A little bit of everything, but mostly iOS
Man, the job market is rough. I’ve been keeping track on Notion and after 50 job applications I have:

37 Rejected
11 Ghosted
2 Interviewed (with both being rejections).

Layoffs suck, but what sucks more is seeing how your hard work up to this point means nothing.

I finally finished a freaking game. It ain’t much, but it’s mine. End of Shift is a 5-10 minute little slow paced game about doing your job.

Look, I understand that AI is making things cheaper and faster, but in no way is it making things better. There are so many false positives and issues with companies using it (Flock comes to mind).

We need to stop blindly using this tech for everything. It needs to be made right or not at all.

Man. When it rains it pours. Laid off last week and I’m putting my dog down today. I’m just not doing okay.

Didn’t make it through this round of layoffs at my company. If anyone has any leads on iOS developer roles I would love to connect!

I like to believe that somewhere out there in the YouTube codebase somewhere there are analytics capturing how quickly a user closes the premium modal. Because I immediately find the close button to that screen every time. Hate subscriptions
