In my free time I like to build indie apps. Checkout Contadino and Distance Track!

After much procrastination, Contadino 1.3 is finally live in the App Store. This version adds Liquid Glass support and fixes a bunch of bugs.

This update sat in my brain (and my repo) far longer than it should have. Life and side projects continue their eternal battle for my time.

Every spring I get this uncontrollable urge to completely rethink my tech setup. Like, “What if I just… removed the iPad from my workflow?”

Is it seasonal? Is it WWDC? Is it just vibes? I don’t know. Help.

By default, the minimum length of Spacer is not zero. If you need the content in between to take up the full size, remember to set the Spacer's minLength to 0! 🚀

App Store Connect can generate promotional videos. I have no idea if it’s new or not but it’s nice for a low effort promotional reel/story.

Everyone should readjust their relationship with their work before it’s too late. This post is worth reading: https://whitep4nth3r.com/blog/work-is-meaningless/
Work is meaningless, and it almost killed my husband

There is a weirdly racist trend where people blame hypothetical minorities when systems fail because management cuts corners. We saw it with the Boeing door collapse and now with the Crowdstrike crash.

There is no mythical "DEI engineer" doing sloppy work at these companies.

It's down to leadership cutting corners to make a buck. A software update causing a crash that takes down all of your customers is due to inadequate testing. It's not because some anonymous minority wrote the code.
