Designing your own keyboard than beating your best typing speed is a nice feeling 😊

Okay re: my HomeKit button search, Tuo wins 🥹

(The button is also really dope, feels faster than my Hue dimmer with non-Hue HomeKit accessories, and no hub!)

Huh, WidgetCenter's getCurrentConfigurations() method doesn't seem to have an async await variant, that's a curious one

My new favorite Siri quirk is using a HomePod to set a timer, then checking up on the timer and a different HomePod responding and having no idea what I’m talking about and then running around the house whispering at HomePods to find the one that accepted the command initially

After not having touched the ring switch in 9 years I am excited for a customizable button

Random question: which hand do you use to hit the '6' key on your keyboard?

Apple employees at this store said it was the biggest launch since the iPhone X that they could remember. Wonder what has everyone so jazzed this year. Titanium? USB-C?

Does the low battery noise on AirPods ever make anyone else accidentally poop themselves?

Pixel Pals 2.0.6 is now available with a fully transparent widgets option 🫥 (as well as lots of other background customization 🥳)

Transparent home screen widgets are really fun, can show just about anything too. Weather, storage, battery, calendar, time, date, quotes

Eventually every app ends up with a helper function like this

For the new Pixel Pals iOS 17 update, I built a fully interactive mechanical keyboard widget and recorded a bunch of different key click sounds from my own keyboard to use with it, it’s a really fun fidget toy on your home screen 😚

Diff colors and sizes too

I love Monodraw so much. Nothing quite like coming back to a complicated block of code and seeing I drew a nice diagram explaining it ☺️

My monthly "new Apollo pins arrived on merch store" post, bought more this time but they've sold out pretty quickly historically and I'm not sure if I'm going to get new ones after this, so get 'em while they last! https://cottonbureau.com/people/apollo

Quick reminder that today is the last day to get on the list for an Apollo plushie before they're sent into production! https://shop.apolloapp.io/

I keep getting reports of this Pixel Pals fake on the App Store (that stole my artwork and screenshots and is running ads with scammy costly weekly subs), but the only way I can seemingly report this is a form that gives this creep my home address.

Is there anything I can do?

Sometimes I forget there was a period of television where new episodes of Community, Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock, and The Office all aired back to back on the same night

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

Anyone have Mac software recommendations for an app where I could draw a rectangle or shape with specific dimensions (say, 20 inch by 20 inch), and then allow me to print that, flowing it across multiple pages if needed?

Other visionOS/SwiftUI/WebKit question: anyone know why if I move my WKWebView from my view to my model (instead of the view, for more control), if it's ever re-used in another window (after its original window closes), it loses all interactivity?

SwiftUI noob question: I understand why my ViewModel is being initialized twice, but why is it not being deinitialized?

It's created, then a second later when appState.show is changed, the view is recomputed, and view, and its ViewModel, are created anew. Cool! But why is the old one not deinitialized? What's holding onto it?

Sample code: https://gist.github.com/christianselig/d88b1a4d1989b973689ae62d4691162f
