Why am I like this

This is one of those “one a billion” things. Structural failure is almost unheard of. And to be running a train over it? Huge yikes.

Thankfully no one was hurt. Curious to find out what happened!

Intamin: Some of our components explode.

B&M: Hold my beer.

Wishing everyone a lovely weekend from Brighton ☀️

Here’s a sneak peek at Big Mail running on visionOS:

C'mon guys "I'm lovin it" was sat RIGHT there

And he was fine with third party apps until he realised the developers were making money? Really?

This guy doesn’t have a coherent world view. And by being so defensive is obviously clutching at straws.

OpenAI aren’t gonna pay anything. They’ll just ‘accidentally’ ingest Reddit.

To alienate your top users over a few million dollars is incredibly stupid.

The schadenfreude I’ll have when the Reddit board eventually vote to remove this clown.

I fucked around and found out.

Had a poke around Thunderbird's source to see how they stop Gmail duplicating messages…

…turns out they just hide them in their UI…

Blessing your timeline with cute pictures of Ruby 🐶

Always pleasantly surprised to find new ways of using ChatGPT.

Today, debugging invisible characters I can't see.

Question for my Swift friends:
I'm seeing "lowerBound <= upperBound" crashes in a function similar to this.

If the range is constrained by another range (the line), how is it possible for it to go out of bounds?

What am I missing? Seems fine on all inputs I can think of.

1. If you just ask I usually do my best to accommodate you 🤓

2. 80% of the crashes last night were caused by 1 bug. It’s now fixed. So that’s 80% less people messaging me next time.

When you’re just one guy building something fairly complicated, that makes a huge difference!

Very excited to hear more about animated SF Symbols!

I've made a few of these myself in Big Mail by hand.

The new key framing API looks like it'll make this a lot easier, too. #SwiftUI

They compared it to the original Mac, iPod and iPhone.

But on day 1 those products were immediately and obviously better than anything that came before them.

Mac? An easy to use computer.
iPod? A better Walkman.
iPhone? A computer to go!

What does this do for us?

Perhaps I’ll have some magical transformational experience trying it on, but I just don’t understand this headset at all.

Apple had a chance to pitch why I should care, and they came up short. Why is this better?

“But imagine a future form factor!”

Okay, well if my grandma had wheels she'd be a bike.

Next year.
