I wanted to report an issue on Apple Maps to tell it a 2-way street is actually 1-way, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to report this specific type of problem with the data 😕

// Only access this property via the queue

Narrator: but it was not only accessed via the queue

Clouds so puffy it looks like they’re rendered with Cel Shading

Great shot of the Aurora from Canberra on Saturday. It might be even better if it weren’t a cloudy night.

@huwr HDR really makes all the difference init’

I might be biased but the flight paths for the final approach to land in SFO is my favorite. Often it crosses the bay, which is spanned by not one but several bridges, all visually interesting, then takes you right by the distinctive skyline of downtown San Francisco.

@saagar seeing planes take off just above you while driving on the 280 is also a great moment.

I’m in Europe for the first time in years.
An odd thing I immediately noticed were the numerous & omnipresent contrails making the sky “polluted” with lines.
Living in Melbourne, we forget that we are lucky to be able to look at the sky in its untouched form (apart from the occasional SYD<->JSB overflying us).
Reminds me of how we’re hiding the Milky Way with light pollution.

Second thing I noticed is that all the websites I frequently visit now ask me if cookies are okay 🍪

finestructure, to Tennis

I watched a lot of #tennis in 80s and 90s and I've only recently started following it again a bit more.

Back then hardly anyone ever played stops on clay court (or other surfaces, mostly makes sense on clay to begin with, I suppose).

They seem to be very common now, I wonder why?

Probably not player skill and if anything players are more athletic and faster to the net. Is it because players hit harder and therefore tend to be further back in the court, becoming more susceptible to stops?

@finestructure “stops”? You mean drop shots?

layoutSubviews,
@layoutSubviews@mastodon.social avatar

@finestructure I think it’s a combination of the gear getting better (rackets nowadays are to 90s rackets what they themselves were to 60s rackets) and players realising drop shots are incredibly effective at depleting the opponent’s stamina: even if they get to it and win the point, they had to expense a lot of energy to get it, more than if they just slugged the point comfortably behind the baseline.

@finestructure and of course, it forces the opponent to never stray too far away from the net, making it more likely to hit a winner

@nicklockwood Great use of only a handful of triangles, but lacking textures.

@nicklockwood I could definitely see it being used as the background artwork for a Voodoo 2 clone box, with some kind of sexy wizardress in front of it

@ryanbooker I gotta say, the graphical style is great. But the script… standards were different back then 😓

@layoutSubviews@mastodon.social avatar

In Xcode 15.4, SPM now auto-generates Swift symbols for catalog assets.
That's great! Except they're declared internal, therefore they're useless in a package whose sole purpose is defining a Design System 😕

@layoutSubviews@mastodon.social avatar

@ryanbooker Don't you have a GeneratedAssetSymbols.swift file generated in DerivedSources/ ?

@harshil the way software is built/linked inside Apple is totally different from what 3rd party devs use. No surprise nobody notices these glaring omissions.

@layoutSubviews@mastodon.social avatar

@NeoNacho @tonyarnold if it’s an internal package and I’m the sole consumer of it, I don’t care if it breaks. That’s actually the whole point.

@tonyarnold @harshil nah mate, gotta put AI in the Calculator first.

@david @harshil the thing is, they don’t. Everything is delivered in a giant nightly SDK you install first thing in the morning while sipping a cup of coffee.
If you really need to use something another team just made that day, you install a “root” which is just a tarball overwriting the relevant files in the SDK.
Gross? Yeah. Does it matter? No, tomorrow morning you wipe it all off and install a fresh SDK anyway.

90% (99%?) of the problems you have writing apps are nothing to do with the UI framework you use.

@bazscott Maintaining apps, however, is where it matters.
