Catching up from yesterday’s post from John Gruber about SwiftUI:

There’s something really wrong with SwiftUI. Amongst the apps I use, the best example is Apple Journal. Basic stuff that’s worked reliably for decades — some things that heretofore had worked forever — are dangerously broken.

Apple should’ve unified AppKit and UIKit years ago. SwiftUI could be purely a wrapper for the core framework, plus support for watchOS. Maybe too late to correct this now.

Sometimes you write a post and when you're editing it you realize you no longer support what you wrote. This is one of those times.

A lovely story by Mary H.K. Choi about her husband and wedding. “A green card wedding was the story I was selling…but it became clear I’d wanted to get married for all the typical risky reasons most of us do: love, understanding, hope.”

I can't say that "amount of that dog in them" has always factored into my evaluation of a tennis prospect, but it should, and with Mirra Andreeva, it was always the central factor. In civilian life, being well-adjusted as a good thing, but in tennis, its opposite can be a ki...

One of my favorite bits of most Apple events is picking out the little things that Apple doesn’t talk about in its keynotes. At WWDC 2026, however, a lot of those little details did get mentioned—but if you blinked, you might have missed them.…
