Honestly shocked. Apple quietly posted a playlist of all the WWDC group labs on YouTube. I found it by wandering into the Apple Developer Forums for the first time. I had been worried about how to grab and keep all that content myself. Turns out I do not have to.

@daveverwer Thanks so much for a long, really interesting and useful newsletter! It was a must read and something I looked forward to every Friday.

For around 10 years I've been playing around trying to get GraphViz built for iOS. Admittingly I've not spent huge amounts of time on it but have never quite got it working properly. Have also tried over the last couple of years on and off with various LLMs to see how they would fare also without success.

Had another go this today with Claude Code - and got it working quite nicely! Took a few iterations to get things built properly but have a nice build script and understandable instructions.

did you know that SSH has a little-known secret menu?

i wrote a post about this on cohost a while back, but since that site shut down i'm posting it here too

‘We need a new internet’ is being shouted from the rooftops. ‘That’s not possible!’ Everyone yells back. ‘Look I’ve built one!’ I shout into the crowd.

*crickets*

We know that nearly all successes are discounted and ignored before they become mainstream, I’ve personally lived it many times before. I’m actually going to pull this off, so remember how no one will ever believe you. No one ever does.

Got one of those little Polono P31s thermal label printers from shown on TikTok - actually a neat little gadget, only thing I'm not a fan of the Labelnise app - no idea what/if its sending out. So with the assistance of Claude, knocked up a small Python CLI to print text, images, qr and barcodes to it over BLE.
