Funny, exactly the same attitude as Vintage Planet, a guy that has spares for most vintage synthesizers: https://www.vintageplanet.nl/ He also has his own system for ordering, where you select the items, then he weighs them

So this is a private cable only used for Google services? I noticed connections to the US are so much better from Europe than in Argentina, would be a shame only the Googlenet gets a decent speedboost.

Still extremely busy at 42. It might help LinkedIn doesn’t show your age and I graduated only ten years ago, but I only once got the comment “I didn’t expect you to be this old”. That’s still a customer after years

Why doesn't it make a lot of sense? It requires for companies to have some representation here, probably the have a board of directors and a board of directors is where a retired politician usually goes to after their political career.

It would be interesting to see if there are also optimisations to keep the main (UI) thread clear as much as possible. I mean if I just clicked a button then probably that is the most interesting thing for me to happen, so responding to tha

I think it's actually my linter generating these warnings! But I do like them to be resolved so I consider them issues.

Just today I announced a sweep through all of the TODO's and to either turn them into issues, stories or remove them. Biggest problem in Xcode is that it clogs up the warning list and the real warnings get swamped by them. But it'

Apple probably uses SPM for new projects. But existing projects are probably not switching to SPM soon.

So apparently a lot of them do support SPM even when it doesn't say so in the README. Confusing, annoying. Out of a project with 10 dependencies I thought only 4 supported SPM by reading the README but in the end only one (which was my

Thanks for the insights. I would like to hang around for a few months at Microsoft just to see how such a big organisation (dis)functions. I really enjoy using MS tools for development, always had as I discovered C64 BASIC was made by them

It's interesting how Microsoft both showcases a really bad example of a JS hybrid application (Teams) and the more rare good example of it (VS Code). These guys should have talked sometime I hoped.

The scapegoat. The only one who ripped off the rich instead of the poor. I would like to see people like Paul Singer die in prison, who made the lives of millions of people miserable, but I guess it's all legal what he did...

I used an iPhone SE 2016 until recently and I never really ran into situations where an app was unusable because of this. Also a lot of these design mistakes could be described as “reinventing UINavigationBar or UITabBar, crappy”. One thing

At least with iOS you know it will take three years for something to come out of beta but then it's pretty solid. It's just Xcode that never gets fixed.
