Thought I’d share my most recent espresso gadget purchases.

1. The Eureka Mignon dosing funnel greatly reduces mess when grinding into the portafilter.

2. The Normcore Spring Loaded tamper has made tamping properly much easier because it rests on the basket, ensuring a level tamp. I can’t believe not all tampers do this these days.

3. The E&B Lab puck screen is my most recent addition. I’ve found that using it results in a much cleaner group head and a firmer puck that’s easier to knock out.

My goodness it is going to be warm next week for WWDC(🥵).

Definitely a sunscreen, hat and shade kind of situation.

For a platform that was effectively leaked in full, extended, minute detail ahead of last WWDC, we've heard shockingly little about anything coming to visionOS 2.0…

I think my biggest Vision Pro quality of life feature would be that when using the Mac Virtual Display thingy the audio should come through my headset not my Mac's speakers

What are folks' strategies with using the StoreKit 'requestReview' call? Given that Apple controls when the user sees this, I often see advice that you should be pretty aggressive with calling this - is this how you call it?

Have you seen any evidence that you're penalized with this strategy? I have an app that gets pretty decent volume, and is calling this aggressively, but is getting very few ratings 🤔

It’s that moment in Friday evening when I realize I can sleep in until I wake up tomorrow. Aiming for ten hours!

Dumb question, but if I bought one of those "MagSafe stickers" on Amazon, that are traditionally used to give an Android phone MagSafe-like-stickiness, could I instead use it in reverse, and stick it to a non-MagSafe accessory so it would stick to my iPhone?

For instance, say I want to stick it to a banana so the banana magnets to my phone

Didn’t know what to expect and I LOVED it. https://mastodon.social/@polygon/112457408490806200

I really don't care to approach the neighbors with issues, so I renamed our wifi: Maybe Calm Down With The Goddam Leaf Blowing, Joe.

@MuseumShuffle I get to be part of the weather crew? Nice :)

I'm sorry for flooding your timelines all day but it's been so darn exciting! Tonight I'll go to bed not only having had a launch day that exceeded all of my wildest expectations, but I'll also have had Plinky cupcakes in my Plinky hat with a Plinky colored bouquet, courtesy of my perfect partner Colleen.

I would love it if you try the app, and if you think Plinky can make your life a bit better, please enjoy the 50% yearly discount. https://plinky.app/offer/REDPANDA

#DeepDishSwift has been amazing again. It's a highlight of the year and reminds me of all the reasons I enjoy being part of the Apple community of developers. It relieves the cynicism that builds up in the day to day grind of work.

My first attempt at making an espresso tonic did not go as planned 🌋

A glass of tonic next to an espresso shot. In the background is an espresso machine. The espresso shot is poured into the glass of tonic causing the mixture to produce foam and flow out of the glass. It looks like a small coffee explosion.

My episode of the @DeepDishSwift Slices podcast is out! This may be the most unhinged podcast I’ve ever been a part of 😅

Listen to me horrify @malin and @kaidombrowski with this crime I committed against Italian cuisine 🍕

Hey internet friends 🤗 I have a big announcement to make and this time it doesn't have anything to do with apps 🤓

Last month, our daughter was born and it is so incredible and wonderful to have her in the family now. I haven't been very active here nor done any work recently, as my wife and I were busy getting to know the little one and enjoying quality time to bond as a young family 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 🥰

PS: As many of you know I am very fond of dad jokes, so now I am officially entitled to make ‘em 😜

My side projects as I press play on yet another YouTube video about coffee.

You know it's going to be a good conference when these are some of the channels in the conference discord. #DeepDishSwift
