    RE: https://oldbytes.space/@blakespot/117185128203574799 I have a handful of apps that I haven&amp;#39;t compiled in a decade that will stop being usable with this change. I know that these apps are still being used – heck, *I&amp;#39;m* still using a few of them. And yet I might never be able to find the time to update them all.

    Xcode 27 RC is likely to come out soon. I&amp;#39;m surprised that Device Hub has so many quirks/missing features. * Can&amp;#39;t trigger a memory warning. * Can&amp;#39;t drag a file onto the simulator to AirDrop to the sim * Showing the app container in the Finder shows a weird pseudo location that if you try to add/remove files, some async process conflicts with all changes. Plus the rename has caused existing tools that expect the old Simulator to be all kinds of broken.

    Me as a user: iPhone Duo looks great! Me as a consumer: this is gonna hurt. Me as a developer who expects the status bar, navigation bar and utility bar to be in specific locations: eep.

    Thanks @chris and Florian for all the videos! Looking forward to anything @chris does next. And have fun outside the digital world, Florian (wherever that is). (I know it&amp;#39;s been two weeks since this announcement but I&amp;#39;ve been busy. Comment by @gregheo reminded me.) https://talk.objc.io/episodes/S01E500-the-end-of-swift-talk

    I&amp;#39;m loving Designed in California – particularly, the current &amp;quot;Apple&amp;#39;s Mac OS Crisis&amp;quot; series. I&amp;#39;m endlessly fascinated by this era of Apple. The failure of Pink, Taligent, Copland, BeOS, and more. Eventually Apple + NeXT succeeded but this required NeXT to be consumer focussed, Apple to be less dysfunctional and Jobs to overcome his &amp;quot;mercurial&amp;quot; nature and reluctance to rejoin his former company. It could easily have gone so many other...

    I&amp;#39;m sure it will go away over time but right now, when I use the iPhone Duo simulator, I get freaked out when I need to go &amp;quot;Back&amp;quot; because my app&amp;#39;s back button isn&amp;#39;t where I expect it to be. Such a simple thing but I&amp;#39;ve been going to the top left corner for so long.

    I wish I could periodically tell people my context is full and I need to take a couple minutes to auto-compact.
