RealityKit And Reality Composer Pro 3 In 2026
WWDC26 matured Apple's spatial pipeline: RealityKit lighting and cloth, plus a standalone Reality Composer Pro 3 with live preview and Xcode plug-ins.
AI & TechnologyWriting
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Your 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 & TechnologyMLX on Apple Silicon: When You Need Your Own Model, Not Apple's
Foundation Models gives you Apple's sealed on-device LLM. MLX runs your own: quantized open-weight models and LoRA fine-tunes on Apple Silicon.
AI & TechnologyApple's Translation Framework: Free, On-Device, and Sharper Than It Looks
Apple's Translation framework: free on-device translation via translationPresentation and TranslationSession, plus the offline-download edges demos skip.
AI & TechnologyEngineering Philosophy: Jim Keller, Transistors Are Free
Jim Keller architected the chips behind AMD's comeback, the iPhone, Tesla's Autopilot and more -- by spending silicon to remove bottlenecks and rethinking from first principles.
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: Radia Perlman
Radia Perlman invented the Spanning Tree Protocol and built networks that heal themselves -- loop-free, self-stabilizing, and correct even when nodes lie. Robustness as a first principle.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Roberto Ierusalimschy
Roberto Ierusalimschy designed Lua around one principle -- mechanisms, not policy -- a small, fast, embeddable language that hands you the levers instead of the rules.
Engineering & CraftSwift 6.2 Concurrency in Practice: Default to MainActor, Escape on Purpose
Swift 6.2 inverts concurrency: default your module to MainActor (SE-0466), run nonisolated async on the caller (SE-0461), escape with @concurrent.
AI & TechnologyApple Foundation Models: The On-Device LLM Framework, Explained
Apple's Foundation Models framework: LanguageModelSession, @Generable guided generation, tool calling, availability, and when to leave the on-device model.
AI & TechnologyEngineering 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: Salvatore Sanfilippo (antirez)
Salvatore Sanfilippo built Redis around one principle -- do less. A small, single-threaded, in-memory store you can hold in your head, written in C for humans to read.
