If you upgraded to Xcode 16.3, be warned: there appears to be a simulator bug that causes network access to fail regularly. It doesn't affect devices, just the simulator. You can work around it by using URLSession(configuration: .ephemeral) rather than URLSession.shared.

Trying to decide if this description of generative AI on the BBC could be any more wrong:

The title gives away the plot, but this is a very good, long, detailed summary about the entire Wordpress/WP Engine fiasco of the past week from every angle: https://joshcollinsworth.com/blog/fire-matt
If WordPress is to survive, Matt Mullenweg must be removed

I believe Matt Mullenweg's abuses of his unilateral, unchecked powers prove that it is in the best interest of the entire WordPress community that he be removed from power immediately.
