I've used platforms such as this to find and follow people that I thought to be the best in their craft (programming), that cared about their implementation and are very intentional in their work. I guess I somewhat aspired to be them in my work.

It's mind boggling to me, to what conclusions some of them came this week, comparing LLM-written code to compiler generated bytecode. Just in a single week, standards lowered, complete resignation.

Never meet your hero's I guess.

Front page of Le Monde.Cartoon showing a street in the rain. A man on a bike is delivering food, while another courier is delivering packages from Amazon. Two other workers are collecting garbage. Inside one of the houses on the street, we see robots labeled 'AI' sitting dry and warm, engaged in making a paining, playing the violin and writing.

@disrupted ah yeah, this is just a weird quirk of many. There's many APIs that are very handy (search bar as well) that only allow usage and customization in a certain way. As soon as you want something else, there's nothing you can do (except built it custom).

@disrupted I've got huge respect, that you threw yourself into it! Working with SwiftUI is a joy and also a curse.
Which things make you throw your head against the wall? Customizing/extending existing components? Or is managing state between various views/screens (so an architectural thing)?

Finally got to play The Last of Us 1 & 2. The were both amazing! I'm a bit sad, that I watched the 2nd season of the HBO show before, which spoiled me in some major ways, but nevertheless Part 2 was a crazy ride! Would recommend!

@disrupted holy shit! That's amazing. Such things always made me hesitate to make a small business and price my apps or add in-app purchases. Info on the internet was so often contradictory.

I don't know how he does it

George Clooney is an actor.

Put him in the role of a surgeon in front of a camera, and he will do and say things the average non-surgeon viewer will agree are surgeonish. After an hour of that, we are, as average non-surgeon viewers, satisfied and entertained.

Put him in an operating theatre, and the patient will fucking die because he's not a surgeon and knows nothing about really doing surgery.

This is a post about LLMs.

@stroughtonsmith is it possible that Shortcut actions for Broadcasts don't work anymore on iOS 26? I had an automation, when my alarm stops that it plays a radio station, but after updating it doesn't work anymore.
Nevertheless, love your app! Keep up the good work ✌🏻

@disrupted already made it through part 1! It was a great adventure! Only knew the series so far and it was interesting to compare to the game. Season 1 really nailed it.

@disrupted you're so productive, I'm slightly sick and playing TLOU πŸ˜„

Is #Xcode's code completion, quick help (documentation), rename and showing the call hierarchy just completely broken now? It's been barely working over the past year for me at my job. Either Xcode can't handle big projects with many packages anymore or the indexing got so slow, that it barely catches up until I change branches again. It's so frustrating 😀

@disrupted sure, I can help you if you're stuck or need advice 😬

some days you just strike an idea. something that motivates you and ignites a fire within, a passion to build. This week I had one of these days.

but first, here's a little backstory πŸ‘‡

@disrupted haha nice! Cool that you were able to adopt Swift and SwiftUI so fast 🫑

@imyke you're a really talented interviewer! Listing to the cortex interviews is such a joy! Your questions are so good!
