How do you localise colours in your projects? As in, in mainland China red represents positive and green or black represents negative, while in Europe it's the opposite. Apple's Stocks app respects that (left is for UK region, right is for Chinese):

murmur got featured in the App Store and ~3M views later I made a fortune (that is, $26)

Not sure why Apple censors my in-app event, but now my fermentation app has some new flair to it. First time I see someone offended by the word "kraut", but here we are.

This year’s side quest is making my way through all Canadian provinces - 4/10 done already ✅ Last year’s was reverse-engineering my gym to give it the Apple Wallet support it should’ve had in the first place. Finally solving real-world problems: https://t.co/W03SW5Ot3N

One of those apps is Murmur: you pick a scenario, rehearse it with AI, and get feedback after. I gave a sneak peek at @omaikasei's Raycafe in Vancouver last year, but since then it got into Apple's "Best New Apps", and today is launching on PH: https://t.co/9CeGwOyBRx

Haven't tweeted (posted? x-ed?) in about 3 years, so here's the recap: moved to Canada, went indie after five years in medtech, and have been shipping very niche iOS apps since.

Removing “Hey” from “Hey, Siri” is the end of an era 🙈

This is beyond impressive and is actually a riff on Sicilian Granita, which uses egg whites for the lighter texture. I can easily see it working as a mid-course dish to switch attention between heavy courses.

While my feed is full of people having fun with ChatGPT I am busy cooking.

Swift Package Manager is a thing for half a decade, and yet there seems to be no way to cache its build products 🤔 We've migrated 40+ dependencies from Cocoapods and while the build time is on par I am very confused by it: maybe it's time to repackage everything as xcframeworks

Just thinking how sad it’d be to get the Apple Watch Ultra and just use it to reply to Slack messages 😅

My heart goes out to all the Ukrainians today — I’ve lived my entire life with the stain of Russian heritage and yet never felt as disgraced by it as I am now.

An unpopular opinion but I err on the Apple’s side when it comes to 30% commission, especially given that the majority of developers benefit from the 15% cut already. All other stores charge the same or even more, and yet give way less in return.

Maybe @Kilo_Loco has a solution?

Any folks out there using AWS DataStore in their mobile products? How do you handle local data being completely wiped out by any schema changes (judging by the docs, local migrations are not support)?

Took a week off and was surprised by the lack of bug reports on a version pushed last Friday... ... took a few seconds to realise that we're back to 2013 and the app is waiting for the App Store review for 8 days now.

Trying out fast-fermented saucisson sec recipe from @ModCuisine and seems to be hitting a wall: despite sticking to the recipe, drying in the fridge was quite inefficient so far, and I don't have a vacuum desiccator (only a vacuum chamber). Wonder if hot smoking might help?
