equally, SwiftUI is getting updates fairly regularly, and although a bit underwhelming this year, it's still a push forward, edging ever so slowly towards replacing UIKit https://developer.apple.com/wwdc24/10144

time to let out the beast within the mighty B58 engine a little, so next week i'm going to put my M140i through a resonator delete and see if I want more (probably) my neighbors need to liven up a little too

“the fish rots from the head down” is such a perfect encapsulation of the modern corporate culture of lack of responsibility, accountability, and blame shifting I experienced in the last 15 years in tech however, I see that founders here prefer to do the opposite and work on their integrity kudos to those who do

i don’t get it. last week it was Germans trying to DDoS me, issuing about 28k requests a day from 2-3 IPs, this week is Dutch. they have a problem with me existing on the internet or what? that said, Firewalla kicks ass and I don’t even feel it when it’s 300k reqs blocked per day
