lmao seeing a github project's main branch renamed to 'mistress' has me howling

i want the exact syntax highlighting and theme of the default darcula in IntelliJ on Xcode :(

starting to coin sunday mornings as #OpenSourceSundays and focus on either contributing to open source projects or make my own. this weekend i noodled on some backend work and came up with Runlet! github.com/tjb/Runlet #OpenSource #Kotlin #SpringBoot #DataEngineering

doing a 1.0 release and i refuse to promote my app cause im too scared so this is my promo post

setting up @revenuecat.com wasnt too bad! campaigncodex.app will be my first subscription app so im excited to give it a shot

mid month (smol) update coming to Whenish next week! this will introduce localization for Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Japanese! #iOSDev #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #AppStore #SwiftLang apps.apple.com/us/app/wheni...

Recently, I was asked interesting question. If the purpose of an actor is to protect mutable state, is a stateless actor pointless? It is definitely something to look at closely, but there are some uses that can make sense. www.massicotte.org/stateless-ac...

little marketing site update to campaigncodex.app #iOSDev #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #iOSApp

im so functional programming pilled it hurts looking at go code makes my eyes hurts smh

i am on @tangled.org now! tangled.org/tjb.dev

how does anyone specialize in anything. im interested in 20 things all at the same time.

the amount of side projects just dying in some directory on my mac makes me sad

death to object oriented programming?

shipped an iMessage app that turns group scheduling chaos into a simple poll. 337 people downloaded it yesterday and i still think that's wild. take it for a spin: apps.apple.com/us/app/wheni... #iOSDev #BuildInPublic #Social #IndieDev #iMesssage #AppStore

"A minimal viable program is the smallest program that solves a particular problem. It is small and beautiful. It has no additional features." dont tempt me with a good time!

happy saturday #masters

i deleted all social media besides bluesky (which honestly i should as well) and my mental health skyrocketed. so much opportunity is missed to just enjoy something cause you see what a million other people say before forming your own opinion

ok @spacetimedb.bsky.social is sick af

me recently

thank god i found it again

ngl im hella impressed with Dropbox’s iOS app. i love i can scan something using my camera and it turns into a pdf for uploads.

it’s been a minute but i pushed an update to Whenish and immediately got two sales. i need to do more regular updates to keep engagement up! #iOSDev #IndieDev apps.apple.com/us/app/wheni...

getting more into data infra & data eng its fun not having to worry about a UI all the time

chicago bears maybe moving to hammond Indiana? did hell freeze over? asking for a friend: is it illegal to burn sports paraphernalia or was that right taken away too? #chicagobears #nfl

made a lil football account that reposts #NFL news here on Bluesky. introducing @fromthegridiron.bsky.social it was fun building and deploying something :)

where are all the #nfl accounts to follow here?

first dungeons and dragons sessions as a dungeon master was a great success. Dragons of Stormwreck Isles is such a great campaign to start with. everyone was new to the game and everyone said yes to a second session :) #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpg

truly grateful to those who beta test apps. i send out a TestFlight a bit about for Campaign Codex. someone has been giving me phenomenal feedback. it’s so motivating. #BuiltInPublic #IndieDev #iOSDev #TTRPG

built a cli tool awhile back that does a query cost analysis ($$) with @clickhouse.com by looking at the system table and doing some simple maths with your infra cost. curious if people care about their dollar cost per query vs. cpu cost etc #DataEngineering #Clickhouse #DatabasePerformance

is elixir all that it’s cracked up to be? hard to get over not having types and im not a fan of the gradual typing that’s being introduced

ive been in a couple software engineering communities and so far my favorites are: 1. clojure: everyone is very kind and willing to help. lots of senior engineers in the space 2. swift/ios: lots and lots of builder here which is awesome. indie dev is alive. everyone is willing to answer questions.

added Conditions capabilities to the Combat Tracker in Campaign Codex! you are now able to track conditions on your adventurers during combat! updates coming to TestFlight soon :) #iOSDev #BuildInPublic #DungeonsAndDragons #IndieDev #TTRPG

the future is typed long live typed languages

as much as i love other languages (esp those that focus more on FP) i always come back to java. something about it being my first language and it feeling like home just "feels right". does anyone else feel this way with their first language?

writing some gleam be like

got my first feature request email for Whenish from a user who uses the app! is this what builders feel all the time when users use their apps and give feedback? im hooked download Whenish here 👇 apps.apple.com/us/app/wheni... #iOSDev #IndieDev #Swift #AppStore

happy sunday. ftp. #chicagobears #sundayfootball

🎲 dungeon masters 🎲 ive been working on a DM campaign management app and need your feedback! Campaign Codex = combat tracker + npc database + quest manager + session notes in ONE iPad app. Alpha testing NOW: testflight.apple.com/join/sHhM6ZyB #DnD #TTRPG #DungeonMaster #iOSDev #IndieDev #Indie

TIL unsigned int doesn’t need to use 1 bit to store the sign (positive/negative) of an integer
