A big thank you to all Apple engineers for an amazing #WWDC23. Not only for creating great new hardware, frameworks, APIs and videos, but also for spending so much time with us devs during this week in Slack Q&As and labs. So so helpful!
It continues to blow my mind how high the success rate of applying for labs is, given that all developers can apply, while during past in-person WWDCs many labs felt overcrowded, even though they were only accessible to the few thousand devs with a WWDC ticket.

I wonder if this top strap is an optional accessory or if it was part of an earlier design?

Last year I missed the deadline to apply for Tuesday’s labs (which is today at 6pm). This year I applied for 4 labs. Maybe overcompensating a little bit.

Loved Succession and loved the ending. But one thing that's been bugging me this season: the siblings agreed to buy Pierce for $10B and then it was never mentioned again. Or did I miss something?

The Mastodon instance I am on might be shutting down. I am debating between moving to mastodon.social and iosdev.space. The way Mastodon works there are a number of advantages to being on the mega instance that most others are on. But are there significant downsides too?

In the time that App Store Connect takes to load the page telling me how much money Apple paid me last month, Midjourney can paint me 4 photorealistic images. And it takes just as long to get the “there is no data available for this month” page. How can that take 30+ seconds to figure out?
