Quick timeline cleanse. Merry Christmas and happy holidays from Rocket and me! 🎄(He’s my 8-week-old mini poodle who I’ve had for only 4 days 🐶🥰 and I am absolutely in love with this sweet pup 🩷🤗)

How’s your day today with the AWS outage? 🙃 When AWS is down, the digital world halts haha

To the macOS team at Apple: Please put the volume/sound UI thing back in the middle of the screen and with clear level segments. Having to look up to the right corner of the screen when adjusting volume does not feel good. This is me begging sort of. 🙏🏽 Thank yew.

👋🏼 Friendly reminder to Clean (Xcode’s) Dirty Diaper if things are behaving unexpectedly during development. (Also known as Clear Derived Data.) It’s a quick wipe, and nobody wants to take the time to do it, *butt* it’s necessary. Thank yew 🙂

In a SwiftUI app, if you were tasked with building an infinite video feed (like TikTok, YT shorts, etc), what would you use to do it? IGListKit, or roll your own in UIKit (*representable), or something else? Or is there a good SwiftUI implementation? (No haters pls)

The most impactful Swift content I’ve ever consumed is authored by @alexozun.com Please visit his site, swiftology.io and read/watch everything. It has completely changed the way I approach writing Swift. You too will be better off after learning from Alex!

Xcode Folders for the win! 🤩 Check out my diff from converting from Groups to Folders!

If anyone can replicate the absolutely flawless camera/video shutter button in TikTok, I applaud you and please let me know if you that’s you! In particular, it somehow flawlessly handles single tap and long press gestures with zero delays. Incredible. 🤩

I’ve heard about GetStream.io over the years but haven’t looked into it. If one were to put a camera in an app using AVFoundation & put custom controls on top, what unforeseen complexities would there be that would make you wish you’d used Stream to begin with? Genuine question. Any insight?
