Cooking is a big part of my steez (I cook most days, most meals). While a lot of people tend to show off their own recipes, I love following other people’s #recipes. I think I’m going to make more of an effort to share what I’m cooking, if that’s your thing.

@rizzi Any chance you&#39;re willing to share how you did the YouTube support in the latest Reeder? I&#39;d like to add YouTube support to my app but am struggling to figure out a reliable solution.

@pointfreeco What is the upgrade path for The Point Free Way? Does it update automatically somehow?

Statistically, I spend more time in CI fixing failures due to upstream changes than mistakes in my code.

I’ve been building an app for the last year. It’s not the one I thought I was going to build, but I realized one day I’d gone so far, it’d be a waste not to see it through. It’s finally in a good enough state that I think I can share the beta with other folks so I can really learn where the rough edges are. Introducing LightWatch, a visual RSS watcher. It’s your feeds, but just the images and videos. https://getlightwatch.app

TIL If you take a screenshot in mobile safari, it gives you the option to screenshot the *entire* page. That&#39;s neat.

In honor of Deep Dish Swift and the first year I&#39;m participating with an app of my own, I&#39;ve made it easy for you to follow your pizza in LightWatch. There&#39;s now a lightly curated pizza themed feed to get you started. https://getlightwatch.app/for/pizza

Thinking about how Amazon used to just be a bookstore, for no reason in particular.

Ok, I’ve figured out a conference talk to give. Now I just need 43 minutes of stuff to say between the two jokes I came up with.

The most effective security training I’ve ever seen was a GitHub security engineer who quietly traveled between unlocked, unattended laptops at a company all-hands, posting the phrase “poopin” to the owner’s Twitter account. A whole company educated forever in 48 hours. Mythos sounds scary but imagine a sanctioned, corporate white hat phishing agent with a similarly benign payload. Everyone would stay on their does, *knowing* it was coming for them.

After listening to my elementary school aged children talk for approximately 3 minutes, I’m thinking that putting VC money into a urinalysis device called iCup is going to be a sure fire windfall.

@ObsidianUrbex I just discovered your account and your work is awesome. Any chance you&#39;d consider updating the RSS feed on your website with the same stuff you post here? I&#39;m building an app for following visual-focused RSS feeds (https://getlightwatch.app/) and while Mastodon RSS works fine, your dedicated RSS would be more ideal. However, it hasn&#39;t been updated in a couple of years and seems to only include one image per post, vs the multiple you share here.
