I am saddened to learn that the legend Molly Holzschlag has passed. She taught me not only how to be a good webmaster, but also a good web advocate. Thank you. RIP Molly. #mollyholzschlag tucsonsentinel.com/local/repor

Still mad about this. I screamed and stopped because it was the logical thing to do to stay alive, but instead of giving me the “oh! sorry!” and waiting for me to carry on, she looked me in the eye and turned in front of me anyway. F*** You.

See me? The lady in the Tesla turning left from Central onto Hamilton in Campbell apparently couldn’t. Or she thought that as a Tesla, she had right of way when turning left on a green when no other vehicle would.

Yes motivated at least a few to build more for watchOS again! 😍

Thanks for having me #iOSDevUK!

When I talk to comic book artists I always emphasize the importance of clearly separating their planes of depth. This rule is only for comics and does not apply to Turkish photographer Sami Uçan.

I always wonder which songs will be dropped when I share playlists. This one lost 11 songs, but I can’t tell which ones because when I open the link, I see all 53.

I was not gay or trans but I had difficult parents. If you think these parents' "rights" laws only affect one group of children or another, you're so wrong. These laws attack the autonomy of all children. This is everybody's fight.
I respect the fact that right now it is LGBTQ+ kids who are in the most immediate danger. But they need support from all of us.

A few highlights of Series 6, 7 & 8: 6 was the first to have a Blood Oxygen sensor and app. 7 had a new screen size & shape and a full keyboard. 8 has crash detection (and with watchOS 10, that same technology can be leveraged for sport-related applications via a new CoreMotion API).

Thanks to the Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling this May, the EPA was forced to remove protections from most of America's wetlands this week.

Harlan Crow's firm lobbied for the rollback while he secretly plied Justice Thomas with gifts.

Anyone see a problem here?

Today I’m pleased to reveal the updates that I’ve been working on throughout the Summer in preparation for the release of iOS 17 in a few weeks time! 🚀

Most of my time has been spent on redesigning my Apple Watch apps for watchOS 10 but I’ve also adopted AppIntents in TV Launcher, added Interactive Widgets to TV Remote and have been refining other Widgets across supported apps.

More details and TestFlight links below… 🧵

UK folks: I’ve spent months creating a huge, free school resource aimed at helping kids aged ~11-19 get into cybersecurity. The site includes over 250 capture the flag-style challenges, plus a huge simulated hack story to finish. 100% free! hacktivate.io

some people who make programming easier

It's been a busy day, so I didn't get a chance to post this earlier, but Beta 8 of the OSes and Xcode are available now: developer.apple.com/news/relea

Clearly this is what the Shapiros and Rowlings of the world and their associated lampreys mean by “go woke, go broke”.

It ain't the flu, folks: flu test positivity is currently at 0.87% but COVID test positivity is currently at 13.4%. If you have symptoms of a respiratory infection, kindly test yourself for COVID and wear a mask at least until the symptoms resolve. Please and thank you.
