Best line with @gruber tonight!!

@siracusa’s T-Shirt efforts paid off!!

I don’t think I’ve said how intriguing I find SwiftData.

Everyone I’ve worked with over the years had *scars* from CoreData, so when I started my developer journey I just avoided it. Don’t need to tell me twice. My apps have modest data needs so I use PropertyListEncoder.

I'm merely pointing out that Oregonians and Californians know *exactly* how folks on the eastern coast of Canada and U.S. are feeling (and breathing) right now. I say this to make the following point:

Trust us when we say that these massive fires will keep happening unless we get serious about addressing climate change.

It may seem unfathomable that such disruptive fires could become recurring events, but trust us: they can and will.

Demand climate guardianship from your elected leaders. Now.
