Congrats to the Swift team for a big update. It's exciting to see a mainstream language bring distributed actors for IPC/RPC (on the path to memory safety, almost completing the 2017 Swift Concurrency Manifesto) and native /regex/'s integrated with pattern matching! 💯🏎

My team is hiring intermediate & sr iOS devs. The work-life balance is unparalleled. The culture & benefits are amazing. The product is noble; making cell service more affordable for all (HUGE plans this year). SwiftUI opportunities too 😝. Ask me anything for more details! #ios

Oh hey, 5 years at Apple today. Here’s hoping for many more!

Actually, passing a function as a parameter is not safe either (forums.swift.org/t/passing-func…). Guess the [weak self] dance is the best option after all…

My capital is bombed right now. People hiding in shelters, filming the lights from their homes, not knowing how to behave, still supporting each other with dignity and care. Europe, never again you said, yes? Why you promised what you knew you won't stop when it happens again?

Marking Steve’s birthday never gets any easier. In these challenging times, I’m remembering his call for us to use our time wisely, to pursue excellence, and to leave the world better than we found it. Today would have been his 67th birthday.

I really wish people were more familiar with the original context of the “premature optimization” quote, because it is not nearly as general a statement as a lot of people seem to want it to be. Here is the actual text from Structured Programming with go to Statements, by Knuth.

Better yet, use the new Foundation Date.VerbatimFormatStyle API, which uses custom string interpolations to provide a much less mistake-prone (and compile-time-checkable!) formatting language. Here’s parsing with it (from 2021 “What’s New in Foundation”):

Hey iOS developer , Make sure, you're using "yyyy" and not "YYYY" in your date format strings. Typically you want to use "yyyy" to represent a four-digit calendar year (e.g. "2021"), while "YYYY" represents a so called 'week year' Example :

As we embark on 2022, let us remember that even in the face of great challenges, humanity can achieve profoundly good things. And we will. Be safe, be well, and have a happy new year.

Next week we’ll begin tackling a topic we’re quite fond of: modularity. We will define and explore various kinds of modularity, and we’ll show how to modularize a complex application from scratch using modern build tools. See you then!

When you drive your application’s navigation from state, you unlock some truly amazing things. Here we have an application that can dynamically switch between SwiftUI and UIKit at the press of a button! 🤯 Learn how: pointfree.co/episodes/ep170…

Our hearts go out to all those affected by the devastating weather and tornadoes across the South and Midwest. Apple will be donating to support relief efforts on the ground.


Deeply respect ⁦@tim_cook⁩ and wish US could get the same commitment from ⁦@Apple⁩ to, ‘…help [US] manufacturers develop “the most advanced manufacturing technologies” and “support the training of high-quality [American] talents.”’ theinformation.com/articles/facin…


I also hope that a future watchOS will have a feature to turn-off all notifications for the watch, and on the watch itself. 9to5mac.com/2021/12/01/app…
