2026 beginning of the year cleaning up files on my PC and found this one a friend send me when working on some code. Every developer can relate. #solodev #indiedev #development
When I grow up I want to raise corporate profit margins through cost-cutting measures and revenue-optimization strategies!

If you don’t want to wait another WWDC and just hope that SwiftData gets iCloud sharing support, you don’t have to! SQLiteData is here today 😁
Accessibility isn't hard when you think about it from the start. So as the first weeks of the #Shipaton rolls on, consider what you can do to make your app more inclusive for everyone. #BuildInPublic #A11Y (5/5)

The Art of Fauna just *WON* an Apple Design Award in the Inclusivity category. 🤯 But it is also a finalist for Social Impact. 💚 Two nominations, one win. I still can't believe this. What a year 🥹 #indiedev #WWDC #WWDC25 #TheArtOfFauna

Point-Free@pointfree.co · last yr.We've had a major breakthrough in the most requested feature of our SwiftData alternative: SharingGRDB. More details coming soon... 👀

No, I’m not impressed when your fancy chess AI crushes me. I’ve been being beat by shit chess code since the early 80s. The ZX80 could beat me for half a ten billion trillionth the resources and energy.

Tell a friend to save a life: ❌ name.lowercased().contains(searchText.lowercased()) ✅ name.localizedStandardContains(searchText) The latter ignores case, but also ignores diacritics (cafe vs café), handles localized variants (ẞ → ss, etc), and is supported in SwiftData.
Did you know you can take great screenshots from a SwiftUI preview? Using this technique and Framous has made my screen shot workflow so, so easy. Framous is available at apps.apple.com/ca/app/framo...
Heard a song from the 80s reference a "long distance call" and it occurred to me that this is a concept that no longer holds any emotional currency whatsoever
