im a fan of the new google maps icon design as of 12 march

when someone said C/C++ had fandom vibes, i kinda agreed

“in javascript, functions are values.”

Interop between XCTest and Swift Testing? In the economy? It's more likely than you think.

Legitimately, I'm really excited for this. This'll enable much more consistent set of tooling that can easily be used in Swift Testing and in XCTest. It'll also make migrating from XCTest to Swift Testing […]

New in Claude Code: Remote Control.

Kick off a task in your terminal and pick it up from your phone while you take a walk or join a meeting.

Claude keeps running on your machine, and you can control the session from the Claude app or http://claude.ai/code

the tutorials explaining editMode in environment variables have been so confusing. i finally got it earlier

i like the css naming convention of naming your classes as a description of what your classes do

TIL, comma operator in c++

i see bluesky has added the “whats happening” tab bar at the top

i gotta remind myself to read up on telegram’s latest posts. i figured that liquid glass redesign was kinda a huge overhaul

iOS 26 has this feature in the photos app where, if the controls appear or are on screen, the actual photo gets minimised.

it is unlike the previous iOS where the picture stays the same scale when the controls are on screen.

is there a way to disable that

Uh ohhhhh new Swift package alert. These are all things I tend to copy into every new project, so I figured it would just be easier to packagamatize them. https://github.com/samhenrigold/SwiftUIHelpers

Hot-Cold Finder Proximity, Feedback, and Real-Time Sessions in iOS 26

Hot-Cold Finder is live.

A short write-up on building a proximity-based app on iOS 26 using Nearby Interaction, and what it taught me about feedback, clarity, and restraint in UI.

What's new in Swift: December 2025 Edition Welcome to the latest digest of news from the Swift project.

Happy New Year, @swift.org crew! So happy to be back, I hope everyone enjoyed some time off.


If you're looking to catch up on Swift news, check out the December digest: www.swift.org/blog/whats-n... and let me know what you think!

Platforms will be pressured to label AI content, but detection will get harder…a better approach may be fingerprinting real media at capture (cryptographic signing). 👀

call me crazy but i kinda like iOS 26.

also, i notice a different keyboard appearing for certain apps. have yall experienced repeated typos with apple's default keyboard? some people have surfaced it before, attributing it to placement of touch targets

also i thought dismiss buttons are always presumed to be top right, i didnt know apple docs/conventions stated dismiss to be top left and edit buttons to be top right

i didnt know NavigationView was considered old. that explained why i kept seeing NavigationStack being used

i notice there was noise around twitter’s DM end to end encryption the other day 👀

authentication vs authorisation

how are we or where are we at with widgets? is anyone still using them?

ah so when someone posts their new post where you can tap on it on tiktok stories and like it from there, the like doesnt register. it only registers if you go into that person’s profile and like it or you go to your followings tab

so, new twitter huh? well, old twitter just reviving

also, the stutter when you scroll through the AI output when it is still in the middle of typing out the output is so distinct in AI apps

there is this, i would call practice(?), in AI apps where a down button is used to cater to the opposite of iOS’s tap nav bar to travel upwards in a scroll view. so you can now scroll straight up top and straight down bottom fast

I discovered that SwiftData requires a context refresh (fetch) to be triggered when deleting cascading data; otherwise, the cascading data will not be deleted. This is a bug.

ooh we have ghost posts in Threads now. basically stories but for tweeting
