I needed a more modern settings window for an upcoming #macOS app. I couldn't find an all in one package, so I made one!
This is a localized settings window replacement for SwiftUI, which matches the post Ventura Settings App.

Paul HudsonSeriously, Apple folks: you have access to a huge amount of internal source code. Please try searching for things like "extension CGSize", "extension CGRect", or other common types, because if *you're* extending them there's a good chance we're extending them too. You own them, so adding Equatable or whatever isn't a big deal for you, but it's going to become a huge deal for us in the near future.
Tom MulgrewI've started working on a little tool for creating retro games.
It consists of a C-like language with automatic garbage collection, and a runtime with a 320x240 color indexed display.
Can be run from cmd line, or as a vscode extension, which also gives you symbolic debugging.
The whole thing is written in C++ and SDL2, so should (eventually) be able to export to a bunch of platforms including Web Assembly.

Ricky MondelloiOS has an entire facility for third-party credential managers to plug into to be a data provider for passkeys.
Some third-party credential managers have instead decided to overwrite the JavaScript API in web browsers for passkeys and security keys, making it difficult for users to use the OS functionality, causing user experience havoc.
I’ve made my thoughts on this reckless behavior clear to them and will do what I can to fix this situation up. https://macaw.social/@april/111121055176419392

Can’t get iOS 17 and 1Password to stop fighting, seemingly can’t use 1Password only for passwords and iOS only for passkeys. Downright wild how passkeys went from a promising replacement for passwords to an awkward mess that confuses even security professionals.
It’s pretty wild to use a web extension to overwrite browser built-in security-related API, like the WebAuthn API, when a browser and OS distributor has gone out of their way to build an entire API surface for you to plug into.
While this growing pain is figured out, please remember that passkeys are a password replacement, and most people aren't juggling two credential managers around.
Either way, I’ve heard the feedback, but there are others who should hear it, too. :)
