Me: Hey Glassdoor, I’m looking for a new job. GD: What kind of job are you looking for? Me: I’m an iOS developer, so one of those please. GD: Oh, iOS Developer! So, you’re a MOBILE developer? Me: Well, yes…specifically an iOS Developer. GD: Say no more, I’ve found a perfect job opening for you:

Rain in February in Minnesota has me concerned. 🌧️🤔

How un-American can you get? America does not have kings.

I know there’s many Vikings fans (and many football fans in general I guess) who’d love to see Aaron Rodgers sign with them for no other reason than “the memes”, but I’m hoping they avoid him like the plague.

My goodness, Xcode does not like (ie: work well with) VPN. Odd things like getting my physical iPhone to be recognized by Xcode, and getting some (but not all) WKWebViews to load pages in iOS Simulator where some issues I've seen so far. I'm using NordVPN btw.

I wonder if people pleased with headlines like this are mistaking "probationary employees" for "probation" in criminal law sense of the word. Like, are there people out there thinking these are all just convicted criminals being targeted? Spoiler alert: they aren't! apple.news/ArlFXfw6ZRu6...

I mean I think the obvious answer is that no, Americans have no idea what this means for their lives the "oh shit what have we done" turn we're all hoping for is simply not going to happen until the material ramifications become clear we are going to have to touch the stove

The world laughs at us 😞 Also, Apple…I’m disappointed. I expected this from Google, but I thought you were better.

Legacy media is sleepwalking us into fascism.

OpenAI, in my opinion, has always been on shaky ground, but I can say with certainty that I will actively avoid OpenAI if Musk has any part of it. This man is evil, and I will not take part in contributing to his gain of power and control. ground.news/article/elon...

Severance season 2 episode 4 🤯

Today's the day, the time is now. Starting the process of deleting my nearly 20 year old Facebook account and all other Meta accounts.

Tomorrow, I’m uninstalling these apps from my phone and deleting my accounts. Twitter was deleted a long time ago, when Musk acquired it. I’ve had a Facebook account for almost 20 years. Looking forward to this change. 😊

“I know nothing about Project 2025” - You know who 🙄

So many of these companies shamelessly used BIPOC, LQBTQ+, and disabled people for profit and “inspiration” ads and now are discarding all of us. I’m never going to forget.

Uff, gotta say my excitement and interest level for the Super Bowl this year is at an all time low.

I’m skilled in Swift, UIKit, and SwiftUI, and I’m searching for a job that leverages those abilities. It’s frustrating to see "iOS Developer" job postings that require React and JavaScript instead of all the native iOS stuff. Is my frustration unjustified?

Everything that Trump said and did today -- all of it -- was entirely predictable based on his campaign, character, and first term in office. If you're surprised, you were either misinformed or not informed enough. We deserve everything that's about to come our way. Buckle up.

Add this to the skyrocketing (no pun intended) number of reasons he disgusts me. 😡 youtu.be/-VfYjPzj1Xw

I’m seeking a new iOS developer role! 📱 I have 3.5 years of professional Swift experience. Based in the Twin Cities, but open to remote opportunities. Let’s connect! 🚀 #iOSDev #Swift #OpenToWork

After Elon took over Twitter, I deleted my account b/c for me it was just a microblogging tool with minimal interaction from others. Now, due to Facebook's policy changes allowing hate speech and no fact-checking, I want to delete my Meta accounts but struggle because of the communities I'm part of.

As someone who bought the Ghost Case 1.0 and ordered the free replacement as soon as it was available…I’m starting to feel like I’ll die before it even arrives in my hands let alone before it yellows. 😬

Not going to stir the pot by using a specific team, but hypothetically would the NFL do something if a certain team was so dominant that they were virtually guaranteed to win for many years and that caused interest and viewership to tank?

Huge shout out to this guy Ken for making a minimal Lighting to USB-C adapter attachment for AirPods Max. The best part about it is that I easily forget that it’s there. Highly recommend it to anyone with gen 1 AirPods Max. shop.kenp.io/products/41r...

Leftover Thanksgiving mashed potatoes, cheese, bacon, a bit of truffle salt in the waffle maker, topped with sour cream and chives.

Hot take: I don't think Minnesota gets as much snow as people think it does. - Source - I've lived in MN my whole life. * I've lived in south/east-central MN, so maybe different up north, especially by the Lake. * The snow probably sticks around longer than people think because of the cold temps.

While I love the recent Bluesky rally, I also want to remind everyone that Mastodon is the only properly decentralized, billionaire-proof and VC-free social media for now. I get that most people couldn't care less about protocols, but if you do, I recommend maintaining a presence there :)
