amen zwa, esq.“I need to discuss science vs. engineering. Put glibly:
In #science if you know what you are doing you should not be doing it.
In #engineering if you do not know what you are doing you should not be doing it."

I'm starting to plan my fall tour. I've just said yes to a "new to me" conference outside of the world of iOS and Swift. My schedule is starting to fill up - I'm still hoping to be invited back to some of my favorites.
I've just revised my try!Swift talk on AsyncSequence. There's a lot there. I always want a talk to go well but being invited back to this conference after ten years means a lot to me and I particularly want it to justify them bringing me such a long way. #tryswift
Flight and hotel booked for the week of WWDC.
I probably won't apply for a ticket - that week I host my own conference - meeting people like you for coffee at Philz.
Hope to see you there.

Relearning the lesson that the problem isn't always where you think it is - this time while learning to sketch buildings. Also, remembering early Zefrank, great advice, reliving WWDC when it had a playlist, Thurber and White ask "Is sex necessary", Manoush wonders why it seems everyone has ADHD, Maggie links to a border crossing cat, and Natalia has a new book on SwiftUI.
Paul HudsonWhat's it like attending WWDC in person? I'm glad you asked, because I have a video just for you: https://youtu.be/SneL19Jp1iE #WWDC26

James O’Brien on LBC makes me laugh. Talking about the weirdos and the “other word beginning with W that I can’t say on the radio.”
And then for people that didn’t get it he said he could use rhyming slang and call the. “Bankers”

On skating to where the puck will be and not to an average of where it's been.
