"diamond hand diamond hand diamond hand diamond hand diamond hand diamond hard"
...is a valid Bitcoin wallet seed phrase.

After years of watching other people write about software development, I decided that I wanted to give it a try too…

So I started a new blog!

To kick things off I wrote a (slightly belated) SwiftUI Wish List, but what I’m really looking forward to sharing is a new app I’m working on, and some […]

Went down the custom keyboard rabbit hole recently, and I’m quite happy with the result.

It was surprisingly hard to find aesthetic key caps, so I designed my own based on the Apple Extended Keyboard II. And I printed the case with the color-matched Platinum filament.

Foundation things for which docs are still in the works: NotificationCenter is now concurrency-friendly with a new "Messages" type. Lots of notifications in Foundation, UIKit, and AppKit are now available with this approach. Also in Foundation, there's a "#bundle" macro that's way nicer than […]

If anyone is curious about how buying a house in Japan went down […]

Who would have thought that the answer to "How does SwiftUI compare a view that contains a closure if closures aren't comparable in Swift?"

would be

"AttributeGraph determines the sequence of operations needed to compare a view, stores them as a bytecode program, and runs that program in a […]

I recently discovered that I can use an LLM to automate Ghidra and I asked it some questions about how SwiftUI internals.

🆕 blog! “Why are QR Codes with capital letters smaller than QR codes with lower-case letters?”

Take a look at these two QR codes. Scan them if you like, I promise there's nothing dodgy in them.

Left is upper-case HTTPS://EDENT.TEL/ and right is lower-case https://edent.tel/
