looks at the calendar. Probably too early to break out my summer playlist. 🎵
The latest @ivory Mac beta brings many improvements for VoiceOver users. The sidebar is now labeled, the notifications tab doesn't have all the elements as buttons, just the profile. It would also be nice if that could be combined into one element, but its not a huge deal. My main complaint with it at this point is that I can't navigate the table with my arrows.

#DocC is awesome. I’m surprised more people haven’t been talking about it since it was introduced at #WWDC21. I have tried similar systems in the past, like Doxygen, but they have been too much work and diverged too far from my workflow. DocC fits in perfectly with my style of coding and feels like almost no work. It’s even fun sometimes.

#WritingWonders Feb. 12. Are there any themes that pop up in your writing?
Several, although one of the most dominant in THE DRAGON'S BROOD CYCLE, and most especially in my #WIP (volume 3), is that of personal identity: who our heroes (or antagonists) are, who they have been, and who they want to become, with a focus on finding (and accepting) what/who they are.

@mektastic happy birthday, my friend! 🎈

Inspired by what @stroughtonsmith did with Broadcasts, I've posted the language localization files of Pedometer++ to GitHub. While I'm not opposed to paying a translation service for the strings, what I find is that in practice since the translators aren't users they very often miss nuance or use the wrong contextual phrase.

I'd love it if I could find some active users of Pedometer++ who would be willing to help improve their language's support.

GitHub - UnderscoreDavidSmith/PedometerPlusPlusLocalization: This is a public repository of languages strings for Pedometer++. It is my hope that I can get better translations by working with *actual* users of the app.

#WritingWonders Feb. 9. Is your antag an inside person or an outdoors person?
The primary antagonist of THE DRAGON'S BROOD CYCLE, the sorceress Marianne of Seven Skies, can control plantlike to horrifying effect, so she's definitely an outdoors person. 😱
Here she is, as illustrated by Leanne Hannah.
