@dfgomes believe it or not the latest thing I made was a vocoder https://bjango.com/plugin/robotrocket/

@dfgomes eh I’m sure every job has annoyingly hard parts. Figured it out in the end 🤣

Doing quite a lot of C++ development lately. Was weirdly enjoying it until it came time to link Curl and OpenSSL for both Mac and windows. Now I want to burn the world down 🤣

@wyldphyre 😱

Safari users: “oh you use Firefox. Isn’t that majorly funded by Google to be the default? Ewww”

Safari devs looking at the $12B Google pays them each year:

@stroughtonsmith oh don’t get me wrong it’s a valid technique but in a modern game when spinning drives are almost dead?

@stroughtonsmith this smells like BS to me. “I have duplicate files because it’s faster that way!” 🤔

@mikaelacaron @caseyliss oh. But does that bring back the everything opens in a kinda tab which I can right click to pin? That’s the workflow I got used to even if it was weird. Either way will try that today. Thanks!

@mikaelacaron @caseyliss wait. There’s a setting? Or do you mean go back to Xcode 16?

"The idea that Apple is so committed to its users' privacy that it will exit a major market rather than expose users to surveillance risks is an obvious lie – just ask China." https://pluralistic.net/2025/09/26/empty-threats/#500-million-affluent-consumers

@caseyliss I just got used to the previous ones then they done gone changed them again 😭

@petehare it’s “No Kings”. Not “No King” 🙃

This is still a bug in macOS 26.0.1. @petehare can you work your magic? It's pretty annoying. (it affects every app that uses the system colour sampler (NSColorSampler), even all of Apples own apps like Preview, etc). See the image below where the zoomed in preview shows it's going to select the dark purple, but instead it sample higher and to the left. 100% repeatable.

I built a vocoder audio plugin with @rustyshelf! Say hello to Robot Rocket. https://bjango.com/plugin/robotrocket/

@jerrod @bjango glad you enjoyed it. I have to admit when I saw @marcedwards had that joke in his slides I didn’t think it would land as well as it did. He killed it 🤣

Shipped something a little different...it's called Robot Rocket and it's a vocoder plugin. It was a blast to work on.

Blog post here with some more details: https://rustyshelf.org/2025/09/29/robot-rocket/

Hello, this is Robot Rocket. It vocodes and you can not stop it. https://bjango.com/plugin/robotrocket/

Server Side Swift people am I reading the docs right? If I want to build a version that runs on Linux I can only do that on Linux machine or VM?! Isn’t Linux the main platform people are going to run this on? And isn’t macOS where you want them to make it?

@bed @decryption as far as I know there's no way to give people both. Once you add the new icon format, it's everywhere.

@joshgelfand @bjango to be clear they don't let me work on Snowflake, I can't even see the code for it. So I have nothing to add to this conversation. Just wanted you to know I wasn't ignoring you 🤣
