America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.
Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.
Best scene from Independence Day times four

Here's a bonus screenshot of what my original app looked like from 2012, oh the nostalgia!
The client should run on macOS 11 and greater, stop in and say hi at my hotline server: hotline dot dubs dot la!
I'll probably make a legit page for this or GitHub or whatnot at some point but for now here's a direct link to the client!
dubs.la/decline/decl...
But it does automatically keep a log of your chats and preload your chat window with old chats on login which is something I haven't seen on other clients which is pretty fancy! Looking into adding some more unique features as well!
It's definitely a work of progress, it only connects to one server of a time, it doesn't have Files, Private Message or Threaded News support...
Uhhh so I wasn't happy with the current modern Hotline Client options so I accidentally created a modern version of my 3rd party Hotline Client from 2012... decline!
A 20-year retrospective on reverse-engineering an Apple bug and a very desperate plea for help.
About my trials with the SystemUIServer, reverse-engineering, and how I lost my job at Apple due to my disability and why I kindly request your help. paradisefacade.com/blog/2025/5/...
It’s come to me desperately asking for help via a GoFundMe. I have no money for health insurance, rent, or medication. I’m screwed as of June 1st without help. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. gofund.me/5dfd5a7b
I'm proud to announce that my first extension for @raycast.com has been published!
Daily Sites - Site Launcher lets you compile a list of websites that you visit daily, organize them by categories and quickly open them in your default web browser!

So I've had a fun time, and also not so fun time, updating the functionality of my website but it was well worth it!

I wanted to show off something I'm proud of here. In the next update, I have a brand new shot chart feature.
When you add attempts, I use some good ol' math to ✨ automatically✨track shot types as either a 3 pointer, lay up, mid range shot, etc.
The workflow of the command is as follows:
1. yt-dlp downloads a video using a Youtube URL
2. ffmpeg creates a clip from that video
3. ffmpeg changes aspect ratio of the clip to 1080x1920, centers video and adds letterboxing in the form of blurred versions of current video frame.
Here's a preview of my first attempt at making a Raycast Command... the very verbose "Vertical Video Clip From Youtube URL In Clipboard". 😅
I like sharing YouTube video clips on my Instagram stories, and I think they look nicer when formatted for a vertical screen

meanwhile, #signal has made an important update of their mobile app:
Lumon Terminal Pro on Apple's website
Whoa, check it out! The Lumon Terminal just popped up on the Apple website in the Mac section. How cool is that?!
Not sure when to use layoutPriority? Here’s an example: In a space-limited HStack with two Text, applying minimumScaleFactor to the second text won’t work as expected—Text 1 will simply be truncated. Giving Text 1 higher priority forces the second text to scale down.

This is your yearly spring cleaning reminder to head on over to Xcode → Settings → Components and remove all of those OS runtimes that you're no longer using!
I just freed ~100GB from my machine by cleaning these up 🧹
Run this from the terminal, and your iOS simulator will get a “clean” status bar (ideal for taking screenshots): xcrun simctl status_bar booted override --time 09:41 --batteryState charged --batteryLevel 100 --cellularBars 4
Did you know?
You can use this command to clean up the iOS status bar before taking screenshots:
xcrun simctl status_bar booted override --time 09:41 --batteryState charged --batteryLevel 100 --cellularBars 4
Once done, reset like this:
xcrun simctl status_bar booted clear

Now when I see goats all I hear is the Severance theme

In Godot when you add a button or a label they are empty. I this confusing, so I added some default text to all the controls I could (event Text mesh resources):
A screenshot of an Xcode development environment on macOS, showing Swift code for a PlanetView struct using SwiftUI. A floating tooltip from Xcode highlights a focus on Planet.swift, specifically lines 25-33, and PlanetView.swift. A chat window in the foreground suggests adding ‘Earth’ to an array of planets. The macOS interface has a soft gradient background with a translucent effect on the open windows.

Have you learned about The Swift 6 Synchronization Framework?
It introduces some new low-level primitives, Mutex and Atomics. I tested their performance against Actors and the classic OSLock, when building a simple key-value cache.
TIL You can actually use the iOS simulator hardware buttons! 🤯
Screenshot of Raycast settings showing how to activate the hyper key feature
I just discovered that @raycast.com now has its own #hyperkey feature. So you don't need any other tool for that anymore. To enable the hyper key got to raycast settings > advanced > hyper key #dev #macos #tools #iosdev
