Started reading: Masters of Doom by David Kushner πŸ“š

Starts off pretty quickly and interesting. Can’t wait to finish!


Feels so good finally adding a loose copy of issue #1 of my favorite comic series ever to my collection!

Well, I finally crossed the barrier of rewriting an AppKit app to use SwiftUI. Hoping to have the app rewritten and out in the next few weeks!


The one feature I’ve been using the most on my M4 iPad Pro is Night Shift to make it more like a Kindle. It makes it feel really weird to have this super bright and color-accurate screen, just to leave it warmer so it doesn’t kill my eyes during long reading sessions.

Finished reading: The Dude and the Zen Master by Jeff Bridges πŸ“š

What a great book/interview with some amazing quotes to remember and live by!


Finished reading: Rogue Saucer by John Vornholt πŸ“š

Not too bad of a TNG story with a unique concept about the Enterprise and its saucer section.


Amazing pick up of Imaginary Storefronts by Mateusz Urbanowicz today! Really love reading all the little details of the various shops he designed!


Stopped by Dicks Drive In today!


First meal for this Washington Trip! Really hit the spot after almost 2 hours of traffic!


Nice relaxing night building some fun F1 Lego mini sets before my day of traveling tomorrow!


New video out today! Covering some exploration of OS X Tiger’s Dashboard Widgets! youtu.be/8UuCWwek_…


Really great read from Miles Klee at Rolling Stone about the downfalls of AI chat services and mental health. Hoping that eventually all of this AI stuff settles down into something with more benefits than negatives. www.rollingstone.com/culture/c…


This upcoming week’s video covers one of my favorite OS X features, Dashboard!


Finished reading: Doctor Who and the Seeds of Doom by Philip Hinchcliffe πŸ“š


While it is amazing that the MacBook Airs are so amazing at almost anything you throw at them. But nothing burns that battery out faster than Xcode & SwiftUI Previews.


Nothing like spending the day trying to migrate a web application into a Docker container/image. Docker is so powerful and helpful. I wish more projects just started out using it from the start to save everyone a lot of headaches!


Spent the last two days building a little Mac App to keep track of basic contract customer information. The two things that really stood out were just how easy it was to enable CloudKit thanks to SwiftData. And the second was how effortless it was to build a simple iPhone/iPad version of the app as well. I still struggle with some aspects of SwiftUI, but being able to essentially flip a switch and get an almost instant iPhone/iPad app is still amazing.
