This is pretty fun - in #Swift 5.9 and up, with the ability to use case and if statements to assign, you can very tersely express matching to more than one case of an enum. For example:

Young adults who go out drinking: enjoy your beers now. The time will come when you spend as much for a beer at home as you spend now for a beer in a bar. Ask me how I know.

I don't really do selfies much but I couldn't resist the opportunity to get a rather nice #quokkaselfie taken when I was recently on Rottnest Island, and share it with y'all on this very lovely Boxing Day.

For anyone who needs to know, you can mute the term “Die Hard”.

My iOS emoji picker was rejected because of ”Guideline 5.2.5 - Legal - Intellectual Property. Your app contains features that mimic the Apple emoji catalog from iOS interface or behavior." Very strange, since Emojis are part of the global unicode standard and I'm just using standard #SwiftUI sidebars, grids and callouts 🤔

Do you, like us, have a huge backlog of Covid tests from the days of free tests? Take a few minutes to go through and mark their updated expirations on the packages, so you can sort them. Some ours don't expire until July and it would be a shame to use them now. https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/coronavirus-covid-19-and-medical-devices/home-otc-covid-19-diagnostic-tests

I saw a couple of these on the road a week or so ago, and I couldn't believe my eyes. So incredibly ugly. I had never heard of them, but apparently, they are "trucks" from Tesla? No marking to indicate the manufacturer. Anyhow, this is an accurate picture of both the vehicle and its driver.

I have to give a negative shout-out — a "shout-at"? — to the Covered California website, for being so poorly implemented. It's like having to learn to use the web all over again. Clicking buttons and then having to wait 10 seconds to see if it took effect is par for the course…

Are you constantly switching between several code editors because none of the seem "right”, or are you neurotypical?

The legendary Dan Wood (https://mastodon.social/@danwood@mastodon.cloud) is job hunting. His groundbreaking Mac app "Watson" led to the ubiquitous term "Sherlocked" when Apple introduced their own VERY similar app to his. If you are looking for a time-tested visionary in Apple ecosystems, give him a ring!
