Wait, it's actually good for everyone that we have more RAM by default? Huh, not what I would have expected given how aggressive some people have been about 8GB being ideal for most people 😛

I lost my job today.
Any help would mean the world to me 🙏🏽

- First opened Xcode in 2012; Obj-c
- Swift since 2016
- SwiftUI since 2019
- Eye for detail
- Passionate about iOS development
- Computer Science degree (fwiw)
- I actually have to be remote & can’t relocate
- Timezone: Mountain Time (GMT-6)

I appreciate you all! 🩷

Side note, I'm on the job market if anyone is looking for a programming language/compiler/IDE engineer.
Difficult for a job ad to have a red flag in every sentence, but not impossible apparently.
@dimillian found it, nevermind!
