Anyone in the Portland, OR area want to Test Flight my next-gen "PDX Transit" app for iOS and watchOS?
It's completely re-written from the ground up using 100% SwiftUI and other technologies like Swift Concurrency, Combine, CloudKit-backed Core Data, etc. It is snappy as heck too!
Let me know by sending me your email in a DM for a TF invite.

It’s a shame that we probably won’t play Arkadia again soon enough for me to remember any lessons learned.

The friend teaching us to play warned us not to put off scoring, that we should expect a slow start that would suddenly accelerate to the end. So, of course, I put off scoring and was surprised when the end came upon us all of a sudden. 🤣

It was also hard to remember that while you must place your people, the key to scoring is surrounding buildings.

This is fascinating! The Braille Institute has developed a font - free to download - that's designed to be clearer for readers with lower vision.

An example of one of the aspects of low legibility that they tackled attached.

It's named Atkinson Hyperlegible. Atkinson was the Institute's founder - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Robert_Atkinson

The correct way to address a badger is "Your Badgesty”.

Our squirrel has figured out how to reach all three front bird feeders. Sadly, I wasn't fast enough to catch the moment it successfully tackled the owl. But it did!

One's very heavy and the other's a little lighter
