@littlesnitch guys, since recently maps started spam me with requests to reach out random ip, both v4 and v6.

Currently I just cancel this requests manually. But is there a way to disallow an app to connect to any raw IPs, while keeping allow to connect / request for permission to connect to urls meanwhile?

Enabling streaming, you can see that the Foundation Models API is slow — I would say alarmingly slow — on M1 hardware. I'm not even sure what kind of optimization I might be able to do to speed this up, as it's seemingly purely on the token generation side 🤔

It's going to take more than a little care and attention before you start sprinkling this all over your apps, that's for sure. Good to know

Nope, my bad, they’ve updated them, but without any details but they’re MoE now. https://machinelearning.apple.com/research/apple-foundation-models-2025-updates
Updates to Apple’s On-Device and Server Foundation Language Models

With Apple Intelligence, we're integrating powerful generative AI right into the apps and experiences people use every day, all while…

Just want to highlight that today @ #WWDC2025 Apple actually released integration with 1 year old models. And even back then in 06.2024 they weren’t SoTa even close to@SotA.

Oh, I wish to they out one more, due to last time I’ve used it like a years ago the system was such a huge limitation for this great app to become really useful https://indieapps.space/@charty/113591285263502254

Oh, now it seems he’s bringing heavy artillery into action!

One thing wonders me, though: will he add “please” on the next turn? https://www.threads.net/@aaron.rupar/post/DI1MRN5M5vI

I feel these folks, but their hopes of that either their toot or their denying action will stop anyone of this competition for the next iPhone like thing is so naive as it is.

I mean it’s obvious that Apple is failing the race already and it will fail it completely if not to obtain the source of user data.

However, me personally will avoid to include spindumps in my next bug reports for sure. https://hachyderm.io/@cocoafrog/114355281286615868

Attached: 1 image Are you f* kidding me, Apple?! After a long time, I filed another bug report using Feedback Assistant because the bug was bad enough that it’s worth the effort of writing it all down. When uploading a sysdiagnose (or probably any other attachments) you get the usual privacy notice that there is likely a lot of private and other sensitive info in those log files. It’s not a great feeling but it is what it is with diagnostic data and I mostly trust the folks at Apple to treat it with respect and I trust the Logging system to redact the most serious bits. However, when filing a feedback today a noticed a new addition to the privacy notice: "By submitting, you […] agree that Apple may use your submission to [train] Apple Intelligence models and other machine learning models." WTF? No! I don’t want that. It’s extremely shitty behavior to a) even ask me this in this context where I entrust you with *my* sensitive data to help *you* fix your shit to b) hide it in the other privacy messaging stuff and to c) not give me any way to opt out except for not filing a bug report. Do you really need *more* reasons for developers not to file bug reports? Are the people who decided to do this really this ignorant about the image Apple‘s bug reporting process has in the community? How can you even think for a single second that this is an acceptable idea? So, WTF, Apple?!

I was looking for so long smth like this, nothing but a front end to my sleep health db data. Hope it works as well as it looks https://mastodonapp.uk/@C4M3R0N/114341460143199970

Attached: 4 images Inspired by an episode of #atpfm last year, would love feedback on my latest app, SleepTag. It imports your sleep data and lets you tag it with activities/information to help you better understand what affects your sleep. 100% #swiftui and a lot of Swift Charts! #iosdev #indiedev #apple #sleep #health #applewatch #swift https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/sleeptag-analyze-your-sleep/id6742378928

I want to blame swift 6.0 cursed concurrency model so hard for this, but I think that the real reason is that iOS as well as Android the platforms are just in its slow decay, no one ever rushing to publish apps on those, since it’s either been stolen (Android) or missed among myriads of the others useless apps in AppStore (iOS) with no hope to reliably promote it outside of it. https://mastodon.social/@ngate/114336595133588065
