Thanks to a good friend of mine I have a “tarta de queso” (cheesecake) recipe that is the Squarespace of baking. Even I cannot mess this up and I think this one turned out particularly well.

Has about a million calories per gram 🤣

If there's an iPhone or iPad app in the app store that is not selected for using on M1+ Macs, is there a way to run it on the Mac anyway?

@uliwitness There used to be but AFAIK that hole has been plugged.

I can’t be the only one looking at the “faster” UI in the video and still thinking “that looks super slow”

@pilky I thought they’d started with a slow motion shot and then it said “and now slower” 😅

My first package build / test run ever on 🚀

It’s actually quite easy to get started thanks to winget. Use it to install the dependencies (git, python, VS Studio 2022) and then Swift itself

winget install --id Swift.Toolchain -e

and off you go! 🎉

The main obstacle to make this happen was to trick myself into buying a Windows machine by rekindling my love for video games via a very delightful detour called the .

@finestructure@mastodon.social avatar

@helge Yeah, but that’s also definitely not how we’d start supporting Windows in SPI, so it had to be x86 at the start.

Pro Tip: Get in the habit of annotating your tuples. In six months, you're not going to remember which string is which:

func apiKeys() -> (String?, String?)

You future self will be happier with:

func apiKeys() -> (clientId: String?, clientSecret: String?)

You can even annotate the return values if you have a lot of complex logic before the return:

return (clientId: “CHOCK”, clientSecret: “NOUNDIES”)

@nicklockwood swift-tagged is also really nice for this:

Do you have to deal w/ 60k requests per second? Congratulations, you made it! Everyone else is probably going to be happy about 60 (no k) requests per second. Optimise for what you have, not what you dream of. Entirely different requirements.

“With the increased limit of the acceptance queue, and a patched version of wrk, we can now conclude that swift is a good competitor speed-wise as a web application server.

Memory wise it blows all the other technologies away, using only 2.5% of the amount of memory that the java implementation needs, and 10% of node-js.”

@mattiem I think it is in this case, because the idea is - what size VM do I need to run this workload and that’ll have a massive cost impact.

@rweir I don’t know, perhaps it’s what the author was familiar with?

@kittylyst @ratkins The backstory on this one is a bit richer than you might think. The initial benchmark raised a couple of questions which lead to a number of meaningful findings & fixes.

finestructure,
@finestructure@mastodon.social avatar

@opticalaberration Yeah, the Swift forums thread goes into that in detail and was very interesting.

there is a guy, who says that Swift on Windows is more complete than Swift on Linux. let that sink in 🤔

finestructure,
@finestructure@mastodon.social avatar

@compnerd So this worked really well in getting me started and now I’ve of course run head first into the wall that is swift-nio on Windows 😅

You don’t happen to have your fork available somewhere so I could give it a try?
