New comment by jakey_bakey in "Granola Notes from WWDC 2026"

I'm pretty awful at watching WWDC videos. Usually I bookmark about 70 and I only end up watching about three or four.

This is a little resource I created for myself to help decide which videos to spend time on, and to help me recall key points.

New comment by jakey_bakey in "IP Addresses Through 2025"

It always sends me to sleep when IP enthusiasts lament the lack of adoption for IPv6.

It's obvious to anyone that looks at the two formats that any kind of hacky workaround like NAT gateways will be preferable indefinitely to actually adopting the monstrosity that is IPv6.

Frankly, in the modern day, basically all of the solutions are good until you're talking about very strict performance requirements.

I don't know enough about Open Swift UI to answer. Are they gone? With Skip Tools, anything is possible, probably.

There's always rough edges, but I would say that shared core platform code can usually work pretty well and save time once you got through the overhead of setup.
