Hate #VAR. Iran had the goal in the net, 93rd minute, biggest moment of their footballing lives… given for an offside that's about the width of a gnat's wing. Get rid of it! #worldcup
That was all about Saka there. Great finish from Rashford as well. Delighted for them. #worldcup
This England v Croatia game is full of goals. It’s an entertaining watch (maybe more for the neutral than the fans of the respective nations) #worldcup
Today a brief recap on operators, including something new I didn't know: ternary operators. They look a bit nifty. #100DaysOfSwiftUI
There’s no need for these hydration breaks in a 22°C air-conditioned stadium. None whatsoever. #worldcup
I couldn’t be happier for Curaçao getting a goal here. They might get more yet if they’re brave! Amazing story. Go on lads! #worldcup
Well, Switzerland deserve everything they get here. 1-0 with twenty-odd shots on goal is always dangerous. Great header from the Qatari forward. #worldcup
日本で電動自動車は全然売れていない現象はなぜか。インフラの投資がたりないか、日本車会社が世界開発に遅れるかどちらか、恥ずかしいだろう。 #車 #産業
Today I remembered why I stopped programming — syntax errors. Like trying to write freely while someone nitpicks your grammar. Ugly, but mostly a solved problem with auto-complete and LLMs these days I would think. Following the logic is more important.

At some point, I want to make an iOS game and I'm grasping the nettle now.

Starting with "100 Days of Swift", so I feel confident I understand the code that hopefully Claude is going to hopefully mostly generate for me.

Day 1 finding: I didn't forget the basics of programming :)

Thanks and kudos to @twostraws for the free course.
