The #wwdc #sotp code presos are a failure since the font sizes are tiny.

Lock Screen is the new emoji. Useless, but a ton of people will love it. #wwdc

Swift Charts looks promising. Maybe I’ll be able to strip out my charts code in my writing app. #wwdc

I hate regex. Just sayin. It’s a kludge in all languages that support it. Flame on! #regex

Happy National Churro Day

“Ever marry someone with your past.” #writing #throwawayline

“The gun. Don’t point it at me. It may cause you to feel guilt. It may be the first time. I doubt it. Do you take the chance?” #writing #throwawayline

What do you do when someone screams? Do you freeze? Run away in panic? Stand and fight? Rush to help? Your choice says a lot about your #character. #life #writing

You are your own Captain. Don’t sink your ship.

Self-assurance comes from facts, not belief. #life #success

The whiney people just ignore. The adamant ones are the ones you have to worry about. #life

Just because something is “advanced” doesn’t make it good.

No. Your tools won’t make you a better programmer, writer, etc. They can distract you or make a certain task easier, however. #life #success

Serious question: why all the focus on “sharing” in Apple stuff? Yes, sharing is good, but it assumes a plethora of friends and family who are likewise inclined, and interested in your stuff. #ios #mac #apple

Weird idea: a fully regex-based programming language. The closest I’ve come across is either Mouse or my own Mantis; not really regex, however. #programming

So how big a thing is VM on an iPad? How good is the context switch? #iPadOS

Regular expressions is what happens when a dunk cryptographer gets to program. #regex

If you’re not curious, you just don’t care. #life #failure

Playing with my new toy. Best writing feel vs price. Great for mind dumping notes with Kindle support. No distraction writing. But I’ll stick to #fountainpen and paper for long writings. This will save ink/paper. #writing @supernote

Never understimate someone’s stupidity, especially in mass quantities. It can kill you.

Be a good person. #life

I’m eating food. I’ll catch up on the Apple State of the Platform stuff later. #wwdc

I’ll wait a few days before downloading betas. #wwdc

Really a moist and light cake but probably not healthy (10 oz of butter and 14 whole eggs.). Next time, I’ll omit the crushed hazelnuts, and cut back on the eggs and butter and line the pans with parchment. #baking

OK. the hazelnut cake came out great, but it didn’t really survive coming out of the non-stick pan despite buttering and flouring. #baking
