RE: toad.social/@KimPerales/115956

“Apple’s Tim Cook is among a group of CEOs being eviscerated for traveling to the White House on the same day Border Patrol agents killed a Veterans Affairs nurse in Minneapolis.

"Cook, who gifted President Donald Trump a 24-karat gold desk ornament on his last White House visit, returned on Saturday to attend a dinner and screening of the first lady’s new documentary, ‘Melania.’”

When we look back on his leadership in the future, let this be Tim Cook's legacy.

@jessetipton oh neat I’ll check it out! Not super modularized unfortunately but I’m sure it’ll help a bit

feeeed was taking 45 minutes to compile and apparently there's simply no way to optimize your swift compiler times besides writing less code and avoiding type inference (impossible in swiftui) so uhh let's just delete a bunch of stuff i guess! makes me wonder what the largest real swift app is

i've got this huge archive of random past work that i'd love to write up some day. in the meantime, i've made a virtual filing cabinet you can rifle through and put it on my website. lots of junk, some gems!

the upside of this and Tim Cook's other ass-kissing is that you can't really trust apple anymore. they will "manage" the trump admin the same way they manage the CCP — by rolling over.

years of privacy positioning, worth nothing!

@timonus at least I don’t have to worry about how to make my sidebars and toolbars look consistent with apple’s anymore 🙃

Thanks to macOS Tahoe and SwiftUI i fear electron apps will be both more performant and better looking than their native counterparts. Sad !

Screenshot of a macOS "drag app to applications folder" installer but there are three applications folders that are titled "Drag here?" "or maybe drop here?" and "don't get it wrong!" The app is called "Tangerine" and the icon is an orange.
