SwiftUI Performance and Interop in iOS 27
How iOS 27 SwiftUI handles lazy-stack scrolling, GPU shader effects, and AppKit/UIKit interop, drawn from three official WWDC26 UI Frameworks sessions.
AI & TechnologyWriting
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
What's New in visionOS 27 for Spatial Devs
visionOS 27 adds Spatial Preview from the Mac, Foveated Streaming from a PC, immersive Safari environments, metric-space object tracking, and RealityKit.
AI & TechnologyXcode 27 Went Agentic
Xcode 27 builds coding agents into the IDE: plan-mode feature work, UI prototyping via previews, agent-driven localization, and Xcode Cloud automation.
AI & TechnologyWhat's New in SwiftUI for iOS 27
iOS 27 reworks SwiftUI lists, documents, toolbars, and errors: drag-to-reorder, a readable/writable document model, toolbar overflow, item-based alerts.
AI & TechnologyEvaluations: XCTest for Model Quality (iOS 27)
Apple's Evaluations framework (iOS 27, all platforms) measures AI feature quality in Swift: Evaluator, ScoreDimension, Metric, ToolCallEvaluator, and a Swift Testing trait.
AI & TechnologyYour Agent Has Two Untrusted Inputs
AI agents have two untrusted inputs: code the model writes and tool output it reads. One now has a real WASM sandbox; the other, MCP tool poisoning, does not.
AI & TechnologyEngineering Philosophy: Werner Vogels
Werner Vogels, Amazon's CTO, built the cloud on one assumption: everything fails all the time. Design for failure, minimize blast radius, and stay available through it.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Satoru Iwata
Satoru Iwata was a programmer who became Nintendo's president without ever stopping being a gamer -- technical mastery in service of the player's joy.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Adi Shamir
Adi Shamir is the S in RSA and a master cryptanalyst -- he builds secure systems by also learning to break them. Attack to defend, turning clean number theory into mechanism.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Margaret Hamilton
Margaret Hamilton coined 'software engineering' and wrote the Apollo flight code that survived the 1202 alarm. Defensive design, error recovery, and no second chance.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Kyunghyun Cho
Kyunghyun Cho let models learn their own control structure -- gated memory in the GRU, soft alignment in attention -- and paired it with honest, reproducible science.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Mark Shuttleworth
Mark Shuttleworth built Ubuntu on one idea -- Linux for human beings, free software for everyone -- grounded in ubuntu: humanity to others, shipped on a clock.
