    One of the icons I was most proud of coming up with - disable auto correction.

    After 9 years, today was my last day at Apple. It's been an incredible journey. 5 of those years I spent at Xcode and it's changed my life. I made a little video with some of my favorite features and things I helped with! So long, and thanks for all the Swift!

    Little reminder for WWDC. Be kind with your criticisms. There’s a human behind everything you see.

    I hereby raise a challenge to any 3D artist to correctly recreate the app store icon based on the Instruments icon mesh - and show a 360 rotation of it. It's surprising, and as you can see, not sticks. I can't share the source, but I can reward the winner with a like and retweet.

    This is about the route that girl took on the intro video. She must be new at Apple Park - I probably took similar routes in my first week here.

    In Xcode 14, if you select a block of text and type {, it embeds the block in a closure and puts the cursor in the beginning of the closure so you can define it. Works great for SwiftUI!.

    I always forget you can ⌘ click anything in an unfocused window to interact with it without switching your active window focus.
