OK this is not Apple's fault and I'm not implying it is. But this whole thing is getting out of hand. The Internet is World Wide (mostly) and this path of countries having their own requirements for stores is a slippery path to control and oversight

🎙️ Just published a new episode of PW Podcast: Life and project balance. Have a listen:

Why yes, I do read daily.dev a fair amount :)

Working hard to finish the Android version of Job Finder Tracker. It now supports multiple resumes, something that the iOS version does not have yet. Learn more about the app at peterwitham.com/mobile-projec...

A note for those running Unreal Engine 5.7. x on Linux. I've found that the UI behaves weirdly, especially with menus and pop-ups. For me, going back to 5.6.x fixed it on CatchyOS at least.

Is it just me or are AI related activities costing more tokens than they used to? I feel like I'm burning through them on the same kind of tasks a lot quicker than say 1-2 months ago?

I am enjoying my first play-through of Star Rupture on the early Steam release. As a bonus, I'm playing it on Linux, and the performance is better than Windows youtu.be/PKiI5B-IXgc

I've just submitted a holiday project to the App Store - MathDown! A markdown editor with LaTeX support and in-document math evaluation and simplification, fully native for Mac, iPad, and iPhone. If that sounds fun to you, sign up to be notified when it's released! mathdown.app

Currently working on Job Finder Track for Android, you asked, I listened. Here are some screen grabs to tease. iOS version at peterwitham.com/jft

Woot, what a way to end the year! I do love reading daily.dev @dailydotdev.bsky.social

As one journal prepares to be closed forever, next years looks forward to fresh ink ready to hit the page. Going with some Color Verse TexMax. A nice deep spicy Red.

Today is all about fixing up my YouTube channel, I have been very negligent in keeping the content meta updated. Https://youtube.com/peterwitham

Medieval Dynasty is a fun game. I feel like I'm making progress by not dying and by actually starting to build my village. A great way to relax over my vacation, assuming the wolves don't get me LOL youtube.com/post/UgkxqWw...

I am curious how developers that make those cool vlogs showing development over time make the videos? Do you literally record your screen and whatever for the whole session then edit (huge files) or is there a trick? #vlogs #devlogs

A great use of AI was creating a quick username profanity filter for ProjectHack.net #indiedev #indiegamedev #ai

OK it’s happening. My project over the holiday is to install Linux on my old Intel iMac and make my new offline media center. Screw you streaming service overlords

It's another rough Monday with tragic events around the World. Hang in there, everyone. We win as long as we stay strong and believe in the good folks out there to combat evil.

I'm very excited to have a first beta out of a new SDK that I so far call MediaKit (I regret the name already). The idea is to make it super simple to create streaming media apps with Swift and SwiftUI. It's is so far pretty simple, but I look forward to working on it. github.com/Kankoda/Medi...

OMG, it is finally Friday, and it seems like this week was longer than usual. Happy Friday, everyone. Let's make the weekend count before those Mondays keep coming around.

I am curious to learn why Claude bought Bun. Anyone?

New episode of my UIBuzz Podcast -> Game balancing as a game developer and other updates. peterwitham.com/2025/uibuzz/...

Pen and paper is still my go to for initial prototype thinking, especially with game development.

The crunch to get everything done before 2 days is real. But I think I'm winning the battle.

As someone who wears bifocal glasses, I experience neck strain from constantly moving my head to read multiple screens at high resolutions. I tried reducing the resolution to make everything larger on macOS. And...it's actually working nicely. Who needs mega resolutions for those over 50? LOL

Don't forget Black Friday is coming up and all those deals are great. But you need a way to track those killer subscription deals. That's why www.subradar.app exists, your welcome :)

🎙️ Just published a new episode of PW Podcast: The pleasure of checking the box and sitting back. Have a listen:

Sub Radar gives you the ability to mark subscriptions as active or inactive. This is great if you disable a subscription, but you might renew it in the future. youtu.be/grnfMIaxDdM?...

🎙️ Just published a new episode of PW Podcast: Shipping app updates feels great. Have a listen:

Decided that I need to get tough now that BlueSky is just like all other platforms when it comes to content that I really don't want to see. So if you are into politics, sorry, you're out. You may have valid points, but politics are ruining society and positive vibes.

Sub Radar has an easy-to-understand color marker to show you which subscriptions are renewing in 7 days, a month, or longer. youtu.be/CiLvPDokErg?...

Friday is officially Friyay assuming I make it through the day. Welcome to the weekend countdown.

Sub Radar version 1.1 has been submitted for Apple review. It fixes two issues that may affect some users.

Thrilled that Apple chose Muse as App of the Day! Here's to creating cozy spaces for thinking 😊 apps.apple.com/us/story/id1...

Made it through another Wednesday, hope it goes just as good for y’all

If you're cancelling Game Pass today, grab a cheap indie game or two, and then put the rest of the money toward supporting indie games media by subscribing to your favourite podcasts/websites/etc.

I'm happy to announce that exactly 1 week from now, I'll be speaking at @swiftconnection.bsky.social in Paris about "Better Error Handling in Swift"! 🗣️ This is gonna be my first conference talk, and I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Still tweaking my slides... 😁 swiftconnection.io
