Creating designs is so much harder than coding. I can copy code with one click, but if I like a design, I have to start from scratch. Not to mention, if I have nothing to go off, I have to come up with something on my own!

Epoch has grown to ~33,000 lines of Swift code. Feels big, but is it?

SwiftUI lazy containers start to hitch when they become larger and the scroll position is closer to the end. I have no idea why, and it really annoys me.

Spent half an hour battling 'Invalid Intent' during Xcode archive validation, only to learn you can't suffix an intent with 'shortcut.'

I've spent way too much time trying to make the shortcut open faster, but I got it, at least for these three

TIL Swift has `left` and `right` as keywords. I accidentally typed left instead of let and noticed keyword highlighting. It turns out they are context-sensitive, so you can use them almost anywhere. However, in a `precedencegroup`, they are used to determine how the operator should group operations

Most iPads suffer from touch sensitivity issues, leading to behavior similar to cheap touchscreens from the early days. Try it yourself: Place the iPad on a table, avoid touching the sides or back, and don’t use a charger. In landscape mode, the home gesture fails about 1 in 4 times.

Bought an iPad Air 11" M2 and it did not register home gesture when not touching the sides. Replaced it with another unit and it has the same exact problem. This is either really common or I'm super unlucky.

According to the internet, I have depression, social anxiety, unprocessed trauma, an inability to move forward, ADHD, difficulty creating connections with people, and impostor syndrome, all before the age of 22. What a speedrun.

I bought an iPad Air, and it seems to have a grounding issue. The home gesture works only about 10% of the time at certain angles, but the moment I touch the edges, it works perfectly.
