how did you debug it? The CLI tools are close to useless. I never even found a way to get console output from a device without Xcode.

I've been using tuist plus codex cli and vscode. only using Xcode for running and debugging. I would love to get rid of xcode entirely. The tuist plus xcode project is a tiny shim - the rest of the app is in spm packages. Tuist generat

That's because all of those products are laughably bad compared to chat gpt or similar, and they are still bad despite the advances in AI. Apple integrated Siri with Chat GPT and some how managed to make it so much worse. It can't

This is great news, thank you. I have been looking into a way to port Soundscape Community [1], a navigation app for the blind to Android without having two codebases to maintain. Skip looks ideal; I was planning on asking you about licensi

The readme addresses this problem comprehensively. "The ultimate vision of Vojtux is "NO VOJTUX NEEDED!" because Fedora will be fully accessible." It's not really a distro in the usual sense, more a minimal customis

Docker does seem to be an unnecessary overhead considering it's reliance on a Linux VM. What does Docker bring to the table that couldn't easily be replaced with a native Mac app?

I really wish everyone would use semantic HTML wherever possible. The gains for accessibility are huge. Take a JS dialog or pop-up menu, for example. You would think it would be easy for everyone to use, but a screen reader user might not e

I hate my sonos setup now. It sounds great, but everything else has got worse since I bought them. The Sonos connect isn't supported by s2, the latency of changing volume got worse to the point that it is way too loud before you even n

recaptcha audio challenge is just a few words (in English) that you have to enter. Might be easier in some circumstances? You can press CTRL to repeat the audio.

And audio Captchas are in English. I suppose blind people who don't speak English or have any kind of hearing difficulty don't deserve accessibility.
