Building stuff
Doug GregorIf you work at the same place I do, today’s the last day for the 2:1 matching on charitable contributions with the maximum doubled. I usually do the annual donations to various groups in the fall, but to leverage this 2:1 match I’ve been leaving a comment with the donations to consider it part of the 2026-27 donation cycle.

“Who’s ever gonna get a chance to do 1500 pages on revolution again? With this much money, and this much muscle?” Man, Tony Gliroy is as good as it gets. From Michael Clayton to now where he’s going with the full culmination of Andor, he’s truly making some id the best mainstream media that it’s possible to do, and I’m as inspired by him navigating giant infrastructures like Disney to get these outputs as I am by the actual final results.

If you care about Codable and/or serialization in Swift in general, definitely check it out
The future of serialization & deserialization APIs
Hello Swift Community, I’m happy to announce that I've been hard at work planning a potential future for serialization & deserialization APIs in Swift. It's clear from community adoption and feedback that Codable has had a lot of success in the years since it was added to Swift 4, but that it doesn’t satisfy some important needs. One of the foremost of those needs is performance more in line with programming environments that compete with Swift. As such, the main goal for this effort is to unlo...
Been a really fun project to help bring to life 💚
