Physics Friday.

The past two years I've made it out to Hala Kahiki with a small group from the conference. Great convos and beverages.

Deep Dish Swift 2027 • April 4th to 6th@deepdishswift.com · last wk.

What's your favorite Deep Dish Swift memory? Part ticket-sales trap, sure. But honestly, I just love hearing them 🍕

Know it's little ol' me, but I just hit 1000 tickets created in Linear for @dewygolf.bsky.social; I'm astonished at the amount of work I've put in.

Just booked my @deepdishswift.com ticket and so excited to attend again in 2027.

Part of building out @dewygolf.bsky.social is building a process and task management system that is flexible, able to work on multiple machines/droplets. Seeing the system churn on ~40k golf courses has been rewarding and very excited to see new courses come "on line" daily.

I’ve optimized the map collection process to the extent that what was initially expected to take 30 days for the entire USA can now be completed in less than 2 days. Still have more processing/learning to go, but most courses no longer need human intervention to create, understand and validate them

@dewygolf.bsky.social continues to build out the v1 maps. Looking at this one honking course in Florida I'm excited by the results and the future of golf maps. All that hard work is starting to show up and cannot wait for what's next.

If you’re in the Boulder area this evening, there’s boulderOS @ 7. Also fun is that it’s on Apple’s Community Events page. More information: boulderOS.com

Got my first (only) 1 star review because they don't want to pay for an app. Think this is the correct way to respond...

All set up for the Indie Dev Fair @ @communitykit.social Come check out @dewygolf.bsky.social and grab some early swag.

Didn’t get a #wwdc ticket, might as well try my luck at The Masters ⛳️

Spending this weekend on my @communitykit.social Indie Dev Fair demo. So fun pulling together ~8 months of work on @dewygolf.bsky.social Showing a v2 sneak peek at the fair, plus prepping folks for the v1 TestFlight the week of June 15th. Sign up: dewygolf.com/#newsletter

After months without, I'm happy to have a new AVP for myself again.

"Machine Learning"

This morning, I had a meeting with my sister to discuss a new project she needed for a thesis/class work. (She’s a nurse; I'm not) I quickly used @heygenai.bsky.social's Live Avatar to create a mockup of an experience and test the idea. About 2 hours of work and up and running.

Wild seeing Brazil/Portuguese overtake US/English for one of my side projects. Localization matters because people being comfortable in the app they use matters.

Printing my v1 model for @dewygolf.bsky.social maps. Really jazzed to see the numbers improve and all the hard work (hopefully) pay off with clean results.

Generally speaking I'm not a fan of Facebook, Inc (Meta) but their engineering teams are a bunch of wizards. Recently found this collection of tools I've pulled into a CLI // Skill partnership for my iOS-testing toolset. github.com/facebook/idb My skill//new CLI: github.com/ioloro/iOS-T...

Very excited to participate in the Indie Fair at @communitykit.social . See y'all there!

Cont. adventures in annotation. Playing with "ISpy" (don't sue me), where each annotation has it's own frame (crop is user set) can filter on confidence level and then you're off checking "is/is not". Been pretty fun. A few standard of living enhancements like hide/unhide and zoom.

Up early further refining my CV/scorecard parsing model. Hot Chip's In Our Heads is an excellent playing partner for that task.

As I get deeper into maps, I keep learning new, cool things about how to represent relationships of items to one another. i.e. golf courses have (typically) 9 or 18 holes, each has a tee box, and green.

It might sound familiar from my @deepdishswift.com talk, but being part of or interacting with the community you intend to build apps or services for is likely the most significant advantage you could look for.

Starting to trim the grass and prepare for the @dewygolf.bsky.social launch. Sign up for the TestFlight coming next month. dewygolf.com

I keep checking my email to see if a second round of #WWDC invites have gone out. So far, nope. 🙃

I got into cocktails during COVID and ended up with a shelf full of bottles I didn't know what to do with. So I built an app for that. Today's the day! Spritz is available on the App Store. Bar inventory, recipe matching, and an AI mixologist. Cheers 🍸 #Cocktails apps.apple.com/us/app/spritz-...

Warming up the processors today. Continued active learning via semi supervised training. Excited to see the next results in a couple hours. #computervision #golf
