MORE RELIABLE DEBUG SESSIONS!?!?!?! #WWDC26

Always good to see Holly Borla featured in Apple keynotes. She is a Swift GOAT and inspiration for everybody, but particularly for women and girls who might be wondering if they’ll be then next GOAT.

No sarcasm at all. Watching the #WWDC26 Developer State of the Union is inspiring me to work on new features, and maybe new apps, independently of whether AI will help or not. It’s great how much they’re focusing on presumed first-person programming.

45 minutes until the SOTU! State of the Undo. 🌈 #WWDC26

Has anybody seen John Ternus lately? #WWDC26

Congrats, @caseyliss@mastodon.social!

Reality: “Shit.” #WWDC26

Need a bathroom break. Give us a video game demo. #WWDC26

So THAT’S where the Pepsi logo went. #WWDC26

It’s pronounced HOLDEN HATE, you idiots. #WWDC26

Forever the optimist, I think that the next several years will be an era in which opinionated, competent developers are able to run circles around projects that are overly-invested in AI. Dip into AI, maybe even let it be your first mate, but never let it be the captain.

If there is some kind of award for knowing the most about D&D without ever actually playing it, I would like to apply.

As a suburban, atheist dad, the closest I get to religion is when it somehow rains right after I put down fresh grass seed.

I am so good at vibe-coding purpose-made web sites, I sort of wonder if there is a market for vibe-coded sites. It does take a little technical and aesthetic acumen to get it right.

A library with a librarian was the first large language model.

My take on AI is, essentially, everybody who’s against is too against it and everybody who’s for it is too for it.

People who are skeptical or worried about AI, including the Pope, sometimes come across as if there is something we can do about it. There are many technologies that can’t be undone. When fire was invented, the Pope might ask “let’s slow down adoption of fire” but it wouldn’t work because … fire.

Every time I go back to Twitter I realize that not only is it as unredeemable as ever, it’s somehow worse than the last time I checked it. What a shit show.

This ’80s-era coffee mug has never been more apt.

Always be fixing little things. Even if it takes you 7 years to get around to it. github.com/sparkle-p…

Just posted Black Ink 2.4.7 with bug fixes affecting clue visibility, UTF-8 preservation, and more. redsweater.com/blog/4274…

Whenever I unsubscribe from a mailing list, and the confirmation message says “We’ll miss you!”, it makes me extra glad to have parted ways with such a saccharine, insincere business.

“Online Only.” Really? Costco DOESN’T want to share the luxurious sheen of this CASKET in stores? 😂

Seeing as AI is being used in virtually every intellectual pursuit on earth, it stands to reason it’s being used to aid in things like electrification and fuel efficiency, among many others. Every extent to which AI helps reduce the widespread use of oil is a credit against its own energy use.

I got tired of both Claude and Codex failing to fix a bug that I thought would be easy for either of them, so I had to step in and do it myself. kisses biceps still got it …
