537: Worse Than All of Our Toilets
https://atp.fm/537

Hopes for WWDC’s announcements, exit interviews for the outgoing OSes, and how a Virginia man destroyed a car and computer in a single weekend.

Due to our incredible strategy (…a sponsor-timing mishap), this episode is members-only until Thursday, our usual release day.

Three nerds discussing tech, Apple, programming, and loosely related matters.

@atpfm @siracusa @marcoarment @caseyliss SwiftUI isn’t responsible for what you dislike about System Settings.

By default, SwiftUI uses the AppKit widgets. You have to *opt in* to different styles, which System Settings has done.

And you can quibble about those styles, for sure. But this is about the designers, not the technology.

Difference between the screenshots below:

.formStyle(.grouped)
.toggleStyle(.switch)

Otherwise it’s the same code in both cases.

@clarko Haha, there is FU for ~~the next episode~~ the episode after WWDC that covers this. However, the screenshots are SUPER helpful; thank you!

And while I have your attention, Symbolsaurus for iOS came in clutch for me earlier today. ✊🏻 (cc @gruber)

@caseyliss If we’re lucky we’ll have slightly fewer things to be annoyed by in macOS 14’s Settings app
