My team at Apple is looking for engineering managers! You'd lead a small team of compiler frontend engineers working on the Swift language and developer experience.

The position is in person, and available in:

London: https://jobs.apple.com/en-us/details/200627625-2114/swift-compiler-engineering-manager

Cupertino: https://jobs.apple.com/en-us/details/200628041-0836/swift-compiler-engineering-manager

#Playground is legit such a great addition as a macro

I love using it to just dump in random ideas I'm working on for things and test how they work without needing to build the whole project

I love the new #Playground API in Xcode.

I use a Preview in every UI file so having the same thing for models and APIs will be fantastic!

What if playgrounds, but on the command line… an idea for a "swift play" command from @chrismiles

I'm really proud to present my fully documented source code for Elite on the Commodore 64.

This is the original 1985 source, recently released by Ian Bell, with every single line of code explained.

It’s a thing of beauty. Enjoy!

Programmers fallacies about postcodes:
- A postcode covers a small geographic area
- A postcode is good enough to locate an end user for generating location suggestions
- A postcode will be in a single timezone
- A postcode only has a single state
- A postcode has no exclaves/enclaves

I would like you to meet 0872. Australia's largest postcode (I think), covers 3 states, has two cut outs (Warbuton and Alice Springs), and even still some mail outside of this area is routed via 0872

We heard ya — Apple Vision Pro labs are coming to NYC and Sydney starting November 6!
