I feel like at this point I have a pretty strong grasp of concurrency in swift 5 now, and I really like it. You have actors guard state, and you can setup streams to act like data highways between them. It’s so fast and it’s easier to reason about than most other paradigms.

The one little "cultural artifact" that I'm gonna miss the most after nuking my Twitter account is this simple exchange with @vvuk.bsky.social in April 2014 that was the literal starting point of the next decade of my career and led to WebXR as we know it today.

Hot. WebVR hackery works great with @Oculus DK1. Hoping to ship in Firefox Nightly (pref'd off) in next few weeks!

Vlad:

along with getVRDevices(), getting device info, etc. infrastructure

Really interesting the new Mario party has a pro rules mode. Nintendo really embracing the competitive scene in Mario party isn’t something I had on my bingo card for 2024.

How do people not rage quit swift ui every time this error appears? ` The compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time; try breaking up the expression into distinct sub-expressions`

I see a lot of folks just RT posts with no additional comments. I am the only one a bit annoyed by a feed full of RTs? I follow you for your thoughts, not for the posts you’re resharing. What do YOU think about that post?
