The US SCOTUS ruled today in favor of a woman who didn't want to serve LGBTQ+ people, saying she had a constitutional right to do so.

This is _bad_.

What's the matter? It's the same distance?

As always, if you find something behaves unexpectedly or there's functionality you'd really like on visionOS, please file feedback, especially this early! Including details about your use case helps prioritize the enhancement requests.

@lorihc Will do! Meant to get to that today but have to finish writing up a sample project for these ones. Thanks!

(I also may or may not have created a marketing page with some more details on the watchOS 10 changes in CardPointers 5: https://cardpointers.com/v5/watch/)

Out with the old, in with the new.

The watchOS 10 updates are finished (a few beta-bugs aside, filing a few more FBs tomorrow).

* Total redesign featuring vertical tab views with colorful screens and copious alpha layers

* New global app search like on iPhone

* Tons more!

"It’s not hard to discover why American roads are so deadly, particularly for pedestrians. There are too many cars and trucks that are too heavy and tall, driving too fast on streets that are too wide, with too many points of conflict."

Just got laid off. 😞

If anyone knows of any senior iOS positions that are open to remote, I’d appreciate knowing.

Thanks

Dear Americans

Not a single news outlet aired President Biden's event at the White House just now where he announced over $40 BILLION in investments to expand broadband across America.

When will President Biden get the coverage & credit he deserves? This is why our media fails all of us.

Thank you, President Biden!

.....fuck it, imma just ask. Where are my fellow black folks? #blackmastodon #blackfolk I'm learning a bunch on here but the only time I see a face that looks like mine is when I search the hashtags above. And it's the same 3 people in the results. #pointmetowardsthecookout

Six Flags Magic Mountain in California is building a massive canopy of solar panels over its 30-acre parking lot that will power all of the rides and offset 100% of the amusement park’s energy usage while providing shade to the cars parked beneath.

When completed, it will be California’s largest solar energy project & the world’s largest renewable energy site built by a for-profit organization.

Way to go, Six Flags!

Been following #visionOS pretty avidly, but if you’re working on an app or experience for this platform… @lindadong and I wanna know about it! 👀

Quicker than ever to see which card to use at checkout thanks to the watchOS 10 redesign.

Few things left to tweak, but totally digging the translucency and vertical paging with the tab views (bonus: now you can have a tab view with swipe actions, so useful!)

Working on the Watch app is such an awesome experience due to the constraints of the platform — really requires focus on the core functionality, but I also add the full app experience for power users with a few extra taps.

Instead of a submarine it's the Earth's biosphere, and we're all unwilling passengers. But the same arrogant, ignorant, foolhardy billionaires are driving. They think they can just decamp to Mars if things go badly. That is far less realistic than the submarine.
