This is so clever and delightful! Instabuy!

And if you're thinking "what's iPulse?"...

It's an app that I've been working on since 2002. It's old enough to drink and lots of folks love it.

iPulse • Keep an eye on your devices

Using its concise and appealing user interface, iPulse graphically displays the inner workings of macOS on you desktop, menu bar or Dock. Also available for iOS.

Imagine being a coder but thinking there's no artistry to writing code. What an empty existence
@siracusa Re: ATP Dev. I recently wrote a blog post how we make Swift Errors for our Mac app. Focussing on both the end user and the developer experience. https://nonstrict.eu/blog/2026/the-four-audiences-of-swift-errors/
The Four Audiences of Swift Errors | Nonstrict

Every Swift error you throw serves four audiences at once: users, your catch blocks, the debugger, and Sentry. We have a pattern to deal with all of them.

New US Congress bill proposal requires all operating system providers to verify ages

We've covered here before on individual US states setting up their own age verification laws, and now a new US Congress bill has been proposed for it.

Did you know that you can export your saved data (including passkeys!) from Apple Passwords to another app on your iPhone or iPad? Top level of the app, ... menu, “Export Data to Another App”.

And you can export your saved data (including passkeys) from 1Password to another app on your iPhone or iPad, too! Top level of the app, user avatar, Settings, Advanced, Start Export.

Folks from 1Password, Dashlane, Bitwarden, NordPass, Apple, and Google collaborated on a data interoperability standard (CXF in FIDO Alliance) to make this possible. Building on top of that, iOS has first-class support for migrating that standardized data between apps.

Not all apps will support all of the data that’s possible to be transferred, but this really might help you switch from one app to another. There’s no need for a desktop computer and a CSV file, and those CSV files never supported migrating passkeys. The OS support for this exists on Mac, but third-party apps have been slower to adopt it.

Everything I’ve said here is public information and available to use on your i{Phone,Pad}OS 26 devices today.

Sometimes i really love #SwiftUI 🫶🏽
It makes UI stuff funnier than ever.

Text is obviously placeholder and other stuff also not finished. But i like it. (It’s in woofly where you can sort of unlock such cards by using different parts of the app)

Everything here is drawn in SwiftUI.
