’m an IT Professional. I don't run an open network. So I didn’t give him the password. Instead, I spent 45 minutes provisioning a Guest VLAN. I set up a captive portal. I throttled the bandwidth down to 56kbps. Then I blocked all traffic on ports 80 and 443. He came back crying. He said it wouldn't load. My sister screamed at me to "just let him play." I told her that Zero Trust architecture doesn't care about bloodlines. We didn't have a "fun" Thanksgiving. But we had a secure perimeter. You’re welcome for the compliance.

@O2PriorityUK absolute mess - no seat I click on allows me to select it, then randomly get booted out - had to switch devices 3 times and still unable to purchase available tickets

I'm looking for a JUNIOR iOS Developer to join my team for an exciting opportunity in a growing industry. We've not released the product just yet, so forgive the vagueness. Feel free to send me a DM, recommend folks, etc. Junior developers only, please!

@harshil I might have to try 70% lol

@russnettle Oh yeah I felt the same when I was fully extending my arms to lockout, now I just take them like 90% of the way and it's much better

The preacher curl bench is easily a top 5 cause of body dysmorphia cause what even is this??

Are we living the plot from Unbreakable?

Remember all those times you told clients / product teams not to use X platform tools that don't use native components...... #WWDC25

I really hope for WWDC there is a big upgrade to Music on Mac, it feels like its just riddled with legacy bugs

Bad enough waking you to Bono installed on my iPod, new he going to be in my eyes 👀

@thederril His name was Robert Paulson

@russnettle We can't talk about it

Are we living the plot of Fight Club now?
