Husband. Father. Grandfather. iOS by day at WillowTree Apps. iOS and Mac by night as Hayseed.

Super boring. I like good coffee, beer, American Football, and NASCAR. Californian by birth, moved to Virginia in 2019.

Always questioning life and trying mightily to learn new things everyday. I also dig coding and blogging.

Hayseed is my indie venture I wish I could do full time.

This is extremely pathetic of Space Karen.

He’s saying an “important” person should be allowed to skirt the law because “important.”

No damage was done, Karen. The Justice system and the rule of law are intact because of the verdict. It did what it was supposed to do, hold criminals accountable.

Our new tech reality. I’ve seen very talented friends and co-workers let go and struggle to find new work. That is terrifying. https://mas.to/@carnage4life/112544158114208671

Can anyone point me to a good beginners guide to developing iOS Apps? I have a friend who’s interested and I don’t have a good answer for them. Thank you!

I obviously haven’t paid attention to one part of our yard. Now, it’s covered in poison ivy. I’m a big dummy. 🤣

@fahrni@curmudgeon.cafe avatar

@StevenJV I’m pulling it off the trees, very carefully. What do you use on it to kill it off? Roundup or something better?

@BillSaysThis @StevenJV 😳

I can keep some for you, Bill. I’ve had that crap all over my arms before. No thank you.

fahrni,
@fahrni@curmudgeon.cafe avatar

@StevenJV @BillSaysThis Yep. Our first year here I tangled with it and my arms were covered. I was miserable.

We also had English Ivy, which I like, but Kim is allergic to it. It does to her what poison ivy does to everyone else.

@BillSaysThis @StevenJV Now do you wanna come help, Bill? 🤣

Personally, I’d stay on the island paradise, but that’s just me. 😝

@rickscully Can they eat that stuff?

@StevenJV I’ll have to get some. I’m sure everyone around here carries it.

@rickscully That’s crazy. 😳

When web dev came along and we got OSS things became a lot more difficult. Set this up l, then that, then this thing over here. Oh, and don’t forget to change this script line.

I miss the days of pulling code, loading a project, and pressing the build button and have it work right away. That’s the sign of a great setup.

Of course, at that time, we wrote all our code. No packages. Just a bunch of C/C++ using OS supplied libraries. https://ruby.social/@floehopper/112320497687443542

Money doesn't buy happiness is something rich people say, because they can't figure out why people don't like them.

@RickiTarr @lisamelton I don’t remember where I heard this but it’s stuck with me:

“Money can’t buy happiness but can solve a lot of problems.”

Solving a lot of problems can lead to happiness. Sounds like this young lady found that out.

New York Times 🎁🔗

"Donald J. Trump, the former president and presumptive 2024 Republican nominee, was convicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in a case stemming from a payment that silenced a porn star."

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer fellow.

Donald J. Trump, convicted felon. Has a really nice ring to ... https://rob.crabapples.net/2024/05/30/new-york-times.html

I guess the judge can go from zero to four years in prison. If he gets zero and a slap on the wrist it would be a real slap in the face to United States Law.

House arrest is a great middle ground. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/donald-trump-convicted-prison-sentence-new-york-criminal-trial/

@tapforms Pretty sure it would be, but, yeah, having him unable to say anything on the Internet would be a great punishment. 😃

    @Teri_Kanefield Linking directly to your blog is a good idea, Teri. It’s a better place to read long form writing. Even if you decide to thread it here a link on the first post would be great!

    I love your work and I’m glad you’re here.

    I like Presidential Nominees who aren’t convicted felons.

    What a loser.

    Also, he’ll delay, delay, delay, and won’t see a day in prison, even if given prison time.

    The rich are treated differently. We little people would be in jail. Orange Man will go home tonight and rage on Truth Social.

    Will his MAGA faithful riot?

    Apple silicon MacBook Pro batteries can't be replaced under warranty by third parties

    Apple requires customers to mail in the Mac to Apple for repair!

    @lapcatsoftware Jeff, just read your post. How long until your AppleCare+ expires? Don’t you want to replace the battery before that?

    Also, this is rediculous. I’ve been considering a Mac Mini as my personal computer, I’ve been using my work machine for personal dev work because they allow it so I no longer own a Mac.

    @fahrni@curmudgeon.cafe avatar

    @lapcatsoftware Ahh, thank you, didn’t know that.
