Xcode 10 and playgrounds are still an awful joke that lacks the majority of the error affordances of an Xcode project. Also WTF is the value of this?

Obvious outcome: Sand blasting some designer friendly stripes / patterns is an easy fix.

Dear @AppleSupport, we noticed a *HUGE* security issue at MacOS High Sierra. Anyone can login as "root" with empty password after clicking on login button several times. Are you aware of it @Apple?

I write Swift every day at work, and as much as I love the language the state of Apple’s dev tools for iOS is intolerable. In contrast I’ve been writing Kotlin and Java using IntelliJ IDEA for the past fortnight and its been great. Everything works, I’m productive, and happy.

Internal expandability. Ability to swap out internal components. Lots and lots of built-in ports. Obviously the current MacPro isn’t to me.

One thing I’ve been dabbling with for a side project: a functional Swift server that is highly composable and testable!

Turns out that Tesla isn't a good fit for me after all. I'm interested to hear about interesting roles for a seasoned engineering leader!

The Apple engineers have been having a lot of fun with both building new APIs and using their new APIs everywhere on iOS 11.
