I am a freelance iOS and Mac developer living in Muncie, IN. Currently posing as an iOS developer working in the AR/VR space. Former clients have included Match.com, American Airlines, and Sam's Club.

In my spare time I tinker on an EV conversion project, 3D printing, playing Destiny 2 (as redromelogic) with the Disco Technical clan, keeping our almost 100-year-old house from falling apart, and a pandemic-induced obsession with tropical escapism.

WiFi in the workshop! PoE is pretty slick. CAT6e is no joke. On that note, anyone need a couple hundred feet of cable? I may have waaay over-estimated the distance from the mechanical room in my basement to the detached garage.

Jacob Flickinger was killed when the World Central Kitchen convoy was attacked while bringing food to starving people in #Gaza. He has a partner and infant child here in #Canada. They need your support.

Does anybody have any tips for generating a concave CollisionComponent in RealityKit?

I have some fairly simple geometry I'm loading from a usdz which I'd like to add a nicer fitting CollisionComponent to for accurate raycasting, but the closest thing is ShapeResource.generateConvex, which doesn't deal with holes.

She had quoted a Bene Gesserit proverb to him: “When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movement becomes headlong—faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thought of obstacles and forget that a precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it’s too late.”

Looks like Xcode previews can't handle spaces and/or apostrophes in a directory name 😞

Heisenberg, Schrodinger and Ohm are in a car.

They get pulled over. Heisenberg is driving and the cop asks him "Do you know how fast you were going?"
"No, but I know exactly where I am" Heisenberg replies.
The cop says "You were doing 55 in a 35."
Heisenberg throws up his hands and shouts "Great! Now I'm lost!"
The cop thinks this is suspicious and orders him to pop open the trunk. He checks it out and says "Do you know you have a dead cat back here?"
"We do now, asshole!" shouts Schrodinger.
The cop moves to arrest them. Ohm resists.
