@Gte you had me at Auto Release Pool
macOS / iOS Developer, Freelancer for a very long time.
A day of two firsts. First time I ever shot less than 100 for 18 holes of golf (been playing about 3.5 years) and first time I lost a bee colony to a wasp attack. Definitely a good news / bad news day.
@stroughtonsmith I have it on a phone and the iPad and while I think it looks shiny all the glass detracts from the content
@nsspain Where can you get tickets. Website only show 2024 conference for me
macOS and iOS Contracting has definitely got a lot quieter since I was last on the market.
@twostraws That looks pretty quiet for Bath on a sunny day.
Today has been a long time coming for us at SmallCubed.
For a number of years we have been working on MailMaven (https://mailmaven.app): A new macOS email client that picks up where we left off after Apple killed Mail Plugins.
Today we are opening access to a wider audience than our small group of private beta testers.
I could say more but @joekissell is much better at words than me: https://www.takecontrolbooks.com/introducing-mailmaven-a-better-mac-email-app (Joe has been advising us for a long time on Maven.)
@mukmantheorigina I have only just started looking but have also realised all the ways I used to find work, Twitter, Conferences, Podcasts have either gone or been greatly diminished. So I am not sure if work is lacking or my channels to access it are the problem.
My current contract is coming to an end and I am looking for a new macOS / iOS contract opportunity. If anyone has any leads I would be very greatful. #FediHire
@danielpunkass @marczak @manton I started in 2007 with Late Nigjt Cocoa, then the The Mac Business Podcast and the MDN Show. Then started the current iDeveloper podcast in 2010. So have been podcasting longer but Core Int is the longest running I think.
@pilky So sorry to hear your medical news. Hope treatments help and that miracle shows up.
UK New York Jets fan club meet up before the London Game
The fact that UK airports charge you £6 just to drop someone off is pure greed. The fact that they then charge you £100 if you forget to pay the fee within 24 hours is simply immoral.
@jamesdempsey All good so far. And i have to say Xcode 16 is better under Sequoia than it is under Sonoma
Day 5 of COVID and still very positive. BORING
@heckj Landscape …. Agreed. And it changes lots of things when the focus is screen width not depth
