PSA: After downloading #Xcode26, if you’re trying to download iOS Simulators and it’s stuck on “fetching download information,“ try navigating to Settings and download the simulators there instead! #WWDC25

Why yes, I am planning to mobile app my business. I can't wait to do it!

Can't believe it took this long for me to revoke Threads' notification permissions (after one too many "So and so posted for the first time in a while…" shameless growth hacks)

Today in Home app weirdness: Why is this popup system modal?! I can't think of anything else in iOS that works that way.

I really think the universe owes us a Pope Pizzaballa at this point 🙏

Don’t forget anvils

Going to be an unusual celebration in the newsroom.

There's nothing like a gnarly merge on a Friday morning! 😵‍💫

Having a great time at @deepdishswift.com so far! If you see me come say hi and learn about how I found myself at a pizza-themed conference as the only living human who doesn't like pizza 🫣

En route to Chicago for @deepdishswift.com 🥳

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

Someone decided to troll me

Everyone should read this, especially for the bits in the article that give us some insight into what these detention prisons used by ICE are like. And no one, no one, should be traveling to the US if they can avoid it. No one. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Ok but you have to understand. There was a black woman jedi on the teevee. They made an all woman ghostbusters. Someone at my job said “Latinx” bsky.app/profile/jame...

Maybe it would be easier to cover Washington. Baseball executives never accidentally add reporters to group texts.

Also, we've just removed the paywall for this.

With 23andMe filing for bankruptcy -- reach out to your family members who might have ordered these kits to get them to request deletion of their data. And if you signed-up yourself, you should absolutely do the same!

@strictlyincrementl.bsky.social Y’all wanna look around?!

How do you remove an account from one of your lists on Bluesky? It's under "Add to Lists." 🤦‍♂️ Can't wait for @phoenix.tapbots.com!

Folks who have attended @deepdishswift.com in the past: Are there generally people hanging out the night before and/or night following the conference? I'm trying to decide whether to arrive a little early or leave a little late, since I probably can't do both.

Someone spray painted a swastika on the side of a building near our town's high school. I don't care if it's a high school prank, Elon Musk fan art, or anything else - whoever does something like that can fuck right off, absolutely no apologies for language.

It's cool though, it's not like accurate weather forecasts are important for the FAA, Air Force, and Navy. https://www.theverge.com/news/622990/trump-doge-government-layoffs-doge-weather-forecasts-noaa I love that now we get to wake up every morning and watch the world burn. Thanks, America.

If there’s one thing I know about watchOS development, it’s that no matter the time of day, if your watch randomly asks you to trust your computer, you say yes.

My Bluesky timeline desperately needs a “mute reposts” option 😵‍💫

This starts with the British government, which is bad enough, but you know it ends with Elon Musk digging through everyone's private data.

But Trump told us today that Musk would tell him if there’s a conflict of interest and step aside in that case!
