I found that crushing scene disturbing 😳

@finestructure it might make sense if the fine print at the video end includes that that whole scene render was done on iPad!

@finestructure you are right; even if you had to squish some emojis to make the product, it is not pleasant to see it. Like the saying that you don’t want to necessarily see the sausage factory video, but still enjoy the final product.

I'm having an "I want to throw my Mac out of the window" kind of day. I hope yours is going better 😅

@twostraws I did lose 1 hour this week with simulators that refused to start. It required, in addition to the XCode derived data incantation, a System Settings>General>About>storage settings>Developer(info)XCode Caches(click/highlight)>Delete…(plus confirm sheet) spell. Thank you StackOverflow

Once you discover Japanese stationery, it’s very hard to ever go back.

@twostraws I am locked into Blackwing pencils. They are in California and you could get some while at WWDC. Otherwise +1 on the Japanese excellence.

It is a bit unfortunate that one can't backup to and restore a database from a byte buffer. Otherwise one could also use it to send serialized data over the network 🙈

@finestructure @helge @inthehands I’m still not sure why you need it in a buffer but the litestream.io site has remote use of the backup API. Written in Go but has a MacOS brew available.

Apple Watch first went on sale 9 years ago today. ⌚️

I’m going for 3250 days of hitting my Move goal.
2 days until my next virtual enamel; 4 watches including day one order. The link watchband is still one of my favorite Apple products.

Woof, what a great idea to open that GDPR cookie jar with an off-the-cuff post while half awake at 5am 🤣

stevehume,
@stevehume@mastodon.social avatar

@finestructure Yes. I was looking for the follow-up where you revealed the code for non malicious compliance to GDPR cookies that would make you rich; I realized that I would not find it. A simple example of at least allowing a saved cookie that refuses data collection but can save a cookie to remember that refusal.

@jsq I did a two-finger long-press on the ALT tag in the photo using ice cubes app to view the full description.

Tomorrow @mikaelacaron and I are recording the next episode of @swiftovercoffee! We'd love to have your opinion for our next open ballot: do developers also need to be designers? Reply here with your view and we'll read out our favorites!

@twostraws @mikaelacaron @swiftovercoffee A developer should study designs that work; that is part of the job. One choice is the list versus hierarchy; humans will tolerate long lists where they are sure to find the answer. Hierarchies are hard to discover. Apple Fitness Awards section was becoming a too-long list. Their IOS17 iPhone version is beautiful, but clearly used a designer to get this level of polish. You must be aware of frustrating hierarchies—do not implement.

Serious question: how do you understand what's the error in a C program? So far I've only ever got crashes, isn't there ever any feedback what went wrong?

stevehume,
@stevehume@mastodon.social avatar

@icanzilb You remind me of the early days on a PDP8. No IDE. Sprinkle in some printf statements and see how far the code gets; then sprinkle in some new ones. Then printf all the variables of interest to figure out the bug.
