I may take Marco Arment’s approach to releasing a big new version this summer and dropping support for iOS 12 in my iOS 13 update.
-
The current shipping version of Unread supports iOS versions 10 through 12. It is quickly becoming apparent that supporting 12-13 will be more much involved than supporting 10-12.

Good crowd at the Boston Rally to Impeach Trump.

I will be at the Boston Rally to Impeach Trump today on the Boston Common at 1:00.
There are also events in other cities.

Tonight’s CocoaHeads Boston agenda includes:
- A SwiftUI presentation by Marc Prud’hommeaux
- A SwiftFest ticket giveaway
- A JetBrains product giveaway
- Open discussion of WWDC announcements
If taking the red line, allow extra time due to fallout from Tuesday’s derailment.
-
I had a build In Review for over 48 hours, until I Developer Rejected it.
Its successor was In Review for 3 minutes before being approved.
-
In Review for 24 hours. 😰

This blog post added a few things to my list of WWDC announcements to check out:

I want to release a major upgrade this summer. Struggling with existing functionality that won’t make sense in iOS 13. Options:
- Include functionality knowing it will go away or change.
- Exclude functionality without the iOS 13-based replacement.
- Postpone until September.
-
CocoaHeads Boston will meet next Thursday, June 13. The agenda includes a presentation on SwiftUI by Marc Prud’hommeaux and an open discussion of WWDC announcements. We will also give away a ticket to SwiftFest and a JetBrains product.

I think there is a squirrel living in the walls of my house.
-
There will be nationwide rallies for impeachment on Saturday, June 15.
The Boston event will be on the Boston Common.
-
A “git bisect” kind of day.
-
SwiftFest is coming back to Boston. July 29-30.

Despite my annoyance at the Mac Pro pricing, I am very excited by today’s keynote. Even without the Mac Pro announcement and without the SwiftUI announcements, it would have been a very impressive set of announcements.
-
Waiting at a bar inside North Station/Boston Garden for my commuter rail train. It’s getting difficult to feign interest in whether the Bruins win this Stanley Cup finals game.

Honestly, I thought the Mac Pro would start at $5k (without a display) and would have iMac Pro-like specs at that starting price. I thought the display would start at $2k tops. Out of my price range, but fair enough.
The base model has 256GB of storage, half of what my $3k 2012 MacBook Pro has. The display stand costs an extra grand.
-
Thoughts from today’s announcements:
- Project Catalyst looks promising.
- The Mac Pro looks incredible, but what a price tag.
- iPadOS 13 looks very interesting.
- I like “Sign In with Apple”, low data mode, dark mode on iOS.
-
Waiting for the train to Boston for the CocoaHeads keynote viewing party. I feel particularly excited for this year’s announcements.
-
Waiting for Review.
(This is a pre-beta build I submitted in order to get in-app purchases approved, but still a big milestone.)
-
I envy folks spending this week in San Jose, but I am also excited to watch the Keynote and Platforms State of the Union at the CocoaHeads Boston viewing party.
-
New iPod Touch purchased and configured. Provisioning profiles updated. Ready for iOS 13 beta.
-
CocoaHeads Boston will be hosting a viewing party for the WWDC Keynote and Platforms State of the Union. Please join us.

Anne Milgram, a former New Jersey Attorney General, tries to read Rod Rosenstein’s absurd resignation letter without cracking up.

I am debating whether to upgrade my 2012 Retina MacBook Pro. I wish a service existed that allowed me to definitively determine the compile time of my own projects on specific hardware models.
If I buy anything it will be after the WWDC keynote.
