Your customers will never care what programming language you used.

It appears that the WordPress for iOS beta text editor has some character encoding issues. Other than that, I like it.

I try to think of everything that I do as practice.

The thunderstorm I drove through this evening was the worst I’ve ever driven through.

The latest update to iTunes has seemingly brought better performance for Apple Music. Context.

Summer heat is in full swing. The ground gives off radiant heat.

I rewrote some of my app’s UI last night using Swift rather than Storyboards. While it takes me longer (at least currently) to build Views this way – it does seem to be the better way of going about it.

Published Build 11 of my iOS app to TestFlight this morning. Some great improvements in this build. Now to fly the UAV a little.

You never get to “start over”. You only get to try again. There is a big difference.

I found some honeybees downtown. Now to trace their flightpath to the hive.

On Wednesday night I watched both Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. I hadn’t seen them in a while. They hold up rather well considering the amount of CG in them. Andy Serkis as Caesar is amazing but Toby Kebbell as Koba in Dawn is equally so. I’m looking forward to the next installment.

Webmentions are working on this post. I haven’t changed anything. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  My only guess is that WordPress’ trackback feature is working between WordPress installs. See also. And this too.

Since Manton marked the anniversary of the iPhone so shall I. Here is the post I wrote last year with a few photos of the iPhone launch. John Gruber makes an appearance. Coincidentally I’m building my first iPhone app this year. But more on that later.

After reading and listening to so many favorable reviews I’m installing the iOS 11 public beta on my iPad.

After a few weeks of using Apple Music daily I’m nearly ready to write a short review. But I can say that Apple Music loads far slower than Spotify.

Peter De Vries wrote “Write drunk. Edit sober.” I feel the same about most ideas. Speed through version 1 as fast as you possibly can getting all of your ideas onto the “canvas”. Then slow down, remove anything unneeded, and refine version 2. Version 2 should be what you ship.

Programming isn’t very difficult. However, frameworks, dependencies, device hardware and software fragmentation, and distribution are all very difficult.

One simple way to jazz up your digital calendar is to throw an emoji or two into the event titles. 🕺
